Abstract

The process is made to detect a received tone including at least one single predetermined frequency, within a signal encoded using block coding and Linear Prediction Coding techniques providing auto-correlation coefficients R(i) and direct form coefficients a(i). The process is based upon Fourier Transform computations over the successive blocks of a(i)'s, with table look up tone identification, further confirmed upon R(i)'s stationarity detecting.
