System for transmitting sequences of digital samples encoded by variable-length binary words
First Claim
1. A system for transmitting and receiving sequences of digital samples, said system comprising:
- (a) a transmitter device comprising means for encoding as variable length words a plurality of said sequences provided as words of a fixed length at an input thereof, a synchronizing means coupled to said encoding means for forming synchronizing words which define the position of respective ones of said variable length words within the sequences, a multiplexer means coupled to said synchronizing means for combining said synchronizing words with said variable length words and;
(b) a receiver device comprising demultiplexing means for providing at a first output said variable length words received from said transmitting device to a decoding means coupled thereto for recovering said fixed length words, and for providing at a second output said synchronizing words to a processing means coupled thereto for restoring in the event of a transmission error, the position of said digital samples in said sequences, characterized in that said system further comprises combining means for combining an error detecting code with said synchronizing words and said synchronizing means comprises control means for distributing said synchronizing words combined with said error detection code.

Abstract
A system for transmitting sequences of digital samples encoded by variable-length binary words is formed on the one hand by a transmitter device comprising a statistic encoding circuit for encoding in said variable-length words words of a fixed length appearing at its input in the shape of sample sequences, a synchronizing circuit for forming synchronizing words which define the position of the variable-length words in the sequences and a multiplexer circuit for combining, in view of their transmission, the synchronizing words with the variable-length words, and, on the other hand, a receiver device comprising a demultiplexer circuit for applying from one of its two outputs the variable-length words received to a statistic decoding circuit for recovering the fixed-length words and for applying from the other output the synchronizing word to a processing circuit for restituting, in the event of a transmission error, the position of the samples in the sequence.
