Le courant des données binaires à l'entrée du codeur est à la cadence nominale de 1/T 90 Mb/s. Il est subdivisé en deux courants a et b chacun à la cadence 1/2T. Ces courants sont codés en différentiel afin d'éliminer les effets de propagation d'erreur, ils sont ensuite modulés en amplitude sur porteuses en quadrature, sommés et passés dans un filtre de codage duobinaire.

We investigate radio-frequency(rf) reflectometry in a tunable carbon nanotube double quantum dot coupled to a resonant circuit. By measuring the in-phase and quadrature components of the reflected rf signal, we are able to determine the complex admittance of the double quantum dot as a function of the energies of the single-electron states. 1, record 3, English, - complex%20admittance

As a result the amplitude does not cross zero, and this reduces the peak to average ratio. This has advantages for power amplifiers because it reduces the peak to average ratio and as a result it is used in the reverse link for CDMA [code division multiple access] transmissions. 1, record 4, English, - offset%20quadrature%20phase%20shift%20keying

A "RAW Signal Data" product contains raw or unprocessed radar video baseband data in complex in-phase and quadrature signal(I and Q) format as they are recorded by the spacecraft. The only processing performed to the downlink X-band "raw signal data" is the frame synchronization, meaning re-assembly of the data into contiguous radar range lines in matrix form, and the CEOS [Committee on Earth Observations Satellite] formatting. Each range line of data is represented by one Signal Data Record in the RAW CEOS product. 2, record 5, English, - %5C%22raw%20signal%20data%5C%22%20product

The RAW product can contain any single beam mode, or for ScanSAR any combination of different beam modes, depending on the operation of the SAR instrument during the data reception or recording period. A RAW product cannot, however, combine data from more than one beam mode, i.e. data from two different beam modes are always packaged as two separate products. A RAW product must be SAR processed before it can be displayed as imagery. RAW products are typically produced on 8 mm (Exabyte) tapes. This is the standard medium for exchanging data between network stations. 2, record 5, English, - %5C%22raw%20signal%20data%5C%22%20product
