Abstract
Abstract A method is described for phase regulating a received timing signal in a data transmission system wherein the transmissions contain partial response pulses. In a receiver the composite transmitted signal is reproduced, and it generally differs from certain given values. A sampling signal having amplitudes indicating these differences is produced. The sampling signal is multiplied by a factor signal to produce a multiplicative signal. The latter is integrated to produce a regulating signal used for making the aforementioned phase adjustment.

Claims Analysis

Claim 1
Independent Claim
201 words
A method of regulating the phase of timing signals in a data transmission system comprising the steps of: producing from a data signal to be transmitted, a transmitted composite signal containing partial response pulses having amplitudes which, at predetermined sampling times, deviate from predetermined positive, negative or mean amplitudes, generating, at a receiver, a sampling signal having amplitudes corresponding to the deviations of the amplitudes of said transmitted composite signal from said predetermined mean amplitude, generating a received data signal by decoding the sampling signal, delaying the received data signal by two pulse train periods, gating the combination of the received data signal and the delayed data signal to produce a factor signal having amplitudes representing the binary values 0, -1 and +1 corresponding, respectively, to when the binary values of the received data signal and the delayed data signal differ from one another, are of the same first binary value and are of the same second binary value, multiplying the amplitudes of said sampling signal and said factor signal to produce a multiplicative signal, integrating said multiplicative signal and deriving therefrom a regulating signal, and regulating the phase of said timing signal response to the value of said regulating signal.
Claim 2

Claim 3
Dependent Claim
45 words
