Abstract
The invention relates to a method for the sampling of biphase coded digital signals by reception means which have at least one signal input having switchable signal edge sensitivity or at least two signal inputs having different signal edge sensitivity for the reception of such signals. The signals to be received are sampled precisely once per data bit, namely during the transmission of the first half-bit. The signal edges (F1-F5) of each bit are utilized for synchronizing the signal input with the control signal and for detecting transmission errors. Each signal sampling (S1-S5) is followed by a time window (&Dgr;t) within which the reception of the signal edge of the present bit is expected and evaluated as permissible. The signal edge sensitivity of the at least one signal input is set as a function of the sampled logic level of the first half-bit of the respectively transmitted bit of the signal.
