SUMMARY

The discussion centers on the application of High Density Bipolar (HDB) scrambling, specifically addressing the substitution rules for sequences of zeros following a negative pulse. The user questions the occurrence of a sequence of "000-" instead of the expected "+00+" after two ones, highlighting a deviation from the established rules of HDB scrambling. This inconsistency raises concerns about the interpretation of zero sequences and their relationship to pulse polarity. The community is invited to clarify the rationale behind this substitution method.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of High Density Bipolar (HDB) scrambling techniques
  • Knowledge of digital signal processing principles
  • Familiarity with pulse polarity and its effects on data encoding
  • Basic grasp of binary sequences and their representations
NEXT STEPS
  • Research the rules of High Density Bipolar (HDB) scrambling in detail
  • Explore the implications of pulse polarity on data transmission
  • Study examples of HDB scrambling to identify common patterns
  • Investigate alternative scrambling techniques and their advantages
USEFUL FOR

Electrical engineers, data transmission specialists, and anyone involved in digital communication systems will benefit from this discussion, particularly those focused on encoding techniques and signal integrity.

Hey guys. Good night to everybody. I'm just trying to understand why the substitution in this picture was made like this(High density bipolar scrambling) of zeros:

The rules state that the sequence of 8 zeros that go after a negative pulse and an even number of ones since the last substitution must be: +00+ and what's being done instead at the beginning of the second signal is 000- which corresponds to an odd number of zeros and a negative pulse before the sequence of 8 zeros. This is happening at the beginning of the signal at the bottom of the picture. This also happens in practically all pictures I've seen.
Could anybody tell me why is this done?
Thanks a lot!
I'm sorry if this was the wrong forum to post this.

I mean, there are two ones before the sequence of zeros. What´s going on? Does not having a substitution mean that the number of zeros is odd?
