COQUELET-80

COQUELET-80 is a synchronous MFSK system with error correction (FEC). Various references note two dif-
ferent systems: COQUELET-80S and COQUELET-82S. COQUELET-82S can be used in both side bands and
uses extended handshaking and synchronizing sequences (extended protocol).

Additional Info

ITA-2

COQUELET-80 is used with the ATU-80 (Arabic) or the ITA-2 (Latin) alphabet. As for COQUELET-8 a char-
acter is coded with two tone assignments from group 1 and group 2.

Error correction is done by transmitting every character twice with a specified time offset. The second
transmitted character is mathematically reformatted (MOD 8). The leading (DX) and trailing characters
(RX) always have the same ODD or EVEN parity.

At the beginning of a message the RX character positions are filled with IDLE sequences. This mode does
error recognition, but no error correction.
