SYNCHRONOUS DATA TRANSMISSION SYSTEM

摘要

In a QPSK system using one cycle of a squared-off sinusoid per Baud period to represent the data dibits, the following are disclosed: (1) a direct detection circuit using samples taken only during the second and third quarters of the Baud period; (2) timing recovery by recognition of the opposite polarity of any QPSK signal compared to a half-Baud-delayed version of itself; and (3) an encoding scheme wherein only one of the two dibits is differentially encoded.
