    摘要: A system for handling pulse encoded signals includes several parallel signal paths to carry pulses on which a signal has been encoded. The encoding is based on a predetermined amplitude value, or weight, for each pulse, and each signal path receives all pulses having the same weighting factor. A switching system is provided to switch the signals received on the various paths to different paths in a determinable order at a repetition rate commensurate with the pulse encoding repetition rate. The signals are then transmitted along the signal paths and are then switched back to the original order for pulse decoding. If pulse bits are lost in the second path, an interpolation may be made to provide a reasonable restoration of the signal to minimize the dropout effect. The switching of signals back to the original order virtually eliminates the possibility of having two successive dropouts of the same pulse weight in the signals to be decoded, and thus eliminates the possibility of having no standard of interpolation in the reconstructed signal.

    摘要: In dynamic modulation (D.M.) of non-return-to-zero pulse signals, the only condition under which the D.M. signal would remain in the same state, either 1 or 0, for two consecutive pulse intervals is when the NRZ signal includes the sequence 101. Two sampling signals at the proper clock repetition rate are generated from the D.M. signal by the decoder and are successively used to sample the D.M. signal and to sample the signal resulting from the first sampling. Information of the state of the D.M. signal at the time of the first sampling is retained to be compared with the state of the D.M. signal at a later time, and the state of one of the compared signals is separately compared with the state of a signal between the first-compared signals. If the wrong clock pulses midway between the correct clock pulses are used in making the comparisons, a correction signal will be generated in the last half of the second consecutive pulse interval in which the D.M. signal remains in the same state. This correction signal is used to adjust the clock pulse selector to select the correct pulses.

    摘要: An amplitude adjustment circuit transmits an analog signal to an analog-to-digital converter. If the resulting digital signal reaches the maximum permissible digital value, a monostable control circuit is triggered to cause the amplitude adjustment circuit to reduce the level of the analog signal a certain amount. If the digital signal again reaches the maximum permissible digital value before the control circuit returns to its stable condition a second monostable circuit is triggered (and the first one is retriggered) to cause the amplitude adjustment circuit to reduce the level of the analog signal another amount. The unstable interval for the second monostable circuit is shorter than for the first, and, in the absence of further triggering, both such circuits return to their stable states in succession. The digital signals are used to reconstruct the analog signal in apparatus similar to the encoding apparatus and including amplitude adjustment apparatus controlled by the amplitude compression signals.

    摘要: A still video camera includes a solid-state image pickup device including a photosensor section, a vertical transfer section for vertically transferring charge from the photosensor section, and a horizontal transfer section for outputting the charge from the vertical transfer section to the outside. The solid-state image pickup device is arranged to change an exposure time. Exposure is started at an end of transfer of the charge from the photosensor section to the vertical transfer section. Emission of an electronic flash is started on the basis of a predetermined shutter speed when a predetermined period of time has elapsed. The charge of the photosensor section in the solid-state image pickpup device is transferred to the vertical transfer section when an amount of light reflected by an object to be photographed reaches a predetermined value, thereby completing the exposure.
