The invention provides a system for dynamic distribution of processing time during a frame in a station operating in time-division multiple access mode. The system comprises a set of N independent configurable processing resources respectively associated with N time windows in the frame, where N is a predetermined integer greater than 1. The N configurable processing resources can be configured to yield N respective configured processing resources each of which is activated for a respective particular processing operation for which it has been configured. Each of the N previously configured configurable processing resources is activated so that the respective particular processing operations are effected during the frame.

Dynamic processing time distribution system for use in a time-division

A device is provided for selecting reception signals as a function of their power, the reception signals being identified by their frequency and being structured into frames made up by a number of time slots. Power is calculated for each one of the signals being explored using as a basis measurements carried out on several selected time slots that correspond to the signal during a series of repetitive analysis periods. The selected time slot of the first signal explored during an analysis period bearing a number less than or equal to the number of time slots that make up a frame occupies a different position in the frame from the positions that it occupied during preceding analysis periods.

A digital signal is equalized, for example in cellular radio systems, to combat intersymbol interference. Each sample received is associated with an estimated symbol representing the transmitted symbol. The equalization process comprises an iterative stage of intersymbol interference elimination, each iteration comprising for each sample of a set of received samples whose value has not been determined during a previous iteration: comparing said sample with at least one confidence threshold and if said sample exceeds any of said thresholds: associating with said sample an estimated symbol whose value depends on said threshold exceeded, the value of said sample being then determined; and eliminating the intersymbol interference caused to other samples belonging to said set of received samples by said estimated symbol.

A digital cellular radiocommunication system includes a circuit for evaluating the frequency difference between a local signal and the carrier wave of a receive signal which are close together in frequency, the receive signal having been subjected to phase state modulation by a modulation signal and thus having a phase that includes a transmission phase shift, a modulation phase shift corresponding to one of a plurality of phase states, and a synchronization phase shift due to the frequency difference. The circuit produces samples of the receive signal from which the transmission phase shift has been eliminated, detects the modulation phase shift of the samples in order to eliminate it, produces the mean phase of a series of samples, and produce the frequency difference on the basis of the mean phase of at least two series of samples and on the basis of the time interval between the middles of the series.
