Receiving circuit, method for receiving a signal, and use of a detection circuit and a control circuit
First Claim
1. An apparatus, comprising:
- a detection circuit configured to process a digital signal to determine a current frame comprising digital data from the digital signal, the digital signal converted from an analog signal received by a node in a radio network;
a check circuit configured to;
check the current frame of the digital data; and
output at least one test signal based at least on the check of the current frame of the digital data; and
a control circuit configured to;
deactivate, in response to receiving the at least one test signal indicating a positive result of the check, one or more of the following processes;
the conversion of the analog signal to the digital signal; and
a determination of a following frame comprising digital data from the digital signal; and
reactivate, based at least on the current frame being loaded in an arithmetic logic unit, the deactivated one or more of the following processes;
the conversion of the analog signal to the digital signal; and
the determination of a following frame comprising digital data from the digital signal.

Abstract
A receiving circuit, method for receiving a signal, and use of a detection circuit and a control circuit of a receiving circuit of a node of a radio network is provided to deactivate an analog signal processing and/or determination of digital data from a signal received over an antenna of the node, when a stored current frame of the digital data has been recognized as valid, and to activate the analog signal processing and/or the determination, when the transmission of the current frame over an interface of the control circuit has been confirmed, whereby the control circuit is connected to the detection circuit and/or an input circuit for deactivation and activation, and whereby the detection circuit is formed to determine the digital data from the received signal.
