This invention relates to phase shifting 10 the phase of the current in a part of the systern in order to bring it into phase or in opposition to the current inanother part ofthe;
system. Thus, for example, in a radio receivlng system, employing a plurality of antonnes, directional selectivity is produced by varying the phase offthe current in one antenna so that it will oppose the current fromv the same source produced in the other antenna, thus, effectively balancing out an un- 2 desired signal or-other source of interference.
My invention resides in a phase shifting network having a constant characteristic impedance, negligible attenuation, and phase constants which, over the desired frequency range, are very accurately proportional to I frequency.
, The invention will be clearly understood Y from the following description when read in connection with the attached drawing of which'Figure 1 shows animpedance network of the lattice type representing aninfinite number of elements andhaving a constant characteristic impedance,the said figure illustrating the description of the underlying principle upon which the invention is based Fig. 2 represents a network of the one parameter type, which network inayiemploy either fixed units or variable units, in which case thephase shift may bevaried through a pre- .40 determined range of values; .Fig. 3 is a network of two parameter type; Fig tis a composite network of the threeparameter type and Fig. 5Lare characteristic curves repre-.
senting the characteristics of'the networks being either single sections or composite sections- The general form ofnetworkof single section type having a constant impedance B is illustrated in Fig. 1 and the propagation constant of that network is given by L JZM *1;- a /2R (11) Where z z fi i In Fig.1,- z representsthe total series impedance of the network and z represents the total lattice impedance. 'The series"imped ance is represented as being equally divided between the twosides of'the circuit, each half having a value 2 /2. In order that the total lattice impedance shall equal z 'each shunt unit has the'value2a a It will be remembered that if we terminate a plurality of networks inseries, each of the'types shown in Fig. l, byan impedance--R, the impedance looking into the opposite end of the-said plurality of networks will equal R.
The derivation of the'formulae for the different sections will-nowbeshown, the number of parameters corresponding to the number of different series elements involved.-
Onejparameter lattice; M
In this network, which is shown in Fig. 2,
. the series elements is an inductance L which is preferably uniformly distributed between the two sidesof the circuit in order to maintain a balanced condition. The lattice ele ments are the condensers C 7 z 1 f v r where v 7 f=frequency V g=1rLi1/R, and L =gR/7r==L 7 Substituting in equation (1), the value for V 2R given by (2) equation (1 )b ecomes V 1+'z:fg

If at f=f 3 19 then P=G /f (4) In the notation of Fig. 2,
Two parameter lattice In this network, which is shown in Fig. 3,
the total series element is an anti-resonant in ductance L and capacity 0 /2. The lattice elements are resonant paths each made up of an inductance 11 /2 in series with a capacity 1,. As will be seen where Three parameter composite lattice This network, shown in Fig. l, is made up of one each of the two preceding sections. For this composite section the phase constant is given from (1), (2), and ((3) by 1 f 1 ifg'1 ?jhf m with the same meanings attached to g, 171), and
m as above. Theme,

From (11) follows the linear relation PifG Q -S'= G/;. (12) Fixing the phase at three frequencies determines these coeliicients P, Q, and S. The relations between g, h, m and the fm'mer are the following:

from which cubic /3 c\/b +e The general equations set forth hereinbefore, for the one, two, and three parameter networks, will now be applied to the design of phase shifting networks having specific values, the purpose of which application is to more fully describe the invention.
Let it be assumed that the requirements to be met by the networks are as follows: (a) a constant characteristic impedance of F. equal to 600 ohms; (b) a continuously varied phase shift which is proportional. to frequency through the frequency range from 50 to kilocycles per second, the total phase shift range being from zero to 250 degrees at 50 kiloc-ycles per second; (0) over any frequency band of 5 kilocycles per second in the range set forth in (b), the variations should be less than 1/10 degree for the phase and less than -.025 TU or the attenuation; and 1:25
where to 15 degree continuously variable section v This section has one parameter which at any frequency is determined from (3) and (4) and the elements from (5). The inductances and capacities, L and C must be ad- 1 Justable over a continuous range and have the magnitude-phase characterlstics contamed 1n the followlng relations between inagniture and phase at 50,000 cycles/sec.
