Abstract

Abstract A circuit arrangement for data transmission systems is described wherein the transmission of excessively faulty data signals is recognized and prevented, thereby stopping the transmission of senseless text. A fault discriminator emits a fault signal which is subsequently integrated. The integrated fault signal, if it exceeds a predetermined value, triggers a threshold value stage to produce a blocking signal. The blocking signal acts on the circuitry in a data sink, e.g., a teleprinter, to suppress the processing of the received data.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim 94 words
A circuit arrangement for preventing reception of faulty data transmitted from a data source to a data sink in a data transmission system having a fault discriminator which emits a fault signal when there is a fault in the data signal, comprising: integrating means for receiving said fault signal and producing therefrom an integrated fault signal, threshold signal means for producing a blocking signal when said integrated fault signal reaches or exceeds a predetermined value, and blocking means responsive to said blocking signal for blocking the processing of said data in said data sink.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 94 words
A circuit arrangement for preventing reception of faulty data transmitted from a data source to a data sink in a data transmission system having a fault discriminator which emits a fault signal when there is a fault in the data signal, comprising: integrating means for receiving said fault signal and producing therefrom an integrated fault signal, threshold signal means for producing a blocking signal when said integrated fault signal reaches or exceeds a predetermined value, and blocking means responsive to said blocking signal for blocking the processing of said data in said data sink.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 49 words
The circuit arrangement defined in claim 1 wherein said integrating means comprises a bidirectional digital counter operable to count a given value in accordance with the value of said fault signal and including means for producing said integrated fault signal in parallel binary form from a plurality of outputs.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 26 words
The circuit arrangement defined in claim 2 wherein said threshold signal means comprises a decoder having inputs connected to said binary outputs of said digital counter.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 65 words
The circuit arrangement defined in claim 1 wherein said data comprising information bits and parity bits are transmitted to a data receiver and further comprising: fault decoder means comprising an information bit register for receiving and storing said information bits, a parity bit register for receiving and storing said parity bits and means responsive to the contents of said registers for producing said fault signal.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 65 words
The circuit arrangement defined in claim 4 wherein said fault signal comprises first signals indicative of a fault and second signals indicating correct data which are complementary to said first signals and further comprising: pulse sequence altering means connected between said fault discriminator and said integrating means for increasing the frequency of said first fault signal and decreasing the frequency of said second fault signal.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 27 words
The circuit arrangement defined in claim 1 wherein said data sink is a teleprinter including means for emitting a continuous stop polarity responsive to said blocking signal.
