Illustratively, the adaptive decision implementation procedure is illustrated with reference to fig. 2 and 3, and the implementation scenario has two kinds of: firstly, different noise amplitudes are shown in fig. 2; and secondly, long distance transmission, as shown in fig. 3.
In the first case: to approach V u For example, when the noise amplitude is smaller than the noise margin value and the noise amplitude is positive, as shown in fig. 2 (1), the signal amplitude is still smaller than the pre-decision level after the effective signal level is superimposed with the noise, the input signal can be correctly decided, i.e. the decision value is V u 3; if the noise amplitude is greater than the noise margin value and the noise amplitude is positive, as shown in (2) of fig. 2, the signal amplitude is greater than the pre-decision level after the effective signal level is superimposed with the noise, and when the decision level is not changed, the input signal is erroneously decided, i.e., the decision value is V u The decision level is adjusted by DeltaV based on the pre-decision level by the difference DeltaV between the noise tolerance value and the noise amplitude and the sign of the difference DeltaV, so that the input signal can be correctly decided, namely the decision value is V u /3。
To approach V u When the noise amplitude is greater than the noise margin value and the noise amplitude is negative, as shown in fig. 2 (3), the signal amplitude after the superposition of the effective signal level and the noise is less than the pre-decision level, and the decision level is adjusted by Δv down on the basis of the pre-decision level by the difference Δv between the noise margin value and the noise amplitude and the Δv sign of the difference, the input signalCan correctly judge, i.e. the judgment value is V u 。
In the second case: long distance transmission will cause the effective signal amplitude to drop, resulting in a drop in signal noise margin, as shown in fig. 3, with the dashed line (1) to solid line (2) changing.
To approach V u When the effective signal amplitude is reduced to a certain extent and the noise amplitude is negative, as shown in fig. 3, the signal amplitude is smaller than the pre-decision level after the effective signal level is superimposed with the noise, and the decision level is adjusted by Δv down to the pre-decision level by the difference Δv between the noise margin value and the noise amplitude and the sign of the difference Δv, the input signal can be correctly decided, i.e., the decision value is V u 。
In summary, the present application not only avoids the influence of the voltage ripple in the conventional manner and the error decision problem caused by the fixed decision level, but also can track the signal amplitude or the noise amplitude variation in real time to realize the automatic adjustment of the decision level, so as to improve the accuracy of signal transmission.
