Abstract

Whenever the oscillator frequency is a fraction or a multiple of the received frequency, another received frequency could in turn be there, which would then work as a kind of received disturbance frequency, and thus oscillator pulling occurs, which then severely impairs evaluation of the received signal. The method according to the invention for driving a receiver stage having a selection means, having a control unit and an oscillator is distinguished by the fact that the selection means is driven such that whenever the oscillator frequency is a fraction or a multiple of a received disturbance frequency, this received disturbance frequency is attenuated by the selection means.
