Abstract: An arrangement for the demodulation of auxiliary low frequency channels in digital transmission systems comprising means (12) for receiving the transmitted signals, linear amplification means (13) with automatic gain control (AGC) (14) for the received signals, non linear discrimination means (15) for discriminating between logic levels in the amplified digital signals at the main channel bit rate, and subtraction means (16) for subtracting the output of the discrimination means from the amplified signals to obtain the auxiliary low frequency channel signals.
