MULTICHANNEL RECEIVER Russian patent published in 1997 - IPC

FIELD: reception and processing of signals, extraction of weak signals against noisy background. SUBSTANCE: multichannel receiver has input converters and output converter. Output of each input converter is connected to proper input of output converter. Inputs of input converters and output of output converter are correspondingly inputs and output of receiver. Input converters are manufactured in the form of multiinput discriminators of maximal or minimal instantaneous values of signals. Output converter is made in the form of multiinput discriminator of minimal or maximal momentary values of input signals. EFFECT: enhanced signal-to-noise ratio with simultaneous simplification of receiver. 4 cl
