Abstract

PURPOSE:To control automatically the volume of a terminal equipment by transmitting a control signal for controlling the volume of the terminal as a composite signal of a televison signal from the center of a CATV system with the aid of one carrier and separating the control signal at the receiving side. CONSTITUTION:Out of composite signals transmitted and inputted into the terminal equipment from the center of a CATV system, a broadcast signal wave Fa passes through a band-pass filter 21 and an RF amplifier 22, mixed with the signal from a partial oscillator 24 by a mixer 23 to be converted into an intermediate frequency signal, amplified by an intermediate frequency amplifier 25, detected by an FM detector 26 and broadcasted from a speaker 30 through a control signal separator circuit 27 and an electronic volume 28. On the other hand, the control signal among the composite signals is separated by the control signal separator circuit 27, controls the electronic volume 29 so as to be maximum, whereby a voice broadcasted from the speaker 30 is automatically louder.

In order to solve this problem, in the past, as shown in Figure 3, normally only the broadcast signal Fa was transmitted, but in the event of an emergency broadcast, a control signal Fc was also transmitted from the center in addition to the broadcast signal Fa. This automatically controls the VR of the subscriber's receiver to the maximum.

(Problems to be solved by the invention) In the conventional transmission method, the control signal Fc and the broadcast signal Fa are each transmitted using separate carrier waves, so in the conventional method, the equipment on the transmitting side and the equipment on the receiving side are complicated. There is a problem with becoming.

In addition, in the conventional method, there are two carrier waves, so the configuration on the receiving side requires a separate path for transmitting the broadcast signal Fa and a path for transmitting the control signal Fc, as shown in Figure 4. The equipment is also complicated and there is no problem.

(Means for solving the problem) As shown in FIG. 1, the volume control method of the terminal according to the invention in this section is such that the control signal wave Fc is changed to the broadcast signal wave Fa as necessary.
In addition, the control signal wave Fc is added to the broadcast signal wave Fa and transmitted as a composite signal on one carrier wave, and this signal is separated on the receiving side as shown in Fig. 2 to control the VR of the terminal. This is how it was done.
