Abstract
Abstract A control device in a transceiver suppresses the generation of unnecessary frequency components which takes place when predetermined control steps are repetitively executed under the control of a clock signal. The repetitive period of the predetermined control steps is intentionally controlled not to become constant.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 16
Claim 1
Independent Claim
107 words
A control device in a transceiver, said control device coupled to at least one of a transmitter and a receiver in said transceiver and capable of controlling processing steps for establishing a radio communication link between said transceiver and a partner transceiver, comprising: a clock source for generating a clock signal having a predetermined frequency; control means for performing a predetermined periodic operation by repetitively executing a plurality of said processing steps in synchronism with said clock signal generated at said clock source; and period adjusting means for changing a period of said periodic operation performed by said control means, such that said period is not constant.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
107 words
A control device in a transceiver, said control device coupled to at least one of a transmitter and a receiver in said transceiver and capable of controlling processing steps for establishing a radio communication link between said transceiver and a partner transceiver, comprising: a clock source for generating a clock signal having a predetermined frequency; control means for performing a predetermined periodic operation by repetitively executing a plurality of said processing steps in synchronism with said clock signal generated at said clock source; and period adjusting means for changing a period of said periodic operation performed by said control means, such that said period is not constant.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
67 words
A control device in a transceiver as set forth in claim 1, wherein said period adjusting means includes means for generating a random number each time said periodic operation is performed by said control means and means for changing the period of said periodic operation performed by said control means by a time corresponding to said random number generated at said means for generating a random number.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
44 words
A control device in a transceiver as set forth in claim 2, wherein said means for changing the period changes said period of said periodic operation at a step in a predetermined location of said plurality of processing steps executed by said control means.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
46 words
A control device in a transceiver as set forth in claim 2, wherein said means for changing the period changes said period of said periodic operation at several steps in a plurality of predetermined locations of said plurality of processing steps executed by said control means.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
73 words
A control device in a transceiver as set forth in claim 1, wherein said period adjusting means includes means for generating a value of a predetermined function each time said periodic operation is performed by said control means and means for changing the period of said periodic operation performed by said control means by a time corresponding to said function value generated by said means for generating a value of a predetermined function.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
64 words
A control device in a transceiver as set forth in claim 5, wherein said means for generating a value of a predetermined function includes means for counting the number of repetition times of said periodic operation performed by said control means to obtain a count value and to generate said function value as a variable of the count value of said means for counting.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
44 words
A control device in a transceiver as set forth in claim 6, wherein said means for generating a value of a predetermined function includes means for resetting said count value each time the count value of said means for counting reaches a predetermined value.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
44 words
A control device in a transceiver as set forth in claim 5, wherein said means for generating a value of a predetermined function includes means for modifying a function equation each time the count value of said means for counting reaches a predetermined value.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
62 words
A control device in a transceiver as set forth in claim 5, wherein said means for generating a value of a predetermined function and said means for changing the period generate the value of said function and change said period of said periodic operation at a step in a predetermined location of said plurality of processing steps executed by said control means.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim
62 words
A control device in a transceiver as set forth in claim 1, wherein said period adjusting means includes means for counting the number of repetition times of said periodic operation performed by said control means to obtain a count value and means for modifying the number of said plurality of processing steps in accordance with the count value of said counting means.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim
26 words
A control device in a transceiver as set forth in claim 10, wherein said modifying means removes a predetermined one of said plurality of processing steps.
Claim 13
Dependent Claim
25 words
A control device in a transceiver as set forth in claim 10, wherein said modifying means adds another step to said plurality of processing steps.
Claim 14
Dependent Claim
32 words
A control device in a transceiver as set forth in claim 10, wherein said modifying means repeatedly performs a particular one of said plurality of processing steps a predetermined number of times.
Claim 15
Dependent Claim
65 words
A control device in a transceiver as set forth in claim 1, wherein said period adjusting means includes means for counting the number of repetition times of said periodic operation performed by said control means to obtain a count value and means for changing the number of said plurality of processing steps each time the count value of said counting means reaches a predetermined value.
Claim 16
Dependent Claim
31 words
A control device in a transceiver as set forth in claim 14, wherein said predetermined value is modified each time the count value of said counting means reaches the predetermined value.
