SELECTIVE CALLING RECEIVER FOR COMPUTING DEVICES

A selective calling receiver connectable to a computing device which is capable of reading or writing information particular to the receiver. An external signal transmission device is provided independently of the computing device and sends an optical signal (code) to the receiver. The receiver receives the optical signal with a light-sensitive section thereof and compares it with a code assigned to the receiver. Only if the two codes are identical with each other, the receiver allows the computing device to access it. Therefore, the information particular to the receiver cannot be written to or read out of the receiver without the external signal transmission device. This prevents a person, simply obtained program software meant for the receiver, from writing or reading the particular information in or out of the receiver, thereby securing the receiver from improper use.

Radio receiver frequency control system

(57)Abstract Frequency control in a miniature receiver is effected by a synthesizer (42) that is operated briefly to provide a tuning vol-tage to a voltage controlled local oscillator (85). A capacitor is shunted across the output of the synthesizer (42) and is charged to the level of the tuning voltage. After the capacitor is charged, the synthesizer (42) is deenergized and the diminishing voltage pro-vided to the oscillator (85) by the discharging capacitor is correspondingly supplemented by an AFC voltage that tracks drift of the received signal in the IP passband. The deenergizing of the synthesizer eliminates synthesizer noise and reduces the receiver's power consumption.

수신기 고유 정보를 가입 및 판독할 수 있는 컴퓨팅 장치에 접속가능한 선택적 호출 수신기가 기술된다. 외부 신호 송신기가 컴퓨팅 장치와 별도로 제공되어, 수신기에 광 신호(코드)를 보낸다. 수신기는 광 감지부로 광 신호를 수신하여, 이것을 수신기에 할당된 코드와 비교한다. 2개의 코드들이 서로 동일한 경우에만, 수신기는 컴퓨팅 장치가 수신기로 액세스하는 것을 허용한다. 그러므로, 수신기 고유 정보는 외부 신호 송신기가 없이는 수신기로부터 판독되거나 수신기에 기입될 수 없다. 이것은 단순히 수신기용 프로그램 소프트웨어 내용을 입수한 사람이 수신기에 수신기 고유 정보를 기입하거나 수신기로부터 수신기 고유 정보를 판독하는 것을 방지하여, 부적절한 사용으로부터 수신기를 보호한다.

Selective call receiver with computer interface message notification

A selective call messaging peripheral (100) capable of receiving at least one message and communicating it to an electronic information processing device (200) comprises a microcontroller (105) including a processor (106) for executing a microcode program that controls operation of the peripheral and a receiver (103) that operates to receive and demodulate an information signal to provide a recovered information signal including an address signal and the message. A correlator (109) compares the recovered address signal with a predetermined address and generates an address detection, indicating selection of the peripheral. A PCMCIA memory only interface (119) communicates notification of address detection to the electronic information processing device (200), and in response to a message read command received from the electronic information processing device (200), the microcontroller (105) configures the Personal Computer Memory Card Interface Association (PCMCIA) interface (119) to permit the electronic information processing device (200) to read the message from the peripheral (100).

Portable radio apparatus equipped with function to display received message information

A portable radio apparatus comprises: a receiving unit for receiving message information transmitted by a radio wave; input/output terminals for transmitting/receiving information between the portable radio apparatus and an external device equipped with a data processing function; a storage unit for storing both of message information received by the receiving unit and the information inputted via the input/output terminals; a reading unit for selectively reading the information stored in the storage unit; and a display unit for displaying the information read from the reading unit. The apparatus fetches reception message information or the like stored in the storage unit via the input/output terminals so as to perform various processes such as display, correction and arrangement of the message information, and also other processes to store in the storage unit, information about telephone directory data and schedule data useful for the portable radio apparatus.
