Abstract
In a method and a circuit arrangement for recovering a digital signal having digital pulses from a recorded signal which is read by a read head of a storage device, the shape of the recorded signal, being a reproduction of the digital signal, is compared with the shape of a normal read signal previously stored as a comparison pattern of voltage values. In the case of agreement, which is given on the presence of a certain correlation, the recorded signal is evaluated as a digital pulse and otherwise on non-agreement as a digital non-pulse.
