tems and more particularly to improvements in.
signalling systems of the frequency shift category.
A principal object of the invention relates to improved discriminator and detector arrangements for use in frequency shift telegraph systems and the like.
Another object is to provide an improved automatic frequency control arrangement for usein controlling the in-tune condition of frequency shift telegraph apparatus.
Another object is to provide an improved tuning indicator control arrangement for indicating the in-tune or out-of-tune condition of frequency shift apparatus.
A feature of the invention relates to a frequenc discriminator network having the components so correlated and designed as to provide a plurality of crossover points of Zero potential corresponding tomark and space signal conditions. Y Another feature relates to a frequency discriminator network having an over-all frequency versus output potential characteristic, which exhibits three crossover points with the zero output axis.
'A further feature relates to a frequency discriminator network for use with frequency shifted carrier wherein any out-of-tune or undesired frequency shift condition in the system results in potential changes of substantially the same magnitude at both ends of the frequency shift range. A further feature relates to a frequency discriminator network composed of a plurality of separate discriminator units, each of which has a frequency versus output characteristic with only a single crossover point with the zero axis, the networks being combined so that the over-all characteristic has a plurality of Zero crossover points corresponding respectively to the mean of the frequency shifted spectrum, and also to the limits of the said spectrum, which limits represent for example, mark and space signals.
Astill further feature relates to the novel organization, arrangement and relative interconnection of parts which cooperate to provide an improved frequency discriminator particularly useful in frequency shift signalling apparatus. Other features and advantages not particularly set forth will be apparent after a consideration of the following detailed descriptions and the appended claims;
.In the drawing:
Fig. 1 shows in diagrammatic form a frequency shift control and tuning indicator system embodying features of the invention.
10 Claims. (Cl. Z50-8) Figs.,2, 3 and 4 are curve diagrams explanatory of'the invention.
Fig. 5 is a modification of Fig. 1.
Within recent years, the so-called frequency shift method of transmitting telegraph mark and space signals has come into comparatively wide use. In the case of radio carrier shift transmission, the radiated wave consists of a mark frequency and a space frequency. When such sys-v tems are provided with automatic frequency control or tuning indicators to keep the apparatus in the in-tune state, separate control channels usually regulated by respective potentiometers are required for the two conditions corresponding respectively to `mark and space. This has been necessary heretofore, because of the frequency versus voltage characteristic of the usual discriminators. Such discriminators have only a single crossover. point with the zero output axis, regardless of whether the system is in tune or out of tune, and this crossover point corresponds to the mean frequency of the limits between which the carrier is shifted for mark and space. When the frequency of the carrier drifts, this is manifested by opposite polarity conditions at the limits of the vfrequency shift spectrum and the change in detected output is greater at one end than at the other. Since the transmitted wavevmay rest on either the mark or space condition for indefinite time intervals, any tuning indicator or automatic frequency control device must respond equally to either condition. The present inventionprovides a discriminator and a detector arrangement having the necessary equal change output at the mark and space frequencies regardless of the amount of frequency drift or out-of-tune condition. In accordance .with the invention, thedlscriminator network employs two discriminators to obtain an over-all characteristic in which there are two points of zero potential corresponding to the mark and space conditions, and which provide output potentials varying by the same amount for a given change ln drift in the mark and space frequencies.
Referring to Fig. 2, there is shown a typical characteristic curve of frequency versus output, using a conventional frequency discriminator. Frequencies Fs and Fm represent the "in-tune condition, wherein the crossover point with the zero output axis is symmetrically located between the mark frequency Fm and the space frequency Fs. Frequencies Fs' and Fm represent an out-oftune or frequencydrift condition, from which it will beseen that the change in the mark output is an increase in the negative direction, while the change in the space output is a decrease in the positive direction, and these two outputs are of different amplitude.
I have found that if a discriminator having a relatively broad band characteristic such as that of Fig. 2 is.- suitably combined with a similar narrow band. discriminator having a characteristic such as shown in Fig. 3 for example, there results an overall characteristic such as shown in Fig. 4. In Fig. 4, Fs and Fm represent respectively the space and mark frequencies for the in-tune condition. For the out-of-tune condition caused by a drift in frequency equal to AIF, the mark and space frequencies have drifted tothe points Ffm and Fs. It should be observed that when the mark and space frequencies drift by the amount AF, the detected output changes from to 0-a.
'I'his change in detected output is the same bothv for the mark and space condition. Such a characteristic is different froin the usual discriminator characteristic lsuch. as shbwn'i'n Fig. 2 or'Fig. 3 in which a single frequency is applied to obtain a positive and negative'detected voltage as the frequency changes'.
In order to obtain the resultant characteristic f Fig. 4, it is necessary to combine the discriminators represented bythe characteristics of Figs. 2 and'3 in such a way that the broad characteristic of Fig. 2 is subtracted from the sharp characteristic of Fig. 3.. The circuit arrangement for achieving this necessary combination of the two characteristics is shown in Fig. 1. In this ligure, the frequency'shifte'd signals are applied at terminals I, 2'froni any well-known source 'of frequency shifted carrier. For example; this carrier 'may have a mean frequency 'of Fo and it may pe shifted in the positive direction to frequency Fm to represent a mark signal and in the negative direction to frequency Fs to represent a space sigf nal. The frequency' shifted carrier 'is applied across potentiometer resistance 3l which is connected respectively to the control grids of two vgrid-controlled amplifiertubes 4, of any wellknownftype. The control of tube 4 may be lco'nnected directly to the high potentialend of rel sistance 3, while the "cont'rolgrid of tube 5 is connected to 'the resistance 3 bymeans of a sliding v'pot'e'ntiorneter contact 3. Amplifier tube 4 feeds a frequency 'discriminator 'I comprising the coupled inductances 8, 9j, tuning condensers I 0, II, andthe couplingcondenser I2. Likewise the amplifier tube 5 feeds a discriminator I3 comprising coupled inductances I4, I5', respective tuning condensers I6, I1, and coupling condenser I8. The discriminators 'I and I3 are preferably of the. well-known phase shift Vtype in which the usual opposite-slope characteristics are presented to the respective diodes I9-20 and 2I-22. The
provide a. .phase change with Yfrequency which results in an. amplitude change applied to the respective sets of diodes. This phase shift action is explained in Ter'mans Radio Engineering Handbook, page586. The rectied outputy of the two. diodes is takenoff symmetrically from the respective diode load resistors 23--2'4 and 25-26 and their respective by-pass condensers ZTI-28 and 2-9-30. The variousv elements of the discriminator 'I. are adjusted. so that the character- .l Y
istic. curve. of frequency versus. voltage at the points. 3|, 32. oorrespondsto that ofFi'g. 3, while the. characteristic curve of frequency versus voltagefat the .points 33, 3.4 isrepresented by Fig. 2.
-.As shown. in Fig. '1. the detectedr outputsof the- Atwo discriminators I and I3" are connected in series opposing, so that the ordinates of the characteristic of Fig. 2 are subtracted from the corresponding ordinates of Fig. 3. This result is achieved by the series connection of the D. C. outputs of the diode detectors as shown in Fig. 1, so that there results a simple arithmetic subtraction.
The resulting combined output of the two discriminators may be applied over conductor 35 to any well-known automatic frequency control device 36 which controls the frequency of the frequency shift transmitter or the frequency shift receiver whose in-tune condition is to be controlled. At the same time, this resultant combined output may be applied to a grid-controlled tube 31 whose plate current circuit is connected vto a suitable meter 38 which produces an indication proportional to the out-of-tune condition or frequency drift AF.
By means of potentiometer contact 6, the relative magnitudes of the broad and sharp discriminator levels can be adjusted. Adjustment of the contact 6 will vary the slope of the various parts of the characteristic of Fig. 4 and will thereby furnish a means for varying the separation between the points Fs and Fm. Normally contact 6 is adjusted so that the distance lc (Fig. 4) is equal to distance I.
' Referring to Fig. 5, there is shown an alterna tive method of combining the characteristics of the broad and sharp discriminators. Parts of Fig. 5 corresponding to those of Fig. 1 are designated alike. In general, the arrangement of Fig. 5 is the same as that of Fig. l, with the exception that a single pair of diodesV 39 and 40 are used, and the broad and sharp characteristics of the two discriminators 'I and I3 are combined before detection. For this purpose the voltage from the primary coil I4 in discriminator I3 is fed through a single condenser I8 to the connected center tap points 4I and 42 of the two discriminators. This can be done because all that is required for discriminator I3 is a co-action between the unretarded voltage directly from the plate of tube 5. and the retarded voltage from the secondary I5. The sharp selectivity retarded component for the characteristic of Fig. 3 is obtained from discriminator l, while the broad selectivity component is obtained from discriminator I3. These two components are combined with the unretarded component applied through condenser I8 to give the resultant characteristic 'shown in Fig. 4. The resulting automatic frequency control voltage can be tapped oif via conductor 43 which then corresponds to conductor 35 of Fig. 1, and this tappedoff voltage may be used to control any suitable automatic frequency control device for the frequency shift apparatus or it may produce a visual indication in a suitable meter such as the meter 38`in Fig. 1.
While certain specific embodiments have been disclosed herein, various changes and. modifications may be made therein without departing from the spirit and scope of` the invention..
