The invention relates to a device for demodulating an input signal
containing information being conveyed by phase modulation of a carrier
wave. A transmitter generates a signal controlling a phase variation in
the carrier wave, for each symbol having N cycles, N being an integer
strictly greater than 1. The phase variation stretches on the receiver
side over n cycles, n being an integer greater than 1 and less than N.
The device generates a single pulse for each symbol received suited to
generate the leading edge of the pulse corresponding to the symbol
considered after a constant duration from the moment the symbol
considered starts; and generates the trailing edge of the pulse
considered at a moment the phase shift corresponding to the symbol
considered has to be measured. Conversion means generate an output signal
with a voltage varying as a function of the duration of the pulse
produced.
