Abstract
Abstract A subscriber station of a subscriber radio system, wherein a plurality of subscriber stations communicate with a base station through a time division multiplexed radio wave, includes an open-loop frequency control device for determination of a time slot to communicate with the base station. An oscillating frequency of a generator included in the open-loop is selected depending on a transmitting frequency from the base station from among a plurality of frequencies which can be set so that the time slot determined based on one of the plurality of frequencies does not overlap other time slots assigned to other subscriber stations.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim
103 words
A subscriber station of a subscriber radio system which comprises a base station and a plurality of subscriber stations, each subscriber station comprising: estimating means for estimating a difference between a transmitting frequency of said base station and a reference frequency; command means for issuing a command to select one frequency corresponding to said difference; selecting and oscillating means for selecting said one frequency from among a plurality of set frequencies according to said command and for oscillating at said selected frequency; and transmitting means for radio communication with said base station within an assigned time slot determined based on said oscillation frequency.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
103 words
A subscriber station of a subscriber radio system which comprises a base station and a plurality of subscriber stations, each subscriber station comprising: estimating means for estimating a difference between a transmitting frequency of said base station and a reference frequency; command means for issuing a command to select one frequency corresponding to said difference; selecting and oscillating means for selecting said one frequency from among a plurality of set frequencies according to said command and for oscillating at said selected frequency; and transmitting means for radio communication with said base station within an assigned time slot determined based on said oscillation frequency.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
51 words
A subscriber station as claimed in claim 1, wherein said command means comprises a timer for periodically outputting a time-up signal, a holding means for holding said difference when said time-up signal is input, and a selector for selecting said command among a plurality of commands according to said held difference.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
63 words
A subscriber station as claimed in claim 2, wherein said estimating means comprises a reference oscillator which outputs a reference frequency, a comparator which outputs a signal having a voltage proportional to a difference between said transmitting frequency and said reference frequency, and an A/D converter which outputs a digital signal consisting of a plurality of bits representing the magnitude of said voltage.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
50 words
A subscriber station as claimed in claim 3, wherein said selective and oscillating means comprises a DIP-switch to set a plurality of frequency values, and a generator which selects one frequency value from among said plurality of frequency values according to said command and oscillates at said selected frequency value.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
37 words
A subscriber station as claimed in claim 4, wherein said transmitting means is a transmitter-receiver circuit which radio communicates with said base station within said assigned time slot determined based on said oscillation frequency of said generator.
