Adaptive Threshold A/D Conversion Techniques for Interference Rejection in DSPN Receiver Applications

The results of laboratory experiments on adaptive threshold A/D conversion are presented in the light of previous theoretical work. Hardware design considerations are addressed and related to the operation of a generic DSPN receiver. Finally data are presented which show the dependance of adaptive A/D conversion gain on parameter settings. The data show that the technique is transparent to pulsed jamming.
