Abstract
A digital implementation for a carrier detector. The detector determines if the carrier frequency at any instant is within a predetermined frequency band. The detector further determines if the detected frequency remains within the predetermined frequency band for a predetermined period of time. The detector also provides an indication that there has not been any loss of carrier for another predetermined period of time.
