The transmission system according to the invention comprises a transmitter (10) and a receiver (12). The transmitter (10) can transmit a signal (11) to the receiver (12). The receiver (12) comprises an interference absorption circuit (20) for detecting interference components included in the signal (11) and for substantially removing, during a time interval (Δt), the interference components from the signal (11). The interference absorption circuit (20) is arranged for adapting the time interval (Δt) in dependence on the duration of the individual interference components. Preferably, the time interval (Δt) is substantially equal to the duration of the individual interference components. In this way, despite the fact that the interference components have a variable duration, the interference components can be accurately removed from the desired signal (11).
A transmission system for transmitting a signal (11) from a transmitter (10) to a receiver (12), the receiver (12) comprising an interference absorption circuit (20) for detecting interference components included in the signal (11) and for substantially removing, during a time interval (Δt), the interference components from the signal (11), characterized in that the interference absorption circuit (20) is arranged for adapting the time interval (Δt) in dependence on the duration of the individual interference components.
A transmission system according to any one of the preceding claims, characterized in that the interference absorption circuit (20) further comprises delay means (24) for delaying the signal (11), the interference removal means (28) being coupled to the circuit input (22) via the delay means (24), the delay introduced by the delay means (24) being substantially equal to the delay introduced by the interference detection means (26).
A receiver (12) for receiving a signal (11) from a transmitter (10), the receiver (12) comprising an interference absorption circuit (20) for detecting interference components included in the signal (11) and for substantially removing, during a time interval (Δt), the interference components from the signal (11), characterized in that the interference absorption circuit (20) is arranged for adapting the time interval (Δt) in dependence on the duration of the individual interference components.
