Abstract

The invention eliminates an FM interference from a digital signal when the interference occurs because the FM and digital signals are transmitted over adjacent routes and sharing a common frequency band. An error detector finds a difference between a detected baseband digital signal and an assumed transmission code, which is taken from the baseband signal. The detector produces a first error signal responsive thereto. A phase synchronizing circuit produces an output signal synchronized with the first error signal. A coefficient circuit multiplies the output of the synchronizing circuit by a complex coefficient which is then subtracted from the baseband signal. A second error detector produces a second error signal responsive to the difference between the output of the subtractor and a discriminated transmission code. Responsive thereto to a control circuit varies the complex coefficient to produce an output which is the original baseband signal, free of the FM interference.
