ABSTRACT:
An adaptive regeneration system is provided for reconstructing a signal received in the form of a multi-level composite data and clock signal which has been degraded with respect to amplitude and timing. The system includes a local clock circuit for outputting a plurality of phase-delayed local clock signals, and a clock recovery circuit for receiving the received multi-level signal and the plurality of phase-delayed clock signals and extracting a phase-delayed local clock signal which most accurately represents the phase shift between the received multi-level signal and the local clock signal. A threshold level selection circuit receives the extracted phase-delayed local clock signal and the received multi-level signal and outputs in real time a data amplitude reading and a plurality of multi-level threshold levels corresponding to the amplitude levels of the received multi-level signal. A data regenerator receives the data amplitude reading, the plurality of multi-level threshold levels and the extracted phase-delayed signal and reconstructs and outputs the received multi-level signal essentially in its originally transmitted form.
