Method for evaluating an input data signal and circuit system for carrying out said method

摘要

A method, a circuit arrangement and an apparatus are provided for evaluating an input data signal transmitted by load modulation. A complex data signal is derived from the input data and a mean value signal of the complex data signal is thereafter derived. A complex signal without mean value is also formed from the difference between the complex data signal and the mean value signal of the complex data signal. A first and second quadratic error signals are derived and subsequently a slope signal is derived from the first and second quadratic signals. The method also comprises deriving an information signal by comparing the imaginary part signal without mean value with a decision threshold signal. The information signal indicates whether a value of the input data signal has been generated in a loaded state or an unloaded state during the load modulation.
