Abstract
A method of transmitting digital signals which are passed via a communication system by means of a retimer between an input and an output, whereby according to the invention the data packet applied to the input is scanned with respect to the individual bits and within the individual bits and preferably at the center and the scanned data level is transmitted immediately to the output.
Claims5
A method of transmitting data signals supplied over a communication system by means of a retimer between an input and an output for said retimer, comprising scanning individual bits of a data packet applied to an input has the individual bits scanned, at the center, to determine respective scanned data levels for said individual bits and transmitting the scanned data levels immediately to the output, each bit being scanned to a middle of the respective bit, the center of a bit of the data word being determined and then, by establishing that the scanning point deviates from the center, the output time point being shifted by a predetermined time interval until the scanning point again lies at the center.
