ABSTRACT:
A narrow band signal is converted into digital form using an analogue to digital converter of relatively small capacity. The input signal is compared with a prediction of it based on previous cycles of the incoming waveform. This produces an error signal which is compared with a prediction of the error signal to produce an "error of the error" signal. A relatively small A/D converter converts this into 8 bit digital form and this is applied to a feedback loop consisting of an adder and delay to give a sixteen bit prediction of the error signal which is applied via D/A converter to the subtractor. The sixteen bit prediction also provides an input to a further adder forming part of a feedback loop to give an eighteen bit prediction of the input signal. The latter is applied via a D/A converter to a subtractor and is used as the system output.
