METHOD, DEVICE, AND RADIO FOR COMPENSATING FOR MODULATOR FREQUENCY DRIFT WHILE ALLOWING FOR DATA TRANSMISSION

摘要

A method (100), a device (300), and a radio (500) are described for compensating for modulator frequency drift while allowing for data transmission in a half-duplex frequency modulated communication system. An adjustment is made to a premodulation signal in such a way that when it is passed through a frequency modulator to provide a transmitter excitation signal, frequency drift is corrected. Subsequent to determining a training command, the transmitter excitation signal passes through a switch to a demodulator. The demodulator output is averaged and used in the adjustment.
