Systems and Methods for Dampening TDMA Interference
First Claim
1. A system for mitigating the detrimental effects of interference to an affected device from a mobile telephone utilizing time-domain multiplexing comprising:
- a transmitter in communication with the mobile telephone which sends warning transmissions;
a receiver in communication with the affected device which receives warning transmissions; and
a blanking circuit in communication with the receiver which compensates for the interference upon reception of the warning transmission.

Abstract
Systems and methods are disclosed which relate to mitigating the detrimental effects of interference to electronic devices from mobile telephones utilizing any form of time-domain multiplexing technology. A wireless transmitter inside the mobile telephone broadcasts a warning transmission which can be received by affected devices. Once the warning transmission is received by an affected device, the device activates a blanking circuit comprising an actuator and a switch or switches. The switches open for the duration of the interference so that the user does not receive undesired output such as: noise through a speaker, noise through a microphone, or other interference with electrical signals.
