Time domain symbol receiver

Abstract

Methods and apparatus are described for time domain signals. An apparatus includes an electrical circuit decoder coupled to a receiver.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . An apparatus, comprising an electrical circuit decoder coupled to a receiver wherein the decoder unit, upon receiving a standard well known null starting signal at the beginning of each communication, receives a variable pulse width bit stream sequence of the rising and falling edges of precisely timed rising and falling voltage level time domain symbol encoded electrical, light or other photonic pulses from the receiver and directs the signal or signals to an edge detector that generates a precise timing pulse each time the input changes state from high-to-low or low-to-high and applies these alternating timing pulses to its two or more counters via an input line to each counter thereby initializing the counters and gating them to the alternate processing of the counting of the durations of their respective encoded time domain signals to be transferred in the form of coded signals constructed by the counters from their signal input to the interleaving section of the apparatus that then assembles the deconcatenated symbols back into their original form as sum concatenated time domain symbols wherein the measurement of the time that had been captured during the duration between the initiation of the high time and its subsequent end and the separate duration of the initiation of the low time and its subsequent end of the variable pulse widths of the symbols have been recreated without any symbolic meaning being attached to the rise and fall times of the variable bipolar pulses except through their use in the initiation and termination of the signal or the set of signals that are then sent to the mapping circuitry of the apparatus to its constellation of binary tables and converted to an exit symbol for the integer stream exit.
