Abstract From the Canadian patent

Prior art digital signal modulation apparatuses for digital orthogonal modulation or VSB filter modulation required high-speed digital ICs for sine and cosine calculation and multiplication, due to the high carrier frequency. The present modulation apparatus modulates digital signals by a complex modulation wave of frequency f c which is determined to be f c =f if - n ~ f symb, where f if is a carrier frequency and f symb is a symbol rate of input digital signals. The apparatus raises the frequency of the input signal by multiples of f symb with an interpolation device, selects only a frequency range of the carrier frequency f if with a complex bandpass filter BPF, chooses a real part or an …

Why it's free to use

  • Filed September 28, 1998. No grant is recorded for it in Canada; had it been granted, its 20-year term would have ended September 28, 2018.
  • A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by September 28, 2020.
  • We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
