Abstract
This automatic equalizer comprises an automatic gain control circuit (2, 4) tending to keep the peak amplitude of the equalized signal constant, together with a variable equalization network (1) provided with a control input enabling the slope of its gain transfer characteristic to be modified without altering the value of its gain at the half Baud frequency, and a servo-control system for controlling the shaping of the frequency spectrum by controlling said variable equalization network, said servo-control system including a circuit (6) for detecting the mean phase error of zero crossings in the skirts of pulses appearing in the received and equalized digital transmission signal compared with the middles of Baud intervals.
