Abstract
A unipolar, RZ, constant width pulse telemetry is achieved in the combinatorial set, or any desired subset of pulse sequences thereof. Each input datum W is in one-to-one correspondence with a particular pulse sequence and the correspondence of datum with pulse sequence and vice versa is implemented by any selected ordering of the pulse sequences of the combinatorial set together with a successive comparison of the magnitude of the datum with the cumulative combinatorial capacity of the set.
Claims5
The method of communicating a datum, W, across a communication channel from a data source to a data receiver, by a sequence of time displaced, nonadjacent, constant width pulses within a fixed time interval T.sub.w said time interval having beginning and final ends and being independent of said datum W, comprising the steps,
- (a) ordering a combinatorial set of said sequence of pulses,
- (b) determining from said datum, a particular one of said sequence of time displaced pulses of said combinatorial set,
- (c) generating and transmitting said determined sequence of time displaced pulses across said communication channel,
- (d) recovering said transmitted sequence of time displaced pulses from said communication channel, and
- (e) performing the inverse of the determination of step (b) on the recovered sequence of pulses to obtain a representation of said datum W.
