Abstract

A digital tone detector receives a modulated input signal selectively containing at least one tone signal component. Two demodulator circuits each demodulate the input signal wherein one demodulator circuit operates at the predetermined frequency of the tone and the other demodulator circuit operates at the second harmonic. When the input tone has a low spectral harmonic power, a ratio of the demodulated outputs of the two demodulators reliably detects the presence of the tone in the input signal.
