Abstract

Abstract A carrier reproducing circuit for demodulating a signal transmitted by a pulse coded modulation-multiphase modulation system in which the output of a carrier extracting circuit is sampled by a clock pulse of a bit repetitive frequency in a sampling circuit and the sampled output is applied to a band-pass filter having a pass band of a carrier frequency to reproduce a carrier of reduced phase jitter.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim 165 words
In a system wherein a carrier having a known carrier frequency is modulated with information comprising bits occurring at a known bit repetitive frequency differing from the carrier frequency by a pulse-coded modulation-multiphase modulation transmitter to produce a signal for transmission, and having a receiver for the transmitted signal, wherein the transmitted signal as received is subject to jitter, a carrier reproducing circuit for use in the receiver for recovering and reproducing the carrier frequency of the received signal, substantially free of the effects of jitter, comprising: a. carrier extracting means to which the received signal is supplied, for extracting the carrier component therefrom; b. sampling means responsive to a clock signal of the said known bit repetitive frequency for sampling the extracted carrier component output of said carrier extracting means to provide a discontinuous output signal therefrom; and c. band-pass filter means for receiving and filtering the discontinuous output signal of said sampling means and having a bandpass substantially equal to the carrier frequency.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 165 words
In a system wherein a carrier having a known carrier frequency is modulated with information comprising bits occurring at a known bit repetitive frequency differing from the carrier frequency by a pulse-coded modulation-multiphase modulation transmitter to produce a signal for transmission, and having a receiver for the transmitted signal, wherein the transmitted signal as received is subject to jitter, a carrier reproducing circuit for use in the receiver for recovering and reproducing the carrier frequency of the received signal, substantially free of the effects of jitter, comprising: a. carrier extracting means to which the received signal is supplied, for extracting the carrier component therefrom; b. sampling means responsive to a clock signal of the said known bit repetitive frequency for sampling the extracted carrier component output of said carrier extracting means to provide a discontinuous output signal therefrom; and c. band-pass filter means for receiving and filtering the discontinuous output signal of said sampling means and having a bandpass substantially equal to the carrier frequency.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 58 words
