Abstract
A facsimile communication system including a first processing circuit, connected to receive a facsimile signal from a first facsimile device, for converting the analog voiceband facsimile signal into a digital code signal representing information carried in the analog voiceband signal, and for transmitting the digital code signal; a second processing circuit, connected to receive the transmitted digital code signal from the first processing circuit, for converting the received digital code signal into an analog voiceband facsimile signal; and a second facsimile device, connected to receive the analog voiceband facsimile signal from the second processing circuit. The digital code signal includes a digital code which is repeated in the digital code signal an integral number of times. In another embodiment, the digital code signal contains another binary code which represents the position, within a data field, when information was first detected by the first processing circuit.
