Abstract
A digital FSK demodulator includes a quadrature phase detector for detecting space and mark tones used in FSK signals. Due to its inherent characteristics, a telephone loop in which the demodulator is used produces unequal amplitudes in detected mark and space tones. The inequality or offset must be cancelled so that a proper timing signal can be recovered from the FSK signal. The demodulator includes a digital compensation circuit for off-hook and on-hook offset cancellation.
