A decimation and channel filter ( or ) in an oversampled system includes a combined decimation and channel filtering architecture for simultaneously processing in-phase and quadrature phase complex input signals. A decimation filter ( ) of the combined decimation and channel filter provides sampled outputs to a memory ( ) to provide an intermediate result ( ), which is stored in the memory ( ) in a first format ( ). A channel filter ( ) of the combined decimation and channel filter processes ( ) a decimation final result of the decimation filter in a second format in the memory to provide a final result. This architecture minimizes cost and current drain in a complex signal path decimation and channel filtering process. In addition, a channel filtering algorithm is used to ideally minimize current drain by a factor of 2.

An automatic simulcast correction method ( ) for a selective call receiver ( ) includes the steps of measuring a received signal ( ) for a received signal strength indication measurement and then determining if a protocol indicates a simulcast signal ( ). If the received signal strength indication measurement is above a predefined threshold and the protocol indicates the simulcast signal, then the selective call receiver is optimized for simulcast delay spread distortion ( ). If the received signal strength indication measurement is below a predefined threshold or the protocol does not indicate the simulcast signal, then the selective call receiver is optimized for static sensitivity (.

A full serial implementation of a M-level correlation based demodulator ( ) includes a twos complement, pass-through, zero-out complex conjugate multiplier element ( ), a boxcar filter ( ) coupled to the multiplier element, a complex magnitude approximater element ( ) coupled to the boxcar filter and a maximum value and index holding element ( ). The multiplier element reuses common products along an M-level of cross-correlation to reduce multiplication functions at a rate 2 times M faster than a sampling rate at an input of the demodulator.

A transceiver device (50) acting as a master (2) among a plurality of communication devices (1 and 12) potentially acting as slaves to the master (2). The transceiver device (50) includes a transmitter (68), a receiver (54) coupled to the transmitter (68), and a processor (58) coupled to the transmitter (68) and the receiver (54). The processor (58) is programmed to poll the slaves at a first interval and then receive a communication request while polling from a first slave of the plurality of communication devices to communicate with at least a second slave of the plurality of communication devices. The master (2) then designates communication parameters for communication between the first slave and at least the second slave and then polls at a re-polling interval the first slave and at least the second slave to confirm the termination of communication between the first slave and at least the second slave.
