发明名称 RADIO-SYNCHRONOUS SIGNAL RECEIVER FOR ADJUSTING A TIME BASE, AND METHOD FOR ACTIVATING THE RECEIVER
摘要 The receiver (1) is for receiving radio-synchronous signals for adjusting the time base of a timepiece. The receiver includes an antenna (2) for receiving radio-synchronous signals, a low noise amplifier (3), connected to the antenna, a frequency conversion unit (7) for converting the frequency of the filtered and amplified incoming signals from the amplifier, and a processing unit (8) receiving data signals (data_out) from the conversion unit for adjusting the time base. The conversion unit includes a local oscillator stage (10) with a quartz (12) for supplying oscillating signals (Sm) at a determined frequency, a mixer unit (4) for mixing the incoming signals with the oscillating signals from the oscillator stage to generate intermediate signals (IF), a bandpass filter (5) for filtering the intermediate signals (IF), and a demodulator (6) receiving the filtered intermediate signals and supplying the data signals. The local oscillator stage is configured automatically by a control signal (Cm) from the processing unit to adapt the frequency of the oscillating signals (Sm) in accordance with the incoming radio-synchronous signal frequency, so that the intermediate signal (IF) frequency is within the frequency band of the bandpass filter.
