Abstract A noise blanker which has circuitry that enables the threshold level of noise blanking to track the average background noise level is disclosed. In general, a control- lable gate receives an input signal and selectively passes and blocks the input signal in response to received noise blanking pulses which are generated in response to high peak magnitude noise impulses. A signal related to background and impulse noise is extracted from an input signal. A controllable gain noise amplifier is utilized to amplify the separated background and impulse noise and negative feedback circuitry is utilized to maintain the average peak output of the noise amplifier substantially constant except for occasional large magnitude noise impulses which do not substantially change the average peak magnitude of the background and impulse noise. The output of the controll- able noise amplifier is applied to a threshold switch means which produces blanking pulses in response to the amplified noise signal having a peak exceeding a magnitude which is greater than the substantially constant peak output level of the noise amplifier. This results in a blanker circuit in which the threshold level of blanking pulses closely tracks the average peak value of the background and impulse noise.
