SYNCHRONISATION DEVICE FOR A FRAME-STRUCTURED DIGITAL TRANSMISSION, AND RECEIVER CONTAINING SUCH A DEVICE

摘要

A synchronization device for digital data frame transmission system comprising an n bit series register transferring its contents at the line frequency to a parallel register also of n bits. The m first bits of the series register are also directed to a logic circuit which tests their conformity with the beginning of the synchronization word. When there is conformity, the logic circuit controls a divider dividing by n which controls, in its turn, at the line frequency divided by n, the transfer of the contents of the parallel register to a PROM memory. The purpose of the PROM is to recognize the entire synchronization word. When there is no recognition, the operation of the divide by n divider is inhibited and the procedure begins again.
