SYSTEM OF RADIO TELEGBAPHY-AND TELEP Application filed June 15, 1912, Serial No. 703,836. Renewed February 5, 1919. Serial No.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, JOHN HAYS IIAM- MOND,.JI., a citizen of the United States,
without interfering with each other, and the.
simultaneous transmission and reception of a plurality of messages at each station.
The principal feature of the invention is a system of synchronously rotating interrupters which alternately connect transmitters and receivers to the antenna in such a manner that the receiver is inoperative when the transmitter is operative, and vice-versa.
. When the entire apparatus is at one station for use with one antenna, the 'interrupters are mechanically connected so as to rotate synchronously. If two nearby stations are operated on this system, the motors for the interrupters are electrically connected, in any manner Well known in the art, to obtain synchronous rotation. In this case the two stations would transmit simultaneously and receive simultaneously, with respect to each other. That is, at each station the antenna would be connected to the transmitter and the receivers would be disconnected at the same instant, so that neither station could re ceive during the instant that either transmitter would be connected for operation.
If the interrupters be revolved at a speed which will produce an ultra-audible interrupting rate, each station can transmit and receive simultaneously without mutual interference. In addition to this freedom from mutual interference my system possesses a very high degree of selectivity, since the re ceivers are tuned to a plurality of predetermined characteristics of the transmitted wave signals.
However, any speed of the interrupter or commutator may be. used that is suitable, and synchronism of the rotating interrupters or commutators may be attained by either wire or either wave connection between the different stations.

Patented Mar. 22, 192i.
Referring to the drawings Figure 1 represents a radio telegraph and telephone station on my system.
Fig. 2 represents a similar radio telegraph and telephone station in the station shown in Fig. 1.
In Fig. 1, H a high-frequency alternator or other oscillatory current generator connected through coupling coils L and L With antenna A. In circuit with antenna A are an interrupter I, coil L, and either a telephone transmitter T, or an interrupter I and a key K, according to the position of the switch S. This antenna circuit is grounded at E. The interrupter I has a frequency above the limits of audibility, and the interrupter I has a frequency within the limits of audibility. The above described apparatus constitutes the transmitting side of the station.
A lso connected to antenna A. is an open rcceiv ng clrcuitcomprising an interrupter I a co1l L and a variable condenser C. This clrcult is also grounded at E. The interrupters I and I are both mechanically con nected to the motor M, and are both operated at a rate above the limits of audibility, in such a manner that they are not in contact at the same time, but so that when vicinity of the one makes connection, the other is out of connection. Coupled to the receiving antenna circuit by means of the coils L and If is the closed oscillatory circuit composed of inductance coil L and variable condenser C ,'which closed oscillatory circuit, bv the action of rectifier It, supplies energy to receiving telephone P, and also, through coupling coils L and L to a circuit having a lower frequency, composed of inductance condenser C and receiving telephone P The telephone P is used to receive telephone messages, and the telephone P is used to receive telegraph signals.
In Fig. 2 is shown a station :similar to that in Fig. 1. H is a high frcquency alternator, whose frequency is preferably dif- H is inductively connected with transmitting antenna circuit A I L S W, which also in cludes either telephone transmitter T- or interrupter I and key K according to the position bf switch S The antenna is also connected with the receiving circuit I If G which is also grounded at E. This receiv I ing circuit is inductivelIy operate synchronously, and in cases where both the stations shown in Figs. 1 and 2 are combined in one station, the motors M and M may be connected mechanically.
Antenna cif'cuits A L C E and A L C E and closed oscillatory circuits L C and L" C are tuned to high frequencies, such as are suitable for electric wave transmission, and circuits L C P and L C P are tuned to frequencies within the limits of audibility, so as to receive telegraph signals from distant stations. These circuits of each station are in resonance with the electric wave characteristics of distant transmitting stations with which they are respecwithout interfering with each other.
tively in operative communication, and the characteristics of the transmitted electric waves from each station shown in Figs. 1 and 2 are in resonance with the receiving circuits of the respective distant stations with whichthey are in operative communication. The corresponding circuits'of the stations in Figs. 1 and 2, however, shouldv not be in tune with each other, as these stations are not intended for radio communication with each other, but are designed to be in communication with distant stations,
Various changes and modifications, within the skill of those versed in the art, may
. be made inthe particular apparatus shown and described herein, without departin from the spirit of my invention, provided I the means set forth in the following claims be employed.
