Remote control signal reproducing circuit
First Claim
1. A signal reproducing circuit comprising:
- an input terminal for receiving a modulated transmission signal subjected to a pulse modulation;
at least one of first, second and third noise rejection means for eliminating noise from the modulated transmission signal received by said input terminal; and
an output terminal to which a reproduced output signal reproduced from the modulated transmission signal removed of noise by said noise rejection means is delivered,said first noise rejection means including;
first time setting means connected between said input terminal and said output terminal, for setting a first predetermined time interval starting from a time at which an initial pulse of said modulated transmission signal is received by said input terminal, andfirst pulse counting means coupled to said first time setting means, for counting the number of the pulses received by said input terminal during said first predetermined time interval and allowing the reproduced output signal to be delivered to said output terminal when the number of the counted pulses exceeds a first predetermined number,said second noise rejection means including;
second time setting means connected between said input terminal and said output terminal, for setting a second predetermined time interval following lapse of said first predetermined time interval, andsecond pulse counting means coupled to said second time setting means, for counting the number of the pulses received by said input terminal during said second predetermined time interval and preventing delivery of the reproduced output signal to said output terminal when the number of the counted pulses is below a second predetermined number,said third noise rejection means including;
third time setting means connected between said input terminal and said output terminal, for setting a third predetermined time interval following lapse of said second predetermined time interval andthird pulse counting means coupled to said third time setting means, for counting the number of the pulses received by said input terminal during said third predetermined time interval and preventing delivery of the reproduced output signal to said output terminal when the number of the counted pulses exceeds a third predetermined number.

Abstract
A remote control signal reproducing circuit for use in a remotely-controlled receiver which receives a modulated transmission signal subjected to a pulse modulation, reproduces an original remote control signal form the received modulated transmission signal, and judges the reproduced remote control signal for effecting predetermined control operations based on pulse counts obtained during three predetermined successive time intervals.
A remote control signal is delivered if the pulse count obtained in the first time interval exceeds a first level. Judgement of the remote control signal is stopped when the number of pulses counted during the second and third time intervals is below or above predetermined numbers respectively. The circuit functions to eliminate noise pulse.
