The interpolative A-D converter for telecommunications subscriber line incorporated with digital filtering has an integrator for the difference between an input analog signal and a quantised signal. A first comparator samples the intergrating signal at a first sampling frequency. A second comparator receives the input signal and the quantised signal and samples the results of the comparision at the first frequency to develop second signals of one data state when the input signal is greater than the quantised signal and does the results of another data state when the input signal is less than the quantised signal. |

Devices and methods for digital to analogue conversion (DAC) are provided, in which the analogue outputs of an even number of digital to analogue converters are combined. The individual converters operate on the same data but there is a relative time delay between the input digital signal received by one or more of the converters and the input digital signal received by other of the converters, wherein the delay is a fraction of the data sample period. Moreover, the data signal fed to half of the converters has an inverse relationship with the data signal fed to the other half of the converters and their analogue outputs are subtracted. Dither and filtering techniques may also be employed. |

A method for encoding analog signals for storage or transmission includes the steps of sampling momentary values of the analog signals and converting the sampled values into PCM code words and forming PCM differential code words from two successive PCM words, each of the differential PCM words being of a prescribed length. The length of the generated differential PCM words are continuously compared to a reference code word and upon the length of a differential code word exceeding a specified length the word is either abbreviated by a companded differential PCM word by eliminating some of the least significant code elements, or by division of the excess-length word into two successive code words respectively comprising the least significant and most significant bits of the excess-length word, the differential PCM words additionally being replaced by PCM words when the associated signal content does not exceed the length prescribed by the reference code word. |

A method for encoding analog signals for storage or transmission purposes, particularly for the digital recording of audio signals in studio devices, samples periodic values of the analog signals and converts the sampled values into pulse-code modulation code words. Successive pulse-code modulation code words are transformed by means of subtraction into pulse-code modulation difference code words and, together with additional auxiliary code elements, form a reference code word having a selected constant length. A reduction of the digital signal flow is achieved as a result of the reference code word, including the auxiliary code elements, being selected shorter than the maximum possible length of a pulse-code modulation difference code word. The generated pulse-code modulation difference code words are continuously monitored as to length, and upon the identification of a difference code word having an excess length, that is, greater than the reference code word, either the excess-length difference code word is abbreviated or is replaced by a pulse-code modulation code word of suitable length. |

A differential pulse code modulation system, in which an input signal is at first approximated to a stepwise waveform having level changes at a constant number n of sampling points selected in the order of level magnitude from a predetermined number N of samples in the input signal. The remainder of the above approximating operation is secondary followed-up by delta modulation, which uses a variable step level controlled in accordance with the variation feature of the remainder. The differential pulse code modulation output is provided by the above two approximating operations. |

A pulse code telecommunications system in which samples of an analogue signal to be transmitted are each represented by a binary word. In each binary word, one signal bit represents the polarity of the sample with respect to a reference level and one or more further signal bits represent the magnitude of the sample with respect to a second, variable, reference level which is derived from the coded representation of the magnitudes of preceding samples. The system includes a binary signal multiplexer and a transmitter. A receiver for use with the system includes a binary signal demultiplexer, circuits for correctly allocating the polarity and magnitude bit signals to polarity and magnitude signal channels, and decoder circuits for reconstituting the analogue signal from the binary word signal.
