Abstract: A multifrequency tone receiver is disclosed for detecting simultaneous tone signals in a sampled digital signal. The tone receiver includes a microprogrammed sequence controller, a time-multiplexed digital filter and a signal processing microcomputer. For each sample of the digital signal, the sequence controller is programmed to time multiplex the digital filter for performing three cascaded second order filtering operations (two bandpass filter operations and one low pass filter operation) for each of six tone signals to provide corresponding energy estimates and one additioal filtering operation to provide a total energy estimate. The signal processing microcomputer processes a number of sets of the seven energy estimates and provides an indication when a multifrequency toner pair has been detected. The digital filter, when enabled by a filter start signal from the sequence controller, asynchronously performs a single multiplication-like filtering operation to implement each second-order filter, and provides a filter done signal upon completion of the filtering operation. Full-wave rectifying capability is provided during low pass filtering operations by logically complementing the digital filter input signal. Limit cycles may be suppressed in the digital filter output signal by rounding the output signal and clamping positive and negative overflows to the largest allowable positive and negative signals, respectively. The tone receiver may be advantageously utilized in a PCM communication system for detecting multifrequency tone signalling used for dialing and supervisory control. Moreover, the inventive tone reciver may be adapted to receive many different types of tone signalling simply by changing firmware therewithin.

Abstract: A multifrequency tone receiver (100) for detecting simultaneous tone signals in a sampled digital signal. The tone receiver (100) includes a microprogrammed sequence controller (101 and Fig. 3B), a time-multiplexed digital filter (102 and Fig. 3C) and a signal processing microcomputer (103 and Fig. 3A). For each sample of the digital signal, the sequence controller (101) is programmed to time multiplex the digital filter (102) for performing three cascaded second order filtering operations (two bandpass filter operations and one low pass filter operation as shown in Fig. 2) for each of six tone signals to provide corresponding energy estimates and one additional filtering operation to provide a total energy estimate. The signal processing microcomputer (103) processes (per flowchart in Fig. 7) a number of sets of the seven energy estimates and provides an indication when a multifrequency tone pair has been detected. The digital filter (102), when enabled by a filter start signal from the sequence controller (101), asynchronously performs a signal multiplication-like filtering operation to implement each second-order filter, and provides a filter done signal upon completion of the filtering operation. Full-wave rectifying capability is provided during low pass filtering operations by logically complementing (gate 361 in Fig. 3C) the digital filter input signal. Limit cycles may be suppressed in the digital filter output signal by rounding the output signal and clamping (gates 365-368 in Fig. 3C) positive and negative overflows to the largest allowable positive and negative signals, respectively. The tone receiver (100) may be advantageously utilized in a PCM communication system for detecting multifrequency tone signalling used for dialing and supervisory control. Moreover, the inventive tone receiver (100) may be adapted to receive many different types of tone signalling simply by changing firmware (Tables I and IV) therewithin.
