2.2.3.1 Digital
Front-End
Prior to the main signal processing, the input signal must be adjusted for any DC
offset. The front-end module also monitors the input signal level, which includes
measuring DC and AC input signal levels, detecting and counting overflows, and
detecting alarms based on the far-end signal level. Figure 2-4 summarizes the fea-
tures of the digital front-end module.
