Abstract
A method for receiving signals includes detecting information signal pulses on a first signal transmission channel, generating an output signal dependent on the information signal pulses on the first signal transmission channel, and detecting interference signal pulses on a second signal transmission channel. The second signal transmission channel is open-ended or terminated by a passive component, and interference signal pulses on the first signal transmission channel that occur within a given time window before or after an interference signal pulse on the second signal transmission channel has been detected are ignored and not used for generating the output signal.
Claims23
A signal transmission arrangement comprising:
- a receiver circuit configured to be coupled to output terminals of a first signal transmission channel, and configured to be coupled to output terminals of a second signal transmission channel, wherein the first signal transmission channel is configured to be coupled to a transmitter and the second signal transmission channel is configured to be open-ended or terminated by a passive component at an input terminal to the second signal transmission channel, wherein
- the receiver circuit is configured to detect information signal pulses and interference signal pulses on the first signal transmission channel and to provide a receiver output signal based only on the information signal pulses from the first signal transmission channel,
- the receiver circuit is configured to detect interference signal pulses on the second signal transmission channel and also to ignore corresponding detected interference signal pulses on the first signal transmission channel occurring within a given time window before or after an interference signal pulse on the second signal transmission signal has been detected.
A method for receiving signals, the method comprising:
- detecting information signal pulses and interference signal pulses on a first signal transmission channel;
- generating an output signal dependent only on the information signal pulses on the first signal transmission channel;
- detecting interference signal pulses on a second signal transmission channel, the second signal transmission channel being open-ended or terminated by a passive component;
- and
- ignoring the detected interference signal pulses on the first signal transmission channel that occur within a given time window before or after an interference signal pulse on the second signal transmission channel has been detected, wherein the ignored interference signal pulses are not used for generating the output signal.
