Abstract:
A method in a modem having a frame having a plurality of slots, comprising:a) obtaining DIL sequence information from another modem; b) generating at least one table of levels from said DIL sequence information; c) deriving a first function and a second function from said at least one table of levels, said first function different from said second function; d) providing a first set of threshold values associated with said first function in addition to a second set of threshold values associated with said second function; and e) determining whether said DIL sequence information was encoded according to A-law encoding or &mgr;-law encoding based upon decision logic, the decision logic including a first set of comparison operations between said first function and said first set of threshold values in addition to a second set of comparison operations between said second function and said second set of threshold values.
