TRANSMISSION SYSTEM HAVING RECEIVER FOR RECOVERING WORDS FROM SEQUENCE OF SYMBOLS

摘要

In a transmission system a sequence of digital symbols comprising concatenated words, is transmitted by a transmitter (2) via a transmission medium (14) to a receiver (16). In order to reduce the transmission capacity no word synchronising symbols are introduced in the sequence of digital symbols. In order to achieve word synchronisation, a synchronisation processor estimates the probability function of one single predetermined string as function of the position of said string in the sequence. From this probability function the correct position of the words is derived.
