ABSTRACT:
The numbers of cycles in a received signal including Doppler frequency spread are counted (36) modulo a base value much smaller than the number of cycles in such received signal during a predetermined measuring interval for thereby averaging out the effects of such frequency spread in the counter output. That output is utilized to control the frequency of a local oscillator (26) to lock it to the frequency of the received signals. The actual duration of the measuring interval is set (39) in accordance with a signal provided from the oscillator. Also shown are circuits (45, 23) for causing the oscillator initially to lock to a radio system master reference frequency and thereafter to lock, in a narrow frequency band, to a pilot frequency of a specified information channel.
