Level regulator of the digital type

摘要

The invention concerns a level regulator for a frequency division multiplex group, having a variable gain network controlled basically by the observing of the amplitude of a pilot wave contained in the multiplex group, comprising a digital filter preceded by a sampling device and an analog-digital converter for extracting the pilot wave from the multiplex group downstream from the variable gain network, a calculation circuit connected to the digital filter for determining a number which is a function of the level, over a predetermined interval of time, of the pilot wave at the output of the filter, and a digital comparison element which compares that number with a reference value with a view to generating a control signal for the said network. In a particular embodiment of the invention, the multiplex group is transposed towards the low frequencies before being digitally processed.
