GTS/DEC/006 Smart Source Selector and PCM Decom (20 Mbps) - 3 ch.
The GTS/DEC/006 reconstructs a serial PCM data stream from a source that has been corrupted by noise, phase jitter, amplitude modulation, or baseline variations. The all-digital design utilizes three independent, programmable matched filters and Phase-Locked Loops (PLL) to track deviations in the bit rate of the received signals.
The output from the bit synchronizers is fed into the Smart Source Selector thereby producing a hard decision (1 or 0) based on the signal quality of the received bits. If the soft values are shifted in time, data is re-aligned prior to combining the soft values.
The recovered data is then decommutated into frames. Each minor frame can be tagged with time from an IRIG-B source to an accuracy of 1μs.
