Abstract
Abstract A method of code conversion of messages from a first code having a fixed number of multivalent elements, in particular an nelement binary code, to a second code. The elements of each code word of the first code are projected onto the first n and onto the last n element positions of a code word comprising m positions of the second code, where m is one of the numbers 2n-1 and 2n. The first projection leaves the sequence of the n elements unchanged; the second projection reverses the sequence of the n elements.

Total Claims: 12
Claim 1
Independent Claim
156 words
An arrangement for generating a plurality of signals representing a second code from a plurality of binary coded signals of a first code, said plurality of first code signals comprising n-element address words and said plurality of second code signals comprising m-element words, said arrangement comprising: a register for the storage of signals representing nelements of an address code word of the first code; means for determining a series of m-element positions, each position adapted for receipt of a signal representing a code word element, and means for transferring each element-representing-signal from the register containing said first code word to two of said melement positions of the series of m-element positions so that with a given sequence of the n-element positions, the first nelement positions of the m-element series contain the address code word of the first code in said given sequence and the last n-element positions contain the address code word in the reversed sequence.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
156 words
An arrangement for generating a plurality of signals representing a second code from a plurality of binary coded signals of a first code, said plurality of first code signals comprising n-element address words and said plurality of second code signals comprising m-element words, said arrangement comprising: a register for the storage of signals representing nelements of an address code word of the first code; means for determining a series of m-element positions, each position adapted for receipt of a signal representing a code word element, and means for transferring each element-representing-signal from the register containing said first code word to two of said melement positions of the series of m-element positions so that with a given sequence of the n-element positions, the first nelement positions of the m-element series contain the address code word of the first code in said given sequence and the last n-element positions contain the address code word in the reversed sequence.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
46 words
An arrangement as claimed in claim 1, wherein it comprises an input unit comprising n outputs and a shift register comprising m stages, the n outputs of the input unit being coupled to the first n stages and the last n stages of the shift register.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
112 words
An arrangement as claimed in claim 1, wherein the register for storing the n elements of a code word of the first code is formed by a shift register which is provided with n stages, the shift register being adapted for shifting the information contents in two possible directions, a control unit being provided for shifting the information contents over one stage in one direction a number of times in succession, followed by shifting of the information contents over one stage on the other direction, a number of times on succession one of the stages of the shift register being provided with an output for the code word of the second code.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
85 words
An arrangement as claimed in claim 1, wherein the register for storing the n elements of a code word of the first code comprises n stages, each of the n stages being coupled, via an individual AND-gate and a common OR-gate, to an output for the code word of the second code, a control unit being provided for controlling the AND-gates such that they are first rendered suitable for the transfer of a code element in a given sequence, and subsequently in the reversed sequence.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
149 words
An arrangement for detecting messages transmitted in accordance with a second code developed from an n-element binary first code, the elements of each code word of the first code being projected on the first n positions in given sequence and onto the last n positions in reverse sequence of an m-element second code word, where m is either 2n-1 or 2n, words of said second code being transmitted at least twice in succession without spacing, said arrangement comprising; a shift register having m stages, said shift register having an input for receiving the elements of the code words of the second code; a logic gate having inputs which are coupled to the stages of the shift register; means for integrating, said integration means responsive to the output of the logic gate; and discriminating means responsive to the integrator output for discriminating the level of the voltage of the integrator.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
149 words
An arrangement for detecting messages transmitted in accordance with a second code developed from an n-element binary first code, the elements of each code word of the first code being projected on the first n positions in given sequence and onto the last n positions in reverse sequence of an m-element second code word, where m is either 2n-1 or 2n, words of said second code being transmitted at least twice in succession without spacing, said arrangement comprising; a shift register having m stages, said shift register having an input for receiving the elements of the code words of the second code; a logic gate having inputs which are coupled to the stages of the shift register; means for integrating, said integration means responsive to the output of the logic gate; and discriminating means responsive to the integrator output for discriminating the level of the voltage of the integrator.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
