Abstract
Abstract In a digital data transmission system, a transmitting device converts the data to be transmitted into a series of bits, in the form of data pulses. Each data pulse is positioned between successive synchronous pulses having a fixed time period, and each bit is represented by the time length between a data pulse and a preceding synchronous pulse or a succeeding synchronous pulse. The transmitting device transmits the series of the data pulses and the synchronous pulses. A receiving device receives the series of the data pulses and the synchronous pulses and decodes the same to read the data.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim
99 words
A digital data transmission system comprising a transmitting device for converting the data to be transmitted into a series of bits, each bit being in the form of a data pulse positioned between successive regularly occurring synchronous pulses, each bit being defined by a time length between a data pulse and any of a preceding synchronous pulse and a succeeding synchronous pulse, and for transmitting the series of the data pulses and the synchronous pulses, and a receiving device for receiving the series of the data pulses and the synchronous pulses and decoding the same to read the data.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
99 words
A digital data transmission system comprising a transmitting device for converting the data to be transmitted into a series of bits, each bit being in the form of a data pulse positioned between successive regularly occurring synchronous pulses, each bit being defined by a time length between a data pulse and any of a preceding synchronous pulse and a succeeding synchronous pulse, and for transmitting the series of the data pulses and the synchronous pulses, and a receiving device for receiving the series of the data pulses and the synchronous pulses and decoding the same to read the data.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
21 words
A system according to claim 1, wherein the pulsewidth of the data pulses differs from the pulsewidth of the synchronous pulses.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
28 words
A system according to claim 1, wherein the time length between each of the data bits and the immediately preceding synchronous pulse represents the binary "0" or "1".
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
27 words
A system according to claim 1, wherein the said time length may have either a first value or a second value to represent binary "0" or "1".
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
119 words
A digital control system having a remote controller and a controlled equipment to be controlled in accordance with a signal transmitted from the remote controller, said remote controller converting the control instruction into a series of bits, each bit being in the form of a data pulse positioned between successive regularly occurring synchronous pulses, each bit being defined by a time length between a data pulse and any of a preceding synchronous pulse and a succeeding synchronous pulse, and transmitting the series of the data pulses and the synchronous pulses, and the controlled equipment receiving the series of the data pulses and the synchronous pulses and decoding the same to read the data, and using the data for control.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
119 words
