The object of the present invention is to provide an ink jet recording sheet which can give an image having an appearance looking like a picture, especially, an oil painting with maintaining sufficient print density. According to the present invention, there is provided an ink jet recording sheet comprising a support and an ink receiving layer provided on one side of the support, where the support is a fabric and the surface of the ink receiving layer has an arithmetical mean roughness of not more than 30 &#x3bc;m measured in accordance with JIS B0601. The present invention further provides an ink jet recording sheet mentioned above, wherein the ink receiving layer is coated on a pigment layer coated on at least one side of the fabric or on at least one side of the fabric impregnated with a pigment component. The ink receiving layer preferably contains a gas phase method silica.

Recording sheet and method for preparation thereof

A digital demodulator compensates for frequency offset between modulated and unmodulated carrier signals by detecting the frequency offset during a preamble with a known modulation pattern. Samples obtained during the preamble are stored in a memory during clock recovery, and read from the memory after the recovered clock signal has become stable. Phase offset is detected from a histogram of the phase differences between the two carrier signals, calculated modulo a certain phase angle, and compensation for phase offset is applied. The maximum histogram value is found by comparisons made according to a single-elimination tournament plan. In a diversity receiver, the maximum histogram value is used to select the output data.

Digital demodulator, maximum-value selector, and diversity receiver

An instantaneous phase detecting circuit for detecting the phase of a digital phase modulation wave signal which includes first and second logic circuits, first and second phase detecting circuits, and a third logic circuit. The first and second logic circuits receive the modulation wave signal, the first logic circuit receives a first carrier signal, and the second logic circuit receives a second carrier signal, the phase of the second carrier signal being delayed by a fixed period with respect to the phase of the first carrier signal. The first and second logic circuits generate first and second arithmetic outputs which are received by the first and second phase detecting circuits which detect the phases of the first and second arithmetic outputs to generate first and second detection output signals respectively. The third logic circuit receiving the first and second detection output signals and compares a periodic deviation of the first and second detection output signals to detect the phase of the modulation wave signal.
