AMPLIFYING TELEGRAPHIG SIGNALS.
.Application filed .Tnnell, 1924, Serial No. 719,411. Renewed. July '29, 1926.
My invention relates broadly to amplification systems for electrical currents and more particularly to a circuit arrangement for amplifying received telegraphic signals.
One of the objects of my invention is to provide an amplification system for electri-,
cal current particularly applicable to a system in which telegraphic signals from landv ing the feeble high frequency current com ponents of telegraphic signals and causing them to actuate a responsive device while low frequency or direct current components of the signals are by-passed around the mag cause of the low frequency of operation, and
particularly because it becomes desirable, if not absolutely necessary for the magnifier, to be able to pass not only alternating currents of low frequency, but direct currents as well. l-Vhen applied for magnifying tele- I phonic frequencies, an electron tube is usually operated in conjunction with intervalvo transformers. A transformer for use with low frequency telegraph currents has a number which may be mentioned inefficiency and expensive construction. The transformer coupled multistage amplifier is limited to operation with alternating currents and will not pass direct currents. 1
in order to increase the amplitude of feeble direct. current-s, transformer coupling may be supplanted by a resistance method of coupling. However, resistance coupling is undesirable in many respects for it inefficient and has a smaller voltage amplification per stage than is produced in inductively coupled circuits. I
Difiiculties are encoun-,
f inherent disadvantages among In the present invention, the electron tube is used for the magnification of the higher frequency components only, of the received telegraphic signals. The lower frequency components of the telegraphic signals and the direct current components are usually present in such strength that it is unnecessary to magnify them to any extent. The latter current is passed directly from the line into theapparatus or responsive device for reception or recording of signals,
through a suitable impedance for controlling the signals.
My invention will be more clearly. under stood from the following specification by reference to the. accompanying drawings in which; I I Figure 1, is a diagrammatic illustration showing my improved amplification system for electron tubes where the by-pass circuit for the low frequency and direct current components of the telegraphic signals isparallel connected with the amplificationcircuit which transfers the high frequency al= ternating. currentcomp'onents of the telegraphic signals; I I

Figure 6 is diagram showing an arrangement of my amplifier in which the capacity, resistance and inductance are also used to shape the high frequency components of the currents.

Telegraphic signals of any description wherein the bypass circuit is series conspo'nsive device.
may be considered to be composed of alternating currents of a range of frequencies. The frequencies of importance range from direct current (or a current of zero frequency)' to a current at. a frequency which is approximately twice as high as the fundamental or dot frequency of the telegraph signals. Ordinarily the low frequency components are passed through the telegraph line and system without great loss. The components of higher frequency become much weakened: in transmission through the line and it frequently becomes quite impor tant to provide apparatus which will in- 1 crease' the strength ofthe components of the line signals at the higher frequencies.
My present invention accomplishes this desired result by the provision of a network for the transfer of the low frequency or direct current components of the received telegraphic signals from the line to' the re- This network may be parallel or series connected with the input circuit of the electron tube amplifier, the
' energy dividing at this point and the rela tivelywea'lr high frequency alternating current components of the signal passing through the electron tube amplifier to the responsive device. 7
Referring. more particularly to the drawings, reference character 8 represents the line system from which weal-I telegraphic signals are received. Numeral 4 represents a"-i eceiving', relaying or recording device,
'' hereinafter referred toas a responsive device, in which the magnified signals are received, and may be used either for operating'l ocal translating devices, such as sound era-printers, etc., or maybe used for working or' repeating into another line section. The electrical signal magnifier or amplifier is rep-resented at l and may be of any type although as representedin Figure 8, an electron tube amplifier is particularly applicable in increasing the feeble received current to such an amplitude that the responsive devicefunctions with accuracy. Numeral 5 represents an impedance network containing resistance, inductance and capacity in any desired combination for modifying the shape of the signals. In lieu of anetworl: 5' a magnifiermay be interposed in the circuit. That is to say, 5 might be a magnifier of the selenium type which is a relatively slow acting magnifier; while 1 might be a magnifier of the vacuum tube type. Of the current received from line 8, a portion is passed directly to receiver 4 through network: 5. The remainder of the received current is passed through amplifier or magnifier f.
The input terminals of the network 5 have been represented by reference numeral (5, while the output terminals are shown at 7.
The. current components of the higher frequen'cy are magnified by amplifier 1, and
the system may include a pluralityof tubes,
but for purposes of illustration, the amplifier has been shownas consisting of electron tube 16 having filament electrode 17, grid electrode 1 8, and plate 20. The line 8 terminating at 2-2', is electrically connected with the input circuit of the amplifier l by coupling coils 21 and 22 of transformer 9. Current of high frequency from line 8 will pass through condenser 15 and. energize primary coil 21 of amplifier 1. Secondary coupling coil 22 is connected with filament electrode 17 and grid electrode 18, comprising the input circuit of the electron tube 16. The output circuit of the tube 16 includes primary winding 23 of coupling transformer 2, inductively coupled with secondary winding 25, having terminals 33-, delivering the high frequency current component to the circuit of the responsive device 4, including win-ding 14. The cathode 17 is heated from battery 26 and space current supplied from battery 27. It will be understood that while only a single stage of elec tron tube amplification has been shown any desired number of tubes may be used with a plurality of intervalve coupling transformers.
The network 5' may contain any desired combination of inductance,- resistance and capacity, and for illustrative purposes it is shown as containing inductance 28 and resistance 29;
It-willbe observed that only direct current and alternating current of low frequency from line 8 will reach coil 13 of responsive device 4, through network 5, while current of higher frequency passes through amplifier l and is magnified and impressed upon Winding 14 of the responsive device 4.
The amplifier circuit may be grounded as shown at 12, reducing the tendency of the system to oscillate. This is a particular feature of my circuit arrangement, the system being rendered non-oscillatory to all practical purposes. Vi here the line systems terminate in a telegraph office and employ a.
i Gil tween the several circuits,
as illustrated in Fig. 7 a
I have shown in Figure 4 a magnifier of the selenium type to be substituted for the network 5. .31 isv a moving coil of the DArsonval galvanometer type, 32 is a mirror attached to or driven by the coil 31, 33 is light source including an optical system, 34 and 35 are selenium cells forming two arms of a l/Vheats tone bridge, 37' and 38 are resistances forming the remaining arms of the bridge, 36 is a battery connected across fleeting the light beam 50,- so that more of the light beam rests on selenium cell 34 and less on cell 35, or vice versa, depending upon the polarity of the signals. This causes the electrical resistance of cell to decrease and of cell 35 to increase, or vice versa, thus unbalancing the bridge. Hence a current, which is an amplified reproduction of the low frequency and direct current components of the telegraph signals, flows in outputleads 7. The characteristics of this magnifier are such that it is insensitive to high frequencies, and hence it will have a relatively unimportant effect on the high,
frequency components of the signals.
In Figure 5, I have shown an alternate organization for the arrangement 1, for amplifying the high frequency components in which a plurality of electron tubes are used, which includes, in addition to the, arrangement shown in Fig. 3, the intervalve coupling transformer 39, with primary winding 40 and secondary winding 41; electron tube 45, having filament electrode 47, grid el-ctrode 46 and plate 48. The action here is similar to that of the amplifier 1 of Figure 3, described elsewhere, except that, due to the use of a plurality of tubes, a higher degree of amplification is secured.
In Figure 6, I have shown the amplifier for the high frequency components of the signal currents in which the capacity 43, resistance 44 and inductance 49 also serve to shape the high frequency components. have also shown the use of an auto-trans former 42 instead of the usual transformer, in the output of the electron amplifier.
In the operation of my circuit arrange ment, the energy received over the-line is divided, the relatively weak portions of the received signals being amplified, and other portions of the received energy not magnis fied but passed directly to the responsive device, the action of the responsive device being controlled partly by the current from the magnifier, and partly by the current taken directly ,fromtlie line.
