Abstract

See full text

In a receiver for receiving a carrier modulated with data, there is provided a system for locating and tracking said carrier. The carrier is located by sweeping a frequency range containing said carrier. False lockup are inherent when a wide frequency sweep demodulator attempts to lock onto a carrier, and the system recognizes such lockups by monitoring data from a Viterbi error correction circuit. On false lockup, the system breaks the lockup and continues the sweep until the true data carrier is located and tracked.
