Abstract
A method of encoding data for transmission includes aligning and tagging a start of a data stream; receiving, at a communication interface comprising a scrambler (111C1), a digitized signal comprising formatted digital data; scrambling the formatted digital data into scrambled digital data to reduce spectral bandwidth and enhance balance between amounts of digit values of the digital data and without adding coding bits to the formatted digital data; and outputting the scrambled digital data.
Claims22
A method of encoding data for transmission, the method comprising:
- aligning and tagging a start of a data stream;
- receiving at a communication interface comprising a scrambler, a digitized signal comprising formatted digital data;
- scrambling the formatted digital data into scrambled digital data to reduce spectral bandwidth and enhance balance between amounts of digit values of the digital data and without adding coding bits to the formatted digital data;
- and
- outputting the scrambled digital data.
A digital interface, comprising:
- a receiver that receives a digitized signal comprising formatted digital data, the receiver comprising a receive logic device adapted to detect an alignment code and align with respect to this code;
- a scrambler that scrambles the formatted digital data into scrambled digital data to reduce spectral bandwidth and enhance balance between amounts of digit values of the digital data and without adding coding bits to the formatted digital data;
- and
- an output that outputs the scrambled digital data.
