It is common practice, of course, in the oper- A ation of a speech transmissionsystem of the type which includes a telephone repeater in the line to transmit, in addition to the voice frequency telephone currents, other currents.- For example, direct current may be transmitted for dialing purposes, for energization of supervisory signals at the central omce or for energiz'ation of the subscribers telephone transmitter.` Low frequency alternating current (usually of the order of 20-) may also be transmitted for Signaling purposes. In the past transmission of these auxiliary currents has presented perplexing and expensive problems. The telephone repeater, being designed to amplify currents of the order of voice-frequency, is not adapted to pass thev di-` rect current or the low frequency alternating current without resultant distortion so that it has been necessary heretofore to provide means for by-passing these currents around the repeater. The by-pass arrangements of prior systems' have, in general, been expensive, have oiered complex balancing problems and have resulted in substantial transmission loss.-
A feature of the present invention is a continuous straight-throughmpath of direct current and low frequency alternating current from one of the line sections to the other line section.
A complete understanding of the novel arrangements contemplated by the present invention as well as appreciation of the desirable features thereof will be gained by consideration of the following detailed description in connection with the annexed drawing, the single figure of which illustrates a telephone repeater including a novel path fordirect current and low frequency alternating current of the nature contemplated by the present invention.
Referring now to the drawing, two speech transmission line sections Lw and Le are shown coupled by respective hydrid coil sets Il and I2 to west-east amplier I3 and east-west amplifier I4. Hybrid coil set II includes two separate cores I5 and I6, core I5 being provided with line windings I1 and 2I, amplifier windings 22 and 23 and balancing network windings 24 and 25, while core I6 is provided with line windings 26 and 21, amplier windings 4I` and 42 and balancing network windings 43 and 46.
' Hybrid coil set I2 includes two cores 45 and 46. core 46 being provided with line windings 41 and 6I, amplier windings 62 and 58 and balancing network windings 64 and 66, while core 46 is provided with line windings 56 and 61,' amplifier windings 1I and 82 and balancing network wind- Hybrid coil setI II and associated balancing network or articial line- 16 act to couple input path 16 of west-east amplifier I3 and output path 11 cineast-west amplifier I4inconjugate relationship with each other and in energy transmitting relationship with line section Lw; similarly, hybrid coil set I2 and associated balancing network or artificial line 8I act to couple output path 82 of amplier I3 and input path 83 of amplifier I4 in conjugate relationship with each other and in energy transmitting relation- -ship with line Section Le.
Voice frequency currents received over line section Lw from the west terminal divide, onehalf' passing into output path 11 of east-west 'amplifier I4 and being lost and the usefulhalf passing into input path 16 of west-east amplifier I3. These currents, after ampliilcation by amplifier I3, are impressed on line section Le. As output path 82 and input path 83 are coupled in conjugate relationship, as'pointed out above, no part of these amplified currents enters the input path of amplifier I4.
In a manner similar tothat just described, voice frequency currents received over line section La from the east terminal divide one-half being lost in output path 82 and the useful halfv being ampliiied by east-west amplifier I4 and impressedon line section Lw.
As pointed out above, direct current and low frequency alternating current need be transmitted over the lin'e for dialing, supervision, battery supply andthe like. As illustrated, a direct continuous path is provided for these currents, one side of the path including as series elements line windings I1 and 26 of hybrid coil set II, inductances 84 and 85 and line windings 41 and 56 of hybrid coil set I2 and the other side of the path including as series-elements line windings 2I and 21 of hybrid coil set II, inductances 86 and 81 and line windings 5I and 51 of hybrid coil set I2. Inductances 84, 85, 86 and 81 and capacitances IIlI and |02 provide filtering action eiective to exclude the voice frequency currents from this path.
The provision of the straight-through continuous path contemplated by the present invention results in low loss transmission of the direct currents and low frequency alternating currents directly through the repeater section ineither f pensive elements and the perplexing problem of preventing unbalance of the speech transmission circuits attendant upon provision of the by-pass paths of prior arrangements are entirely eliminated and a substantial transmission gain, as compared to the performance of prior arrangements, is achieved.
