I'm on a new approach to this. What I have now is two outputs, one in the range Pp=[0;2]V, the other in the range Pn=[-2;0]V. If abs(Pp) > abs(Pn) the pulse is positive, if If abs(Pp) < abs(Pn) the pulse is negative. If abs(Pp)+abs(Pn) < X the signal is too weak to be considered valid.
I haven't decided on the value of X yet, but the plan is to build the validity check by connecting Pn to an opamps negative input, Pp to the positive input, and tune gain so that a diode on the output will give signal only if signal is valid.
The new challenge: How to make a comparator for the absolute values? I'm thinking the output of the comparator could be +2.5V if Pp is the larger, or -2.5V is Pn is the larger.
