Abstract

518,433. Wireless receiving systems. THORNTON. A. A. (Philco Radio & Television Corporation). Aug. 26, 1938, No. 25113. [Class 40 (v)] A noise-limiting circuit is so arranged that the amplitude of the noise pulse required to cut-off transmission is a function of the signal frequency. Reversely-connected diodes D1, D2 are in series in the path from the signal source E to utilization means 3. A constant-current bias is applied to the diodes by a degenerative pentode V1 so that for signal amplitudes above a desired value in either direction the current through one diode is reduced to zero and the signal transference is cut off. By making the resistances 11, 12 unequal, a cut-off characteristic which is unsymmetrical about the zero axis can be secured. If one diode is removed, then limitation occurs in one direction only. The cut-off level is reduced at higher signal frequencies by the network R1, C which increases the signal-current flowing through the diodes at these frequencies. Attenuation of the higher frequencies is prevented by the use of circuit R, L, which together with R1, C, forms a constant-resistance network. Any derived characteristic of cut-off amplitude against frequency may be obtained by using suitable frequency-selective networks. The limiter may be made to operate over a wide range of s.gnal strength by varying the constant-current bias on the diodes by A.V.C. potentials from 15 applied to the first grid of V1 at terminals 14.
