Various embodiments are described herein for a universal television receiver that is capable of processing television channel signals, that are transmitted according to a variety of broadcast standards, to provide video and audio information for a desired television channel signal. The processing includes producing a coarse channel signal that includes a desired television channel signal and then applying resampling techniques to adjust a normalized bandwidth of the desired television channel signal to generally correspond to the normalized passband of a main filter that is used for each of the broadcast standards.

Method and apparatus for extracting a desired television signal from a wideband IF input using re-sampling

Various embodiments are described herein for automatic gain control techniques that can be used by a universal television receiver that is capable of processing television channel signals broadcast according to a variety of analog and digital broadcast standards.

Automatic gain control system

Various embodiments are described herein for a universal television receiver that is capable of processing television channel signals broadcast according to a variety of analog and digital broadcast standards. In particular, various embodiments are provided for avoiding interferers in a desired television channel signal and these embodiments generally include changing sampling rate, shifting certain oscillation frequencies or changing sampling rate and shifting certain oscillation frequencies.

Interference avoidance in a television receiver

Various embodiments are described herein for a universal television receiver that is capable of processing television channel signals broadcast according to a variety of analog and digital broadcast standards. Analog processing includes using coarse filtering with pass bands that are wide enough to accommodate frequency shifts in a desired television channel signal and analog circuitry variability and digital processing includes tracking a carrier frequency of the desired television channel signal to generate and apply a frequency shift feedback signal to compensate for frequency shifts in the carrier frequency.
