Abstract

288,237. Electrical Research Products, Inc., (Assignees of Mohr, F.). April 6, 1927, [Convention date]. Copying-telegraphs; television. - Relates to television apparatus, copying telegraphs, optical phonographs and like apparatus in which a picture or record is scanned by an aperture moving relatively thereto, and comprises means for eliminating the blurring which arises from the finite width of the aperture. Thus in a television transmitter, Fig. 1, in which the optical projection of a film 1 illuminated by a lamp 2 is analysed by a disc 3 having spirally arranged apertures 3<a>, Fig. 1<a>, the current taken from the photo-electric cell 4 is proportional to the average illumination extending over the picture-element corresponding to an aperture 3<a> and consequently represents a blurred image. The invention is based on the following analysis : the horizontally moving aperture is regarded as made up of elementary vertical strips, each of which controls an elementary fraction of the photo-electric current which, for a definite scanning-speed, is a function of time. This function is the same in form but different in phase for different elementary strips, and the current due to the whole aperture is obtained by integrating across the aperture, with respect to phase. It is shown that, when the integration is carried out for each of the Fourier components into which the function may be resolved, the result depends on the width of the aperture, the wave-length of the component, and other factors : so that the finite size of the aperture differently affects different components. The blurring of the transmitted picture is attributed to this fact. The invention consists in the interposition of a filter 8 between the photo-electric cell 4 and output terminals a of the transmitter, and in a similar arrangement at the receiver, the filter being so calculated as to equalize the effect of the size of the aperture for all components. A single filter may compensate for the double distortion arising at the transmitter and the receiver.
