ABSTRACT:
A digital modulation apparatus applies a method for converting data words to runlength-limited code words using plural conversion tables. The data words are converted to code words that significantly suppress the low frequency component of the final nonreturn-to-zero inverted signal.
This digital modulation apparatus includes ROM tables for storing plural conversion tables containing the runlength-limited code words corresponding to the data words; end-runlength memories and evaluators for determining whether the runlength-limit constraints are satisfied in the interconnection between two consecutive code words when the data words to be converted are supplied; and a DSV controller for storing each of the code words that can be selected from two conversion tables to buffer memories when the runlength-limit constraints are satisfied, and selecting the code words wit the greatest effect suppressing the low frequency component in the obtained signal when the code words are NRZI converted.
