Abstract. To transmit fi<strong>de</strong>lity the information, at long distances, was from the beginning, a great<br />
human dream. The information signal, when transmitted from the emitter to the receiver, suffers<br />
attenuation and distortion. Then, it is necessary to use frequently a regenerator to restore the<br />
original amplitu<strong>de</strong> and also to retime the bit original period. The amplitu<strong>de</strong> can be restored with an<br />
amplifier with AGC (Automatic Gain Control) and the bit duration can be retimed with a<br />
synchronizer with AFC (Automatic Frequency Control).<br />
