Abstract
An FDDI transmitting apparatus employs a scrambler to scramble input NRZ data which in turn is input to an NRZI-to-NRZ pre-encoder. This is in turn coupled in series with an NRZ-to-NRZI encoder to produce scrambled FDDI data for transmission whose spectral content is predistorted to minimize spectral content peaks above about 30 MHz. A complementary receiving apparatus employs an NRZI-to-NRZ decoder which, according to the invention, is coupled to an NRZ-to-NRZI postdecoder. This data is thence coupled to a descrambler according to the invention to recover the original data.
