Abstract

A modem receiver having receiver control, signal detection, and data demodulation implemented with a single general-purpose integrated circuit microcomputer. Novel multirate digital signal processing techniques are included which provide complete real-time recovery of all data and modem signals in a microcomputer integrated circuit having an architecture not optimized for signal processing applications. The resulting techniques extend to more general signal processing applications which may be implemented by other general-purpose microcomputers, programmed signal processors, or specific dedicated hardware logic. The novel modem receiver includes digital FIR filters, performing quadrature signal detection, and post-demodulation data correction with an all-digital second-order carrier recovery loop.
