A communication circuit arrangement for receiving digital intelligence signals as, for example, in a digital switching center of a PCM-time-division multiplex communication network wherein signals are transmitted on circuits connected to digital subscriber stations and the signals are in the form of intelligence signal blocks having at least one intelligence signal word and including a synchronizing word ahead of the intelligence signal word. So as to compensate for the fluctuating phase relationship occurring in the received signals, the first bit of the intelligent block is determined using a signal evaluation device and a clock pulse signal having a phase which is selected using a clock pulse selection circuit and wherein a synchronous counter is set to zero. The counter generates release signals for a plurality of registers for the individual portions of the intelligence block and a comparator test for the presence of a proper synchronizing word. Depending on the results of this comparison, the adjusting procedures are repeated upon the occurrence of the next block or alternatively the system continues to function with the incoming data. The determination of the first bit of an intelligence signal block allows the selection of a bit clock pulse sequence in proper phase and allows the setting of the synchronous counter which controls the acceptance of intelligence into the various registers.
A circuit arrangement for the reception of digital intelligence signals in a digital switching center of a time-division communication network, which signals are transmitted on extension circuits from digital subscriber stations and are in the form of intelligence signal blocks comprising at least one intelligence signal word, and if necessary a signalling word, and a synchronizing word comprising a signal evaluation device (2) which responds to digital signals distinguishable from the quiescent condition and is insensitive to such digital signals subsequent thereto for at least for the duration of an intelligence signal block (Sy, Si, NW) and a maximum time of until the beginning of a new intelligence signal block;
A circuit for receiving block digital signals having the form of a synchronizing word, a signalling word and a message word and wherein said block has a known time length comprising, a first gate receiving said block digital signals and a signal having a duration at least as long as the time length of said block digital signals, three registers receiving the output of said first gate to store a synchronizing word, a signalling word and an intelligence word, respectively, a comparator circuit connected to the one of said three registers in which said synchronizing word is stored, a signal evaluation device receiving the output of said first gate, a second gate receiving inputs from said comparator and said signal evaluation device, a clock pulse selection circuit receiving inputs of the output of said second gate and a switching clock pulse train, a synchronizing counter receiving an input from said clock pulse selection circuit and an input from said second gate, a sequence control receiving an input from said counter and supplying separate inputs to each of said three registers, a third gate connected to a second one of said three registers and receiving an input from said comparator, and a fourth gate connected to a third one of said three registers and receiving an input from said comparator.
