Claim 4

A transmitting circuit for a simulcast by a plurality of base stations, comprising: a controlling unit for controlling said transmitting circuit; a data input matching unit controlled by a control signal from said controlling unit for matching page data if said page data is input from a paging system; a modem controlled by said control signal generated by said controlling unit for modulating input page data if said page data matched from said data input matching unit is input; an automatic adjustment delay circuit for automatically delaying data output in synchronism with a reference clock by receiving said page data output from said modem as its first input and receiving said reference clock supplied from a reference clock supplying unit as its second input; a frequency synthesizing unit for receiving and frequency-synthesizing the data automatically delayed by said automatic adjustment delay circuit and output therefrom; and a radio frequency transmitting unit for transmitting said page data output from said frequency synthesizing unit.

Claim 5

A transmitting circuit for a simulcast by a plurality of base stations, as claimed in claim 2, wherein said automatic adjustment delay circuit comprises: a down-counting unit for counting input page data in synchronism with said reference clock; a latching unit for latching a down-counted value counted by synchronizing said input page data with a reference clock; and a delay circuit unit for delaying said page data by the amount latched in said latching unit.

Claim 6

An automatic adjustment delay method for a simulcast of a paging system, comprising the steps of: supplying a synchronization signal used as a reference clock with a reference clock supplying unit; receiving said page data and transmitting the same in synchronism with said reference clock supplied from said reference clock supplying unit with a page data transmission board installed within said paging system; transmitting said page data to said base stations with a plurality of transmission lines and transmission facilities, installed between respective base stations and said page data transmission board; and receiving said page data transmitted via said transmission lines and transmission facilities and externally transmitting said page data in synchronism with said reference clock generated by said reference clock supplying unit with respective transmitters installed within said respective base stations; wherein said step of receiving and transmitting said page data by the page data transmission board comprises the steps of; detecting an interrupt signal generated in said reference clock supplying unit with a controlling unit; storing page data in a memory unit controlled by a control signal generated from said controlling unit; and outputting said page data stored in said memory unit with a serial data input/output unit controlled by said control signal generated by said controlling unit.

Claim 7

An automatic adjustment delay method for a simulcast of a paging system, comprising the steps of: supplying a synchronization signal used as a reference clock with a reference clock supplying unit; receiving said page data and transmitting the same in synchronism with said reference clock supplied from said reference clock supplying unit with a page data transmission board installed within said paging system; transmitting said page data to said base stations with a plurality of transmission lines and transmission facilities, installed between respective base stations and said page data transmission board; and receiving said page data transmitted via said transmission lines and transmission facilities and externally transmitting said page data in synchronism with said reference clock generated by said reference clock supplying unit with respective transmitters installed within said respective base stations; wherein said step of receiving and transmitting said page data by the page data transmission board comprises the steps of; detecting an interrupt signal generated in said reference clock supplying unit with a controlling unit; storing page data in a memory unit controlled by a control signal generated from said controlling unit; and outputting said page data stored in said memory unit with a serial data input/output unit controlled by said control signal generated by said controlling unit.

Claim 10

A method transmitting with a transmitting circuit for a simulcast by a plurality of base stations, as claimed in claim 5, wherein said step of delaying data output by said automatic adjustment delay circuit comprises the steps of: counting input page data in synchronism with said reference clock with a down-counting unit; latching in a latching unit a down-counted value counted by synchronizing said input page data with a reference clock; and delaying said page data by the amount latched in said latching unit with a delay circuit unit.
