ABSTRACT:
An automatic level control circuit for a multi-level quadrature amplitude-modulated (QAM) demodulator having a QAM detector, which produces baseband in-phase (P) and quadrature (Q) signals in response to an input QAM camer wave, and two analog-digital (A/D) convertors which convert the Q and P signals into two parallel digital signals. Automatic level control of the input level of the baseband signal to the A/D convertor is maintained constant by the combination of a reference signal generator in a feed back loop with each A/D convertor. The A/D convertor produces a decoded digital signal and the reference voltage generator, in response to those signals, provides reference voltage to the A/D convertor that are optimized in response to variations in input signal level.
