DCS Code Inversion
The DCS system was first introduced in the commercial LMR (Land Mobile Ra-
dio) service, where it is now in widespread use.
DCS uses a codeword consisting of a 23-bit frame, transmitted (subaudible) at a
data rate of 134.4 bps (bit/sec). Occasionally, signal inversion can result in the
complement of a code being sent or received. This prevents the receiver squelch
from opening with DCS enabled, as the decoded bit sequence would not match
that selected for operation.
Typical situations that might cause inversion to occur are:
m Connection of an external receiver preamplifier.
m Operating through a repeater.
m Connection of an external linear amplifier.
Note that code inversion does not mean that any of the above listed equipment is
defective! In certain amplifier configurations, the output signal (phase) is inverted
from the input. Small signal or power amplifiers having an odd number (1, 3, 5,
etc.) of amplification stages may result in inversion of a transmitted or received
DCS code.
