Abstract A facsimile receiver includes a demodulator system for converting a received MH code (Modified Huffman Code) signal into a signal representing actual run length information. The demodulator system comprises a demodulation table ROM for comparing the received MH code signal with MH codes stored therein. The leading "0" included in the received MH code signal is counted to provide a portion of an input data to be applied to the demodulation table ROM. When the received MH code signal relates to the terminating code and the input data to the demodulation table ROM becomes identical with one of MH codes stored in the demodulation table ROM, an output data of the demodulation table ROM is utilized without modification to obtain the actual run length information. When the received MH code signal relates to the makup code and the input data to the demodulation table ROM becomes identical with one of the MH codes stored in the demodulation table ROM, six lower bit zero's are added to the output data of the demodulation table ROM to obtain the actual run length information.
A demodulator system for a facsimile receiver comprising: a programmed demodulation table for converting received MH code (Modified Huffman Code) information into run length information; input means for sequentially shifting said received MH code information and applying an input data to said programmed demodulation table; feed-back means for feeding back a portion of an output data from said programmed demodulation table to said programmed demodulation table as a portion of the input data thereto until said input data corresponds to any one of MH codes programmed in said programmed demodulation table; and output means for forming run length information through the use of the output data derived from said programmed demodulation table when the input data applied to said programmed demodulation table becomes identical with any one of MH codes programmed in said programmed demodulation table.

Claim 3
Dependent Claim

The demodulator system of claim 1, further comprising: counter means for counting a leading "0" included in the received MH code information; and transfer means for applying contents stored in said counter means to said programmed demodulation table, thereby obtaining said portion of the output data for feed-back purposes.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
23 words
The demodulator system of claim 1 or 2, wherein said programmed demodulation table comprises a read only memory having eight bit output terminals.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
27 words
The demodulator system of claim 3 further comprising detection means for detecting whether the received MH code information relates to terminating code information or makeup code information.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
85 words
The demodulator system of claim 4, wherein said output means forms the run length information without modifying the output data derived from said programmed demodulation table when said detection means indicates that the received MH code information relates to the terminating code information, and said output means forms the run length information by adding six lower bit zero's to the output data derived from said programmed demodulation table when said detection means indicates that the received MH code information relates to the makeup coded information.
