# dtmfReceiver(dtmfPulse)

Converts a DTMF pulse or (pulse train) into the corresponding character(s)

### Syntax

o_dtmfReceiver(dtmfPulse)
  dtmfPulse: waveform - any DTMF-coded signal pulse
OR
  dtmfPulse: scalar record that defines a pulse train. Three fields:
signal: waveform - the dtmf signal
  pulseLen: real64 scalar - length of the pulses in seconds
nullLen: real64 scalar - length of the pulse train nulls in seconds
  return: string - character(s) that correspond to the given pulse.

### Usage

This function takes a general two-tone DTMF pulse train with or without noise and other signals and derives a best estimate of the intended encoded characters. If the input is a single waveform then it is assumed that a single pulse is present and a single character is derived. If the input is a record with the requisite three fields then a pulse train is processed and converted to a multiple character string.

### Location

menu: veeos ==> signal processing ==> modules ==> dtmfReceiver

library: sigLib

### Example

### Notes

This function implements a DTMF receiver using a tuned narrow-band receiver and as such is highly noise resistant.

### Reference

DTMF is a very simple standard consisting of two audio frequencies and developed to enable simple data signaling over telephone lines.

### Dependencies

o_dtmfRcvPulse()

### Supported On

VEE 7.0+, All platforms.
