ELECTRIC- WAVE FILTER.
Application filed December 31,1920. Serial 170.4%,388.
This invention relates to electric wave filters adapted to be employed in a line such as a telephone line, to prevent the passage of currents of certain frequencies and permlt the passage of currents having other frequencies.
It has for its object to produce filters of various ty )es which have the characteristics of types 0 filters in general already known.
but which may be manufactured from a less amount of material, thus reducing the cost and size of the filter.
In accordance with the invention, filter sections are employed which have similar 5 impedances spaced apart in the direction of current propagation but having mutual impedance therebetween, and which have one or more impedanccs located between the mutually related impedances. The effect of mu- 0 tual impedance in general is to add an impedance to the common portion without the use of additional apparatus.
The invention will be more fully understood from the following detailed descrip- 'tion and claims, taken in connection with the accompanying drawings in which Fig. 1 rep resents schematically, a filter section em: bodying the invention, Figs. 2, 3 and 4 represent modified forms of the invention.
.30 Fig. 5 represents a filter having a plurality of sections of the type shown in Fig. 2; Fig. 6 represents a filter without mutual inductance which is electrically the equivalent of Fig. 5. and Figs. 7 and 8 represent filter sections which are the equivalents of Figs. 1 and 4 respectively.
In Fig. l is shown a filter section having a shuntcondenser C and series of impedances each comprising a condenser C and an in- 4 ductance L in parallel. The inductances L, are wound in series opposing relation on the core 8. By series opposing relation is meant that relation in which the coils are connected in series in such a direction that the fiux produced by the current in one coil is opposed or decreased by that produced by the current flowing in the other coil. This results in a transformer action and as is well known, is equivalent to the insertion of an additional self inductance in a branch comductanceis shown at M, in Fig. 7. -The inductance due to magneticleakage remains as shown at L,M in Fig. 7.
Fig. 1 may be regarded as a general case of which Fig. 2 is a specific form having only inductance in its series arms. It L denotes the self-impedance of each winding, M the mutual impedance, and C the impedance of the shunt condenser in a section of the filter shown in Figs. 2 and 5, and if the impedances in Fig. 6 have the values indicated on the drawing, it can be shown by Kirchhofis laws that a section of the former is equivalent to a section of the latter. Assume that equal electromotive forces E are applied to the left hand side of the first sectionin Figs. 5 and 6, and that the first sections are short-circuited at mid'series at the right. A mid-series termination is one which includes one half of the series inductance of the terminal section. Designating the total current entering each filter as I and I respectively, and the currents in the condensers by I and I respectively, then by Kirchhoffs second law, the currents in the short-circuited branch are I I and I 'I respectively. By Kirchhofis first law we obtain from Fig. 5 by going around the first mesh:
I :I L-M)+ C( and by going around the outer mesh:
EIILL L-1 M+ I I L-JLM, or
E:I (2L2M)I (LM) (2) In Fig. 6 by going around the first mesh we obtain:
J J and by going around the outer mesh:
12:1. (L"M) (I 'I 1PM) By comparison of equations (1) and (2) I Figs. 5 and 6 are equal.
Z2 =0 (5) and Z 1 2 4 (6) In the filter of Fig. 6, Z =j2(L-.M) m, and
in which ;i= 1, L and M represent inductance, C represents capacity, and e::21rf, in which represents frequency. Combining (7) and (8),
Z, 2(LM)w 2(LM)Cw Z l MCaF- 1 Assuming 0, we get from equation 9,
w=0 orlf=O Assuming g-Z -4, we get f: ac L M (10) Therefore, the filter of Fig. 6, and hence that of Fig. 5, also, will transmit freely all frequencies between 0 and It was shown in Patent No. 1,227,113 above referred to that the propagation constant I of a filter of this type is determined by the equation:
l P-cosh 1 2 -l-1) (11) This may be expressed:
Since the quantity under the radical will be infinite when MG... =1, it is evident from equation (13), that the attenuation will be a maximum when MCw II, or
21r /l\l (l This is the condition of resonance in the shunt arm. If the frequency of resonance as determined by equation (14) be denoted by f the cut-off frequency, as determined by e nation (10), by f and the ratio 1:! b a,
it will be seen that any desired sharpness of cut-oif can be obtained by assigning a positr'e value to a more or less approaching unity.
If the core 8 be specially designed to be free from hysteresis and eddy currents there will be very little resistance effectively in the shunt arm of Fig. 2 as compared with that of a shunt arm of Fig. 6, since the latter contains the direct current resistance of the winding of inductance M. It follows that the maximum attenuation of a filter of the type shown in Figs. 2 and 5 can be made to approach more nearly infinity than that of Fig. 6.
In Fig. 3, is shown a convenient arrangement for varying the self-impedances and the mutual impedance of the windings in a filter section of the type shown in Fig. 2. The coils L are wound on sleeves 10 and 11. Sleeve 10 may be mounted on a support (not shown) and sleeve 11 is pivotally connected to sleeve 10 as indicated at 12. Cores 14 and 15 are mounted for endwise movement in the sleeves 10 and 11. It is apparent that the magnetic leakage, and consequently the mutual inductance, may be varied by rotating the sleeve 11 about its pivot 12, and that the self-inductances may be varied by sliding the cores'14 and 15 in and out.
By methods similar to those used above in connection with Figs. 5 and 6, it can be shown that the sections shown in Figs. 1 and 4 are electrically equivalent to sections having the forms shown in Figs. 7 and 8 respectively. The characteristics of a filter having sections of the form of Figs. 4 or 8 are similar to those of the filter shown in Fig. 8 of the Campbell Patent No. 1,493,600, above referred to. That is, it is a high ass filter which may be given a sharp cut-o by making the frequency of resonance approach the frequency of cut-off.
