Abstract

On désembrouille des signaux basse fréquence par modulation à double bande latérale du signal basse fréquence brouillé avec une porteuse de modulation dont la fréquence porteuse est légèrement supérieure au signal basse fréquence le plus élevé présent dans le signal basse fréquence brouillé. On produit ainsi un signal à double bande latérale qui est envoyé dans un filtre passe-bas qui est à son tour modulé par une deuxième fréquence porteuse qui est inférieure au signal de la première porteuse, au moyen d'une valeur égale au spectre décalé du signal brouillé de départ. Le premier filtre passe-bas élimine toute porteuse résiduelle en provenance du premier modulateur qui résulte de l'intermodulation des deux fréquences de modulation qui devraient être audibles à sa sortie du désembrouilleur. Les modulateurs utilisés sont des modulateurs du type à commutateur à faible bruit qui améliorent le rapport signal/bruit dans le signal désembrouillé par rapport aux modulateurs linéaires utilisés jusqu'à aujourd'hui. Le fait d'utiliser des modulateurs du type à commutateur permet de produire un dispositif moins coûteux et plus performant. Un dispositif de brouillage associé utilise des techniques similaires pour assurer une meilleure performance à coût inférieur.
