  • Patent number: 4088960
    Abstract: A correlation detector for detecting the presence of tones uses an improved circuit for finding the square root of the sum of the squares consisting of a two phase to multiphase converter and a magnitude comparator. The frequency response is extended to DC frequency. An improved multiplier is also described which results in very small DC offsets and provides for cancellation of whatever small DC offset which may be generated. Use of the improvements results in a monolithically integrable correlation detector.
