    摘要: At a receiver for binary or other digital message signals, the incoming signals are fed in parallel to a first decision network with a relatively low threshold and a second decision network with a relatively high threshold, the latter being adjustable. The output of the first decision network is delivered to a utilization circuit and in parallel therewith, together with the output of the second decision network, to a comparator emitting a pseudo-error pulse in response to any divergence in the two outputs. A counter stepped by the pseudo-error pulses, upon reaching a predetermined count, triggers a pulse generator producing a binary voltage v.sub.i whose mean value v.sub.u, obtained by integration, is a measure of signal degradation. Under the control of this mean value v.sub.u the threshold of the second decision network is automatically varied in the opposite sense to maintain a substantially constant pseudo-error rate. Another comparator, on detecting a lowering of this threshold beyond a permissible minimum, triggers an alarm circuit to bring about a manual or automatic switchover to another transmission channel. The voltage v.sub.u or its reciprocal, the variable threshold, may be continuously monitored by visual inspection and/or automatic recording.

    摘要: An apparatus for performing sequence detection on a stream of incoming bits comprises a memory and circuitry coupled to the memory. The circuitry is operative, for each bit of the stream of incoming bits, to overwrite a first binary number presently stored in the memory with a second binary number, and to provide an output indicative of when the second binary number is equal to a predetermined value. The output indicative of when the second binary number is equal to the predetermined value is, in turn, indicative of when a binary number constructed by the stream of incoming bits is divisible by a prescribed integer.

    摘要: A signal detector comprises a signal translator, a data signal detector, a clock signal detector and an inputting control circuit for detecting abnormal clock and data signals. The signal translator respectively converts differential data signals and differential clock signal into a single data signal and a single clock signal. The data signal detector outputs a data detecting signal according to the single data signal. The clock signal detector outputs a clock detecting signal according to the single clock signal. The interrupting control circuit receives the data detecting signal and outputs a shutdown signal when the single data signal is at high voltage level over a predefined ratio. The interrupting control circuit also receives the clock detecting signal and outputs the shutdown signal when the single clock signal abnormally disappears.

    摘要: An adaptive data slicer which functions to adapt to changes in the properties of a signal input thereto by producing a near optimal slicing threshold in accordance with the input signal for use in a decision circuit. The slicing level is considered optimal when its use in the decision circuit minimizes the bit error probability. The data slicer utilizes two peak detectors, a maximum peak detector for detecting the highest levels of the input signal and a minimum peak detector for detecting the lowest levels of the input signal.

    摘要: A receiver for receiving transmitted digital signals including either two level or four level symbols that are interleaved in a predetermined pattern in a frame format consisting of a plurality of successive data segments. The symbols are converted into ten bit numbers that are soft sliced to generate four bit numbers representing ranges of values within which each ten bit number may fall. The data represented by the four bit numbers is deinterleaved, a birate flag is generated that identifies the nature of each four bit number, i.e. whether it represents a two level symbol or a four level symbol, and a hard slicer operates, in response to the birate flag, for converting each of the four bit numbers to corresponding two bit binary outputs.

    摘要: A light-receiving circuit according to the present invention incorporates an amplifier 12 having differential output terminals, and it is intended that normal-phase and inverted-phase outputs (Vp, -Vp) of the amplifier 12 be supplied to a comparator 34 at an appropriate threshold level at all times. To achieve this intention, a peak-value voltage (Vi) of the normal-phase and inverted-phase outputs of the amplifier 12 is detected by a peak value detector 26, and is converted into a current by means of a voltage-current converter 28 having a mutual conductance of gm. The voltage-current converter 28 has differential output terminals, from which a normal-phase output (I.sub.+ =gm.Vi) and an inverted-phase output (I.sub.- =gm.Vi) are produced, respectively. The currents (I.sub.+, I.sub.-) are converted into voltages by means of resistors R10 and R12. The resultant currents are subtracted from the normal-phase and inverted-phase outputs (Vp, -Vp) of the amplifier 12, respectively, so that the normal-phase and inverted-phase outputs (Vp, -Vp) are shifted in level to the degree corresponding to the same voltage. The signals, thus shifted in level, are supplied to the normal-phase and inverted-phase input terminals of the comparator 34.

    摘要: A comparator-based digital data separator is modified to operate in noisy signal environments, with signals characterized by extreme duty cycle. A demodulated binary signal is passed through a pair of diodes which produce a slack voltage. The signal is then passed through an RC low-pass filter, and is finally connected to an input of the comparator as the reference voltage. The low-pass filter, which provides the D.C. averaged voltage to the threshold comparator, receives current into its own input only when the demodulated signal excursions exceed the existing threshold voltage by more than the slack voltage. Consequently, assuming there exists a sufficiently large recovered signal, the voltage being used as the decision threshold will remain separated from the recovered signal excursion peaks by at least the amount of slack voltage. In so doing, the binary data separation is given improved noise immunity and reduced sensitivity to duty cycle variations.
