Method and device for receiving a signal the phase or frequency of which is modulated by a sequence of two-state symbols
First Claim
1. A method for receiving, by a receiver device of a wireless communication system, of a useful signal transmitted by a transmitter device, the method comprising steps of:
- detecting a time-domain envelope of the useful signal, the useful signal corresponding to a signal that is phase-modulated or frequency-modulated by a sequence of two-state symbols corresponding to a binary data sequence;
comparing the detected time-domain envelope with a predetermined threshold value;
detecting transitions between consecutive symbols of the useful signal, a transition between two consecutive symbols, respective states of which are different, being detected when the detected time-domain envelope is less than the predetermined threshold value, and a transition between two consecutive symbols, the respective states of which are identical, being detected when the detected time-domain envelope is greater than the predetermined threshold value; and
extracting the binary data sequence from the useful signal as a function of detected transitions between different states and as a function of detected transitions between identical states.

Abstract
A method allowing a receiver device of a wireless communication system to receive a useful signal emitted by an emitter device. The useful signal corresponding to a signal, the phase or frequency of which is modulated by a sequence of two-state symbols corresponding to a sequence of binary data. A temporal envelope of the useful signal is detected and compared to a preset threshold value. Transitions between consecutive useful-signal symbols are detected, on the basis of the result of the comparison. A sequence of binary data is extracted from the useful signal depending on the detected transitions.
