gorig'inal applieation filed December 24, 1921, Serial lfi'o. 524,671. Divided and this application'iiled November 8, 1924.

The prin cipa'l object of my invention is to provide a new and improved duplex telegraph system. Another; object of my inven-- tron is to provide a telegraph system with bridge arms of such relative impedance values that the received energy shall go in large measure to the receiving element. Another object of my invention is 130 provide a differential polar system with certain parts proportioned so that the received currents shalll b e highly effective in the production of signals. These and other objects of my invention will become apparent on consideration of an example which I will disclose by way of illustration. It will be understood that the invention is defined in the appended claims and the following description will refer specifically to this example of the invention.

Referring to the accompanying drawing, this is a diagram showing my invention embodied in a differential duplex system.

A metallic line is shown extending to the right and having the impedance Z. The symbol S designates a polar receiving relay, with windings connected as shown, the various connections of the windings having the respective number of turns indicated by the letters n and nzKn where K is a properly chosen constant of value less than unity.

A balancing artificial line is provided having the impedance Z =KZ.

The transmitter T is connected to the relay S differentially as shown in the drawing. The relations indicated in the drawing are the conditions for exact balance. It has been a common practice to make K equal approximately to unity. However, according to my invention, K is made less than unity and thereby the efiective power available in the relay for receiving is increased. The truth of this statement will become apparent from the following discussion.

Designate as 21 the current transmitted by the transmitting circuit .T to the line whose impedance is Z and designate as i the current transmitted to the artificial line whose impedance is Z Then The magnetizing flux in the relay due to i is A'Z 2n where A is a constant. The flux Serial No. 748,658.

a due to 2' is Ai -2Kn. The negative sign indicates that is of opposite polarity to The resultant flux due to both currents is 1 +ra i-iteaaia-2x. But from (1), i so that I f I "+..=At2n-A%-2Kn=o; 7

maximum power will be absorbed in relay S when the impedance Z of its windings in series 15 equal to the impedance of the connecting circuit, or when Z Z +Z (2) When this relation is true, the power utilized in the relay may be easily shown to be In this expression, 6 is the received voltage of the line, acting in series with Z. From (3) it is evident that the smaller K is made,-

the larger is E. If K is made equal to .2, for example, the power available for the relay is increased 67 per cent. as compared with K l. It is not practicable to make K infinitely small but a large proportion of the theoretical maximum increase in power indicated by the formula when K O, is realizable without exceeding practical limits.

Thus it will be seen that the polar receiving relay S is always balanced for electromotive forces applied by the transmitter T, but the received electromotive forces coming in over the line set up fluxes in the relay core with an eifect which is substantially cumulative in the various parts of the windings, so that the received current gives a substantial development of power in the receiving relay.

This application is a division of my app\lication, Serial No. 524,671, filed December 24;, 1921.

I claim:

1. In aduplex telegraph system, an artificial line having its ratio to the geographical line different from unity and in combinationtwo inductance windings having their turns in the same ratio whereby the transmitting element 01" the system is balancedin its elfect on the adjacent receiving element.

2. In a duplex telegraph system, an artificial line andv inductance elements having unequal values related (as compared with equal values) to increase the proportion of received power inthe receiving element, but to preserve the balance of the transmitting element on the receiving element.
