Abstract
A method for digital transmission of messages is indicated, in which each digital transmission symbol in a data stream to be transmitted is represented by one of several different possible signal values. The signal values of the transmission symbols are routed to a predistortion system, which counteracts their distortion in the transmission path, and whose output signal is transmitted through a linked transmission path. The transmitted signal is scanned at the end of the transmission path, it is then processed further and routed to a decoder. The maximum amplitude of the signal in the receiving-end decoder is limited by limiting the number of different possible signal values corresponding to each transmission symbol.
Claims6
A method for the digital transmission of messages along a transmission path, wherein each digital symbol in a data stream to be transmitted corresponds to a transmission symbol from a signal constellation and is represented by one or another of several different signal values, the method using a predistortion system to counteract distortion in the transmission path, the predistortion system providing a transmitted signal that is scanned at the end of the transmission path as a received signal and is then processed further and routed to a decoder, characterized in that the maximum amplitude of the received signal in the decoder on the receiving side is limited by limiting the number of possible signal values representing each transmission symbol to be transmitted, by use of a finite extension of the signal constellation.
