Abstract

A device for the correction of signal distortion occurring in a signalling channel. Compensatory amplitude adjustment is made to a sampled signal in accordance with the statistical deviation of the signal from a preselected statistical model. Signal sampling means employs the sampled signal as a write-address for generating a statistical amplitude distribution function. Inverse distribution function means, responsive to addressing by the distribution function, provides an output signal of compensatorily modified amplitude.
