ABSTRACT:
Arrangement for analog compensation of a DC component in an AC signal having an estimator for producing an estimate corresponding to the DC component, a compensator for producing a present compensating signal according to the estimate, an adder for adding the present compensating signal to the AC signal, and a comparator for continuously comparing the present estimate with the present compensating signal. If the difference between the present estimate and the present compensating signal lies outside of a predefined interval, then the comparator triggers the compensator to produce an updated compensating signal according to the present estimate, and to switch from the present compensating signal to the updated compensating signal, and the adder adds the updated compensating signal to the AC signal. If the difference lies within the predefined interval, then the compensator continues to produce the present compensating signal, and the adder adds the present compensating signal to the AC signal.
