Patent attributes
A reference oscillator arrangement is provided for a communication apparatus capable of communicating according to a plurality of transport formats. The reference oscillator arrangement comprises a reference oscillator controller; a resonator core comprising a reference resonator and a driving circuit for the reference resonator, wherein the resonator core is arranged to provide an oscillating signal at a frequency of the reference resonator; and a reference oscillator buffer arrangement, connected to the resonator core, comprising an active circuit arranged to provide a reference oscillator output based on the oscillating signal. The reference oscillator controller is arranged to receive information about an applied transport format and control the driving circuit and/or the active circuit based on the information about the applied transport format. An oscillator arrangement, a communication device, methods therefor and a computer program are also disclosed.
