Abstract

In the present invention a received DPSK signal is sampled at times corresponding to a peak signal to noise ratio and the sample of signal is passed to a circulating memory. A phase detector is connected to receive the DPSK signal and the sample of signal circulating in the memory to provide an output signal indicative of the phase relationships between the received DPSK signal and the circulating sample signal. A sampling means samples the output signal from the phase detector at the correct bit time, to provide a signal which is a function of the differential phase between adjacent bits of the received DPSK signal.
