Patent ID: 7145973

Claim:
A method for the reception of a signal comprising one or more messages having a structure formed by at least one synchronization block (part I), followed by a header (part II) and a data block to be transmitted (part Ill), the method making use of a transmission clock frequency and a reception clock frequency characterized in that the method comprises the following steps: Synchronization 1) on the detection or reception of an edge in the received signal, a counting cycle Nc is activated, 2) when the value of Nc is equal to a number M of beeps of a generation clock Hg, a leading edge of the reception clock signal is emitted and a new counting cycle Nc is activated, 3) when this new value of Nc (obtained at the step 2) is equal to a number M of beeps of a generation clock Hg, a clock Hr is made to pass to zero, and simultaneously 3.1) in the event of reception of an edge in the received signal, a counter Nc starts counting M strokes before sending a new clock signal edge, 3.2) in the event of non-reception in the received signal, the counter Nc start counting M+1 strokes before sending a new clock signal edge offset by a value of 1/(M+1)4) the steps 1) and 2) are executed so long as the header is not detected, Recognition of the header 5) upon the detection of a header, a Header Found signal is sent, the steps 1), 2), 3) and 3.1) are executed and the Header Found signal is transmitted at a processing step.
