Abstract

See full text

A circuit capable of handling all television sound transmission standards, including the 'NICAM' standard. The circuit contains an analog antialiasing low-pass filter which is fed by the analog sound and video signal and followed by an analog-to-digital converter. The output of the latter is freed from the video signal by a filter circuit. The digital sound signal is applied to a phase splitter having a 0.degree. output and a 90.degree. output which are connected to a phase discriminator. An absolute-value output of the phase discriminator provides the amplitude-demodulated sound signal, while a phase-angle output feeds the DQPSK portion of a 'NICAM' decoder and a differentiating stage, which delivers the frequency-modulated sound signal.
