  • Abstract
    This paper presents an improved method for retrieving frame synchronization from a, possibly noisy, pulse-position modulated (PPM) signal. It does not require synchronization patterns to be inserted in the data stream, but uses all information already present in the signal. Theory is accompanied by simulations, a circuit design and implementation, and measurement results.
