SIGNALING SYSTEM.
Application filed January 31, 1919, Serial No. 274.,288. Renewed August 14, 1923.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, WILLIAM C. WHITE, a citizen of the United States, residin at Schenectady, county of Schenectady, tate of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Signalin Systems, of which the following-is a speci cation.
This application is a continuation in art of my prior application, Serial No. 46, 69, filed August 23, 1915.
My .present invention relates to a 'signaL ing system, and more especially to means for transmittin wireless signals.
One of the o jects of my invention is to provide means for producing continuous electrical waves and means for varying the amplitude of the waves thereby produced. A more articular object of my invention is .to provi e means for varying the amplitude of or modulating the continuous waves in accordance with variations in sound waves. In carrying my invention into efi'ect I preferably em loy an electron discharge device for producing continuous electrical waves in an antenna. If such a device is supplied with a direct current source of constant potential and suitable circuit connections made thereto it maybe made to produce continuous electrical waves of prac- If, however, the potential supplied thereto isvariable, the amplitudeof thewaves pro-' duced Will vary in accordance with the potential variations in the source of supply. Hence if the potential of the supply source tions in sound waves the amplitude of the waves produced may be caused to vary accordingly. L v In my prior application, Serial No. 16,769, filed August 23, 1915, I .have claimed broadly the method of modulation which consists in varying the potential supplied tically constant amplitude in the antenna.
is caused to vary in accordance. with va'rialieve to be novel are set forth with particularity in the appended claims. The invention itself, however, both as to its organization and method of operation, together with further objects and advantages thereof, will best be understood by reference to the following description taken in connection with the accompanying drawings in which Fig. 1 illustrates diagrammatically one Way in which my invention may be carried into effeet, and Fig. 2 shows a modification thereof.
As indicated in Fig. 1 of the drawings, the means for producing continuous electrical waves in the antenna- 1 comprises an electron discharge device 2 consisting preferably of a highly evacuated envelope having therein a cathode 3 of filamentary form, an anode 4, and a, conducting body 5, which is preferably in the form of a grid interposed between the cathode and anode. Current for the operation of the device is supplied to the clrcuit between the cathode and anode by means of the secondary 6 of the transformer 7. Theeircuitbetween cathode and anode also contains an inductance 8 which is inductively related to the inductance 9 in theantenna. The circuit which includes the cathode, 3 and the grid 5 contains an inductance 10 which is inductively related to the inductance 11 in the antenna. The coupling between 8 and 9 is preferably close, while that between 10 and-11 may in some cases be made very loose. The battery 12 may be employed for adjusting the normal potential of thegrid 5 to a value which is most suitable for the efficient operation of the device. The circuit which comprises the secondary 6, the inductance 8, the anode 1,
and the cathode 3, for convenience or description, I designate the plate circuit. The
circuit which comprises the gird 5, induc-- supplied to the plate circuit of the device 2 by means of the secondary 6 of .the transformer 7, the device 2 will produce continuous electrical waves in the/antenna. When the direction of the current issuch thatthe anode 4 is positive, current flows in the plate ircuit and a potential is induced in e011 9 and in the antenna. This produces a corresponding induced potential in coil 10 and varies the potential of the controlling grid 5. This change in potential in turn pro duces a variation in the plate circuit. When the potential induced in the grid circuit causes the grid to become more negative the current flowing in the plate circuit is decreased while'an induced potential which makes the grid more positive increases the current flow in the plate circuit. These variations in the current in the plate circuit produce an alternating current in the antenna, the frequency of which will be the same as the frequency to which the antenna is tuned. The amplitude of the high frequency-waves thus produced in the antenna. will, among other things, depend upon the potential produced in the secondary 6 of the transformer 7 and the amplitude of the oscillations will vary in accordance with variations in this potential. In order to vary the potential in the plate circuit of the device 2 in accordance with variations in sound waves, the current produced in the local circuit of a telephone transmitter 14 is impressed through a transformer 15 upon the grid circuit of an electron discharge device 16, the construction of which is similar to that of the device 2. The plate circuit of the device 16 is supplied with current from a direct current source 17 and .the current flowing in the plate circuit of the device 16 will be a pulsating current which varies in accordance with the variations in the current in the local circuit of the telephone transmitter 14. 'spulsating current flows through the primary 18 of trans, former 7 and produces a low frequency alternating modulating current in the secondary 6 of the transformer -7. This alternating current will of course vary in accordance,- with the variations in the telephone current. As a result the high frequency current produced by device 2 will vary in amplitude in accordance with variations in the amplitude of the telephone current. When the direction .of the potential in the plate circuit of device 2 is suchthat the anode 4 becomes negative no current will flow in the plate circuit of the device, 2, and hence no high frequency oscillations will be produced. As a result waves willxbe produced only during every other half cycle of the low frequency signaling current produced in the secondary 6 of the transformer 7. It is possible to transmit speechby means of waves of this nature though the articulation may not be as perfect as it would be in fcase both half waves of the low frequency.
current were employed for producing high.
frequency current.
By the arrangement shown in Fig. 2 the disadvantage pointed out above may be avoided. Inthis case, as indicated, two
the high frequency waves produced in the antenna will fall to zero when the amplitude of the si aling wave becomes zero. The wave pro uced by the system which I have described is in effect a continuous wave which is modulated bythe signaling current.
,of the two devices by means of the trans- It may properly be said of such a wave that it is damped by the modulating wave only in contradistinction to a modulated wave produced by the spark system or other system which is not adapted to produce undamped waves. r
- The system which I have described also is of particular advantage for use in carrying on duplex signaling because of the fact that high frequency waves are supplied to the antenna only while the transmitter 14 is active. At other times the antenna is incondition for receiving signals without disconnecting the transmitting apparatus.
If desired the coilll may be omitted and the coils 10, 21 and 22 be inductively related to coil 9. In most cases, however, I find. that the arrangement shown is preferable as by connecting the circuits in this way the amplitude of the oscillations produced is greater than if coil 10 were coupled to coil 9. This may be due to the'fact that the phase relation of cufrentsin the grid and plate circuits with this arrangement is somewhat different than when coils 10, 21 and '22 are directly coupled to coil 9 and that this difference causes an increase in the amplitude of the oscillations produced.
In the operation of thesystem which I have described when the potential induced in the plate circuit by reason of the action of the sound waves in the telephone transmitter is such as to cause an increase in the current in the plate circuit, there will be a corresponding increase in the current in the antenna. As a result the current induced in the grid circuit will increase correspondingly. The potential upon the grid will be increased and a further increase in the amplitude of the late current will be effected thereby. With the proper ad-,
justment this accumulative effect may be useful. to a large extent in increasing the variations in the. amplitude of the waves producedin the antenna.' Under some conditions, however, this'efi'ect may become so great as to impair the articulation of the speech or other sounds transmitted.
While I have shown and described two modifications of my invention illustrating its utility for wireless teleplion I do not wish to be limited to the particu artarrangements shown as it will be apparent that many variations in the connections used may be made without departing from the scope of the appended claims, and that it may equally well be used for thewireless'trans mission of other signals than sound waves, or for the transmission f sound or other signals through wire circuits.
