Abstract

207,535. British Thomson - Houston Co., Ltd., (Assignees of Rice, C. W.). Nov. 21, 1922, [Convention date]. Aerials; directive signalling; multiplex signalling.-A sharply-directive receiving- system comprises a number of antennµ arranged either endon or athwart the direction of the desired signals, and spaced apart from each other by a substantial fraction of the signal wave-length. Fig. 1 shows a series of three " wave aerials " 1, 2, 3 of the type described in Specification 173,315, arranged end-on to the incoming signals. Reflection transformers R1, R2, R3 transfer the cumulative effects to the rear end of the aerials, where output transformers T1, T2, T3 supply signalling and compensating currents to balanced transmission lines L1, M1 - - L3, M3, which feed through intensity-couplers 11, K1 - - 13, K3 the input circuits of coupling tubes 10, 11, 12. The output from these tubes is Fed through artificial lines PI, P2, P3 and intensity-couplers VI, V2, V3 to a combining tube 16 and thence to the receiver 18. In operation the necessary tune and phase adjustments are first made for optimum signals from each separate aerial by means of the sliders 19 - - 24, and similar adjustments are then made for the combined currents at the points 25, 26, 27 in the second series of artificial lines. For receiving multiplex signals, additional sliders 28 - - 33 are provided to obtain the necessary phase adjustments, and a separate set of coupling tubes, combining-tube and intensity-couplers is installed for each separate signal to be received. Fig. 8 shows two multiple tuned or " infinite velocity " aerials 37, 38 spaced apart broadside on to the incoming signal. Each aerial is bi-directional, but the combination results in a unidirectional receiver. The method is also described in connection with a series of ground antennµ spaced apart in the signal direction and also laterally thereof.
