Abstract
Abstract A method for encoding and decoding successive information trains serially coded wherein each information bit is transmitted during a determined time interval, at least one level change appearing for each bit during this time interval, wherein, during the encoding, each information train is preceded by a heading having a time duration of two determined time intervals during which a code violation is carried out so that, during at least one time interval, no transition appears and wherein, while decoding, said violation is detected for finding the heading.

Claims Analysis

Claim 1
Independent Claim
168 words
A method for encoding and decoding successive information trains coded according to the Manchester code, that is a serial code in which each information bit is transmitted as the succession during a determined time interval of a first level and a second level for a "1" and the succession during the same time interval of a second level and a first level for a "0," wherein, during the encoding, each information train is preceded by a heading having a duration of two determined time intervals during which a code violation is carried out, characterized in that: during a duration longer than a determined time interval, the coded signal is at the same level, and wherein, at the decoding, this longer time duration is detected for finding said heading, said violation being comprised of a first level during a time interval followed with a Manchester "1" during the following time interval, whereby said coded signal is at the first level during at least one and a half time intervals.
