Rundfunkinformationsempfang in einem Fernsehempfänger durch alleinige Synthese der Zentralfrequenz

摘要

A television receiver includes a single tuner (102) for tuning both television channels and broadcast FM stations. The tuner (102) is operated at a fixed gain setting in FM reception mode. The tuner (102) serves as the first conversion stage of a double conversion FM receiver, wherein the mixer (180d) of an FM radio integrated circuit serves as the second coversion stage. The arrangement operates at a specific and non-arbitrary first IF frequency. The FM receiver is also capable of automatically receiving information service broadcasts on that one of the information service allocated frequencies which is operating in a listener's area. The receiver provides an on-screen display (410) of the currently tuned FM channel number.
