Wholly digital systems defeat the noise by sending the audio information in digital form at the cost of some combination of power bandwidth and resistance to interference Digital Hybrid systems overcome channel noise in a dramatically new way digitally encoding the audio in the transmitter and decoding it in the receiver yet still send ing the encoded information via an analog FM wireless link This proprietary algorithm is not a digital imple mentation of an analog compandor but a technique that can be accomplished only in the digital domain even though the inputs and outputs are analog Because it uses an analog FM link the Digital Hybrid system enjoys all the benefits of conventional FM wire less systems and it does away with the analog compan dor and its artifacts Bias The Digital Hybrid design results in a signal to noise ratio high enough to preclude the need for conventional pre emphasis HF boost in the transmitter and de emphasis HF roll off in the receiver This eliminates the potential for distortion of signals with abundant high frequency information Low Frequency Roll Off The low frequency roll off can be set for a 3 dB down point at 35 50 70 100 120 and 150 Hz to control sub sonic and very low frequency audio content in the au dio The actual roll off frequency will vary slightly depend ing upon the low frequency response of the microphone Excessive low frequency content can driv
