Abstract This thesis develops different types of circuits which can be implemented to provide a method to detect and correct errors in digital data on a T1 type communication line. The characteristics of the T1 communication line and the signal sent on the line are described. Errors in the transmitted signal can occur on this line and the types and sources of these errors are discussed. The following are described and discussed in detail: 1) The...

Abstract Jitter is the deviation of a signal's transitions from ideal time positions. Excess jitter is undesireable in a communication system, as it can lead to increased bit error rate and degraded signal quality. This paper begins with an overview of the present state-of-the-art with respect to jitter analysis of data waveforms: The main characteristics of jitter are described, and corresonding measurement techniques are discussed. Waveform capture using both real-time and equivalent time...
