Abstract:
An adaptive switched filter arrangement formed from two switched filters to each of which is applied the same input signal. The first switched filter is switched at an independent predetermined frequency. The second switched filter, however, is tuned by the output frequency extracted by the first filter. This minimizes phase tracking time and cancels systematic phase error.
Abstract:
A phase synchronizing device for the carrier of a single sideband transmission system. Two pilot frequencies are transmitted with the synchronization signal and are decoded at the receiver to provide a signal indicating the correct phase of the demodulating carrier signal. The transmitted carrier signal controls the frequency of an oscillator and the initial phase of the regenerated carrier signal is set a the start of reception by the decoded pilot signals.
