Abstract From the Canadian patent

Timing recovery, with or without frame synchronization in a cellular TDMA , communications system is carried out by a method comprising estimating indirect variables, which embody sampling delay information of a linear , complex vector using a maximum likelihood criterion and recovering the , sampling delay from the estimated indirect variables. For recovering the sampling delay, an optimal procedure and three sub-optimal but , computationally simpler, procedures are described along with their physical , implementations. For frame synchronization the timing recovery sampling delay , is supplemented by a number of sample spacings determined by a maximum of signal amplitudes of a plurality …

Why it's free to use

  • Filed June 26, 1996 and granted June 25, 2002. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended June 26, 2016.
  • A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by June 26, 2018.
  • We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
