ABSTRACT:
A dual tone multifrequency and dial pulse receiver that receives 8000 digital data words per second, each of the data words including eight PCM bits representing the analog signal transmitted from a subscriber set and also including a line status bit indicating the DC status of the line. The receiver includes a time-shared processor which processes the PCM bits of 4000 words per second to detect tone-pairs and which also processes the line status bit of 4000 words per second to detect valid dial pulse sequences. The time-shared processor stores one of a first plurality of code words in a register when a tone-pair is detected and stores one of a second plurality of code words in the register when a valid dial pulse sequence is detected. Advantageously, the receiver can detect either dual tone multifrequency or dial pulse signaling from a subscriber even though the type of signaling to be used by the subscriber is not known a priori.
