Abstract

1358931 Ultrasonic Doppler devices AEROSPACE RESEARCH Inc 24 Aug 1971 [3 Sept 1970] 39525/71 Heading H4D [Also in Division G4] An ultrasonic alarm system wherein a space to be supervised is illuminated by ultrasonic radiation which is reflected back, received and processed employs means for distinguishing a Doppler shift spectrum caused by background "interference", e.g. convection currents, traffic vibration, &c. from such a spectrum caused by the movement of an intruder within the space by detecting whether the spectrum is symmetrical or asymmetrical about the carrier frequency. It is stated that such a symmetrical spectrum, (13) Fig. 1B, (not shown), is produced only by interference and in a first embodiment, Fig. 2, the received signal at 24 is compared at 26 with a reference to produce signals at 28, 30 whenever the received signal lies in an upper sideband or lower sideband respectively. The outputs are full wave rectified at 34, 38, to yield respectively a positive and negative signal which are summed at 40 and integrated at 42 to activate an alarm 46 whenever a threshold 44 is exceeded. In the event only of a symmetrical Doppler spectrum, the signals in the summer and integrator will yield zero over any integrating period. The second embodiment, Fig. 6, the received signal is mixed with two quadrature reference signals, Fig. 4 (not shown), and the two resultant envelope signals are added and subtracted to form two signals proportional to Cos #t and sin #t where # is proportional to an instantaneous Doppler shift. If 0 is positive then the one wave will lead the other and vice versa if # is negative. The two signals are filtered at 86, 88 and compared with ground potential at 90, 92 to produce positive or negative outputs which are taken as inputs to a flip-flop 94, one acting as a clocking input to display at the output Q the polarity applied at D at the clocking instant. If the signal at D is leading that at clock, then the Q output will always be positive and vice-versa when D is lagging. The output Q causes corresponding one of two positive or negative full wave rectified detector outputs indicative of the instant Doppler level 102, 104 to be passed to the integrator 98 and thence via threshold 100 to an alarm. If the spectrum is asymmetrical, on more occasions will one signal lead or lag the other than vice-versa and an output alarm is produced.
