Definitions

  • My invention relates to improvements in methods and systems for television communication.
  • One of the objects of my invention is the provision of an improved system for two-way television communication, in which a single cathoderay tube at each station serves both as a pick-up device to develop picture signals for transmission to the distant station and as a receiver or viewing device to produce an image of the view being transmitted from the distant station, thereby greatly simplifying and reducing the cost of the apparatus over that of the prior systems referred to in which separate pick-up and viewing tubes must be used at each station.
  • Another object of my invention is the provision of an improved television system in which the single scanning device at each station operates both as a pick-up device and as a viewing device and in such manner as to give simultaneous two-way communication between the two stations.
  • Figure 1 is a simplified, diagrammatic, plan view of a two-way television system constructed and operating in accordance with my invention
  • Fig. 2 is a simplified, diagrammatic, side-elevational view, partly in perspective, of another twoway television system constructed and operating in accordance with my invention
  • Fig. 3 is a simplified, diagrammatic, side-elevational view of still another two-way television system constructed and operating in accordance with my invention
  • Fig. 4 is an enlarged, fragmentary, sectional view showing the screen construction in Fig. 3;
  • Fig. 4a is a view similar to Fig. 4, showing a modification
  • Fig. 5 is a simplified, diagrammatic view, partly in perspective, showing a modification of the system in Fig. 3 to give simultaneous two-way communication between two stations.
  • the numerals l0 and II designate cathode-ray tubes disposed respectively at the stations A and B. Since these tubes are similar in construction and manner of operation, only one will be described in detail.
  • l comprises a. photosensitive screen Pa and a fluorescent screen Fa, disposed on opposite sides respectively of the tube axis, and means in the form of an electron gun for developing a ray l3 of electrons focused on and directed at either of the screens.
  • the electron gun consists of a heater M, a cathode IS, a modulating electrode or control grid l6, and anodes ll, I8 and I9.

  • a light image of the view or object 24 for transmission is projected by a suitable lens system 25 onto the photosensitive surface of the screen P9. of the tube Ill.
  • the electron ray I3 is made to scan only the screen Pa
  • 3b in tube II is made to scan only the fluorescent surface of the screen Fb in a manner hereinafter explained.
  • Picture signals, accordingly developed in the well known manner by the tube II] are supplied to an amplifier 26 through a lead 2'! common to and coming from the screens Pa and Fa.
  • the amplified picture signals are supplied through a line 28 and the closed switch 29 to the modulating electrode is of tube whereby the intensity of the electron ray

Accordingly, on the fluorescent screen F0. at station A is produced a visible image, seen from the point 303,, of the light image on the photosensitive screen Pb at station B.
  • the shifting of the electron rays 83 and l3b to cause them to scan the photosensitive and fluorescent screens selectively is accomplished by changing the positioning voltages applied to the deflecting plates for deflection of the rays at the line frequency.
  • This may be done in a well known manner by changing a value of usual position-control resistance by means of a switch 33, and making the respective polarities such that the electron rays shift in the proper directions. That is, with the switch 33 open, for example, the electron rays l3 and l3b are caused to scan only the screens Pa and Fb, respectively, whereas with this switch closed, the electron rays I3 and I311 are caused to scan only the screens Fe. and Pb, respectively. It will be understood that instead of positioning the rays electrostatically, this may be done by means of a deflecting coil and a local source of D. C. potential.
  • the photosensitive and fluorescent surfaces have been shown as being formed on one piece of metal, with the common leads 2i and 2%. In some cases, however, it may be advisable to have the photosensitive and fluorescent surfaces on separate plates with separate leads, or to mount the photosensitive surface and the fluorescent surface on separate sheets of mica or glass.

  • are next dusted onto the binder material at the segregated elemental areas.
  • Silver is now sputtered onto the fluorescent surfaces and the ordinary process for caseium cells carried out. This consists in properly oxidizing the silver, flashing the cascium pellet and then baking properly. There then results a mosaic surface which is both photosensitive and fluorescent.

  • the switch 43 In transmitting from station F to station E, the switch 43 is placed in position x, and a light image of the view or object 24f at station F is projected onto the screen PrFr.
  • Picture signals developed by the tube 3! are supplied to the input side of amplifier 42 by the lead 27: and. through switch 43. From the output of, the video amplifier, the amplified signals pass through the switch 43.and connection 28f to the control electrode lfie of tube 36, and modulate the intensity of ray 3e in accordance with variations in the picture signals. Since both electron rays are scanning the respective screens synchronously and in the same manner, there will be produced on the fluorescent screen of tube 36 a visible image of the object 24f.
  • the switch 43 In transmitting from station E to station F, the switch 43 is placed in position y, and a light image of the view or object 248 at station E is projected onto the screen PeFe.
  • Picture signals developed by the tube 36 are supplied to the input side of amplifier 42 by the lead 212 and and through switch 433. From the output of the video amplifier, the amplified signals pass through the switch 43 and connection 28c to the control electrode I61 of tube 31, and modulate the intensity of ray l3: in accordance with variations in the picture signals. There is then produced on the fluorescent screen PrFr of tube 3'! a visible image of the object 24a.
  • each tube then functions alternately as a transmitter and as a receiver and at a rate at least as high as the rate for persistence of vision, and when one tube is functioning as a transmitter the other tube is functioning as a receiver.
  • a form of mechanical switch for this purpose, to replace the switch 43 in Fig. 3 is shown in Fig. 5.
  • This comprises rotary contacts 44 and 45 fixed on a shaft 46 insulated at 41 and 48 and driven at the rate of 30 revolutions per second by a synchronous motor 49.
  • the contact 44 engages the fixed contacts 50 and 5i alternately and each at the rate of 30 times per second.
  • the contact 45 engages the fixed contacts 52 and 53 alternately and each at the rate of 30 times per second.
  • tube 31 is functioning as a transmitter and tube 36 is functioning as a receiver. That is, picture signals from the screen PrFr are supplied through the line 21f, contacts 50 and 44 and brush 54 to the input side of the video amplifier 42.
  • the amplified picture signals are supplied through the brush 55, contacts 45 and 52 and line 28: to the control electrode I 6e of tube 36.
  • the intensity of the ray l3e is therefore modulated in accordance with the picture signals from tube 31 to produce on the fluorescent screen PeFe a visible image of the object at station F. This action takes place during each half revolution of the shaft 46.
  • electron rays can be deflected electromagnetically in one or both directions, instead of electrostatically, as shown and described.
  • local sweep circuits may be provided at each station, and synchronizing pulses employed to hold these in step.
  • the various signals can be transmitted from one station to the other over radio circuits, rather than over a direct wire circuit.
  • Secondary-emission screens with fixed patterns, may be used in lieu of the photosensitive screens in Figs. 1 and 2, and. the collector electrodes may be omitted and the picture signals taken from the fluorescent screens.
  • the system shown in Fig. 1 may be used as a regenerative amplifier by closing switches 29 and 29a and adjusting the gain of the video amplifier at the viewing station so the system does not become overloaded. Assuming that station A is transmitting to station B, it is apparent that there will be a change in secondary emission of the fluorescent screen Fb, and this will cause a varying voltage to be fed into the video amplifier 26! Therefore, the electron ray l3 of tube l0 will be modulated, causing a greater signal output from the photosensitive screen Pa than would otherwise be the case.
