Definitions

  • the present invention relates to compensation, and more particularly to electr c comvp'ensators.
  • An electric compensator is a device for introducing suitable time retardation into one or more electrical currents, in such a way that electrical disturbances set up in two or more receiving elements may be brought into combination in a useful manner.
  • the electric compensator may be employed to determine the direction of distant sources of radiant energy, particularly sound sources. Some of the principles employed are adaptable to the determination of the direction of sources of electric waves.
  • the compensator is adaptable also to use in focusing the receiving system on one ofseveral radiant energy sources and thus eliminating or suppressing energy from undesired sources.
  • Fig. 1 is a diagrammatical view illustrating the principle of the electric compensator as applied to two receiving units.
  • Fig. 2 is a diagrammatic development showing the principle of operation of the electric compensator switch, n connection with its circuits, for tworeceiving units.
  • Fig. 3 is a diagrammatic bottom lan view of the. switchandconnections use for two receiving units.
  • Fig. 4 is a cross section showing the structure of the rotary switch which is shown diagrammatically in Fig. 3.
  • Fig. 5 is a wiring diagram of the electric compensator and its connections for two lines of twelve receiving units each, with a development of the switch.
  • Fig. 6 is a diagram showing in perspective the switch disc and electrical connections for a compensator for two lines of twelve receiving units each. j
  • two separate translating devices may be used, particularly if the translating devices are employed with auditional interpretation, for example in the case of the use of telephone receivers as translating devices.
  • two telephone receivers as translating devices one may be applied to each ear.
  • the I sound will appear to come from the side on which is the advance receiver.
  • the sound produced by it may be retarded by such an amount that it will be in phase with the sound at the other can Under these conditions the sound will be physiologically located in a median plane through the head of the observer, or is said to be inaurally centered.
  • the physiological perception of binaural centering is found by v experience to'be accurate and refined.
  • the direction of a source of energy, particularly a source of sound, can be determined with greater definiteness and discrimination by the use of a large number of receivin devices in proper geometric arrangemen
  • a simple and eflicient arrangement consists in placing the several receivers equall spaced in a straight line. Sound coming in any. particular direction will strike these several receivers in succession so that the impulses in each receiver will have a fixed time interval behind the impulses in the adjoining receiver nearer to the source of sound. The amount of this time interval will depend upon the angle between the common base line of the receivers and the linealong which the. sound is traveling. The determination of this lating device and thereby get a maximum response.
