A PCM signal recording and reproducing apparatus comprises first and second memory circuits, in which PCM signals are read and written using the first memory circuit, while PCM signals stored in the second memory circuit are error-corrected. At the end of writing by the first memory circuit, the first and second memory circuits are interchanged to read the error-corrected PCM signals stored in the second memory circuit. The read-out error-corrected PCM signals are then recorded on another magnetic tape.

This invention relates to an error correction upon reproduction of digital signals. The error correction is performed by decoding code words such as cross-interleaved Reed Solomon codes, in which first code blocks are formed by a plurality of information words which are in the first arrangement state and a plurality of first check words which are produced by codes associated with the plurality of information words with a Hamming distance of d.sub.1, and second code blocks are formed by a plurality of information words and a plurality of first check words which are in the second arrangement state and which consist of the said plurality of information words and the said plurality of first check words which are respectively included in the different first code blocks, and by a plurality of second check words which are produced by codes associated with the plurality of information words and the plurality of first check words with a Hamming distance of d.sub.2. At the first decoding stage, errors are detected and at the same time the flags indicative of the decoding states are added with respect to the second code blocks. At the second decoding stage, in accordance with the contents of the flags and on the basis of a combination of p.sub.2 and q selected from their combinations satisfying 2p.sub.2 +q.ltoreq.d.sub.1 -1, errors are detected and errors of p.sub.2 words are corrected and erasures of q words to which the flags were added are corrected with respect to the first code blocks.
摘要:
A rotary-head PCM data recorder in which PCM signals of m in number, a synchronizing signal, control signals related to the PCM signals, and a parity signal for error detection and correction are formed into data blocks, and data blocks of n in number are recorded on one track of a magnetic tape. Among the control signals, bits of signals common to n data blocks (i.e., information needed once for each track) are formed in distributed data allocated in a group of consecutive blocks or tracks, and multiple block distributive control data are recorded on one track multiple number of times, or multiple track distributive control data are recorded along n block strings a multiple number of times. In reproduction, block or track distributive data are composed to reproduce the control signals. The recorder thus arranged reduces the bit number needed for the control signals and compensates dropout of reproduced data due to scratches on the tape and the like.

摘要:
A method of transmitting a digital signal in the form of successive signal frames containing codes for detecting and correcting errors of the digital signal for reducing degradation in the quality of the reproduced sound due to generation of the code errors in a digitized audio signal transmission system. An analog signal such as an audio signal is sampled and subjected to A/D conversion. The sample word thus obtained is divided into a plurality of symbol elements. Parity words for detecting and correcting code errors are added to every group of a predetermined number of the information symbols through an interleave procedure before being transmitted. The method includes the steps of applying a first frame of symbols, taken one from each input channel, and having a first arrangement state, to a first error-correcting code encoder to generate a series of first parity words; delaying each of the symbols in the first frame and each of the first parity words by a respective different delay time in a unit of the sample word at a delay line to provide a resulting second frame of symbols in a second arrangement state; applying the second frame of symbols to a second error-correcting code encoder to generate a series of second parity words; and transmitting said second frame of symbols together with said second parity words.
