To all whom it may concern: I
Be it known that I, HENRY Josnrn Room), a British su elect, of Marconi House, Strand, London, W.- England, have made certain new and useful Improvements in Beceivers for Wireless Telegraphy (for WhlCll I have filed applications in Great Britain,,-

This invention relates to improvements in receivers for wireless telegraphy and has for its object the elimination of atmospherlcs.
It is well known that an atmospheric, being highly damped, causes the receiving circuits to oscillate at their own natural frequency and cannot therefore be eliminated by tuning these circults. It 1s also well known that if an oscillatory potential of a certain frequency be induced in an oscillatory circuit of a different natural frequency two sets of oscillatlons are produced in that circuit, namely a transient free oscillatioii of the natural frequency of the circuit and a forced oscillation of the fre-. quency of the induced potential, the latter oscillation being transient if this potential is caused by damped waves and permanent, if it is caused by undamped or continuous waves.
According to the present invention I make the natural frequency of the receiving aerial different from that of the received waves so that both the forced and the free oscillations occur producing the well known phenomenon of beats and I rectify the resultant current and carry it to a circuit tuned to the beat frequency and I may directly.
bility it is necessary to employ one of the well known devices for causing these beats to produce audible indications as for example a rectifier, or in the case of continuous waves a ticker or the generation of an other frequenc which will interfere with the inaudible requency and produce beats of an audible frequency.
' Where such a device is used for receiving continuous or nearly continuous waves, it is obvious that the transient free oscillations of the aerial will notv produce'effective beats with the continuing forced oscillations, and in such cases it is desirable to generate a continuous oscillation of a frequency which is different from that of the forced oscillations and may be equal to the natural frequenc of the aerial. These locally produced osci lations will interferewith the forced oscillations and produce the required beat frequency, while they either will not intera condition of saturation so that the'oscilla-,
In Figure 1, A is the aerial slightly out of tune with the incoming signal waves. B is 'a circuit which is coupled to the aerial and which is preferably aperiodic. D is a circuit connected to the circuit B through a rectifying crystal C and tuned to the frequency of the beats due to the forced and free oscillations and T is a telephone inductively coupled to the circuit D.
With such a simple arrangement however it may be difficult to get the beat frequency unaffected by atmospherics and yet low enough to be within the limits of audibility and to obviate this difliculty I ma employ the arrangement illustrated in igure 2. A B C, D are the same as before but D is now coupled throu h an intermediate circuit E to a circuit 1 in which oscillations can be induced by means of a local oscillation circuit F of such a frequency as to interfere with the oscillations in D producing beats of a frequency within the limits of audibility. The circuit B is connected through a second rectifier Q to a circuit D connected to a telephone.
Figure 3 is similar to Figure 1 except that -a local oscillation circuit F is provided for eneratin continuous oscillators in B for inter ering with the forced oscillations in the aerial when continuous oscillations are employed for signalling. The frequency of the oscillations induced in circuit D by circuit F may be equal to the natural frequency of the aerial.
