This is the (11H-mth harmonic of the fundamental frequency fi. Since the carrier oscillation disappears, the special advantage of this method is that the carrier frequency does not need to be highly constant or stable. With a carrier frequency of a few megacycles and a fundamental frequency f1 of 1 kc. the deviation or limits of frequency variation may amount to over 100 kc. Side band frequencies with n=m=100 then occur. There is thus a, multiplication of the fundamental frequency f1 up to a factor n-l-m=200.
Fig. 3 shows a, further modified arrangement according to the invention. 'Ihe difference between this arrangement and that shown in Fig. 2 is the fact that the band-pass lters are for different frequency ranges. Band-pass filter BP; allows the carrier frequency and all upperside band frequencies up to the nth component to pass, that is fu-i-Zmfi. Band-pass filter BP2 only allows the frequency fo-mfi to pass. After passing the modulator M and the low-pass filter TP, a spectrum of successive oscillations 2(m+n)f1 is obtained.
Fig. 4 shows an arrangement which prevents the amplitudes of individual components in the spectrum from disappearing. It is based on the fundamental arrangement shown in Fig. 1. At the output end of the low-pass filter TP, where the fundamental frequency f1 and the spectrum of its harmonics are present, provision is made to feed back or return a portion of the output over a band filter BPa and a frequency multiplier V to the reactance control element R. If a harmonic, for instance the pth harmonic, is very weak or not even present, the fundamental frequency ,f1 is multiplied p-times in the multiplier. The current or voltage of frequency pfi which is thus obtained, is then applied to the reactance control R of the generator G together with the current of fundamental frequency f1. The side bands fuipfi which were missing from theoriginal spectrum are now present in the spectrum of the frequency-modulated oscillation of generator G. Further harmonics are also formed which a may cause a desired amplification of further Weak harmonics. The additional multiplier V may be omitted, this depending upon the amplitude distribution of the frequency spectrum.
Two practical applications of the method according to the invention are now described. Fig. 5 shows an arrangement for dividing a given frequency. The input energy of frequency which is to be reduced to the frequency f1, is applied to the amplitude modulator M1. In the latter it is superposed upon energy of auxiliary frequency (m-l-n)f1, so that at the output end the frequency f1 appears.
The auxiliary frequency (m-}-n)f1 is derived from the output by using the device according to the invention. The procedure is as follows: The output frequency f1 is passed to the reactance control element R and frequency modulates generator G having an average or center frequency fo. The generator voltage is passed to the bandpass filters BP; and BP2. Filter BP; allows frequency fo+nf1 and lter BP2 allows the frequency fo-mf1 to pass and suppresses all the other frequencies, including also the carrier frequency fo. Both frequencies reach the amplitude modulator M. The resulting difference frequency (m-I-n) f1 is passed over the band-pass lter BP to the modulator Mi already referred to. The
entire system is a feed-back system capable of Y oscillating; stable conditions occur, however, if the frequency is divided in the ratio 1/m+n+1.
The device according to the invention may also be used for the frequency multiplication of phasemodulated signals. Such an arrangement is shown in Fig. 6. V indicates the frequency multiplier which has already been described, with the difference that the frequency fi of the input signal applied to the reactance control R is already phase-modulated. The average or center frequency is fg and is produced by generator G1. By means of phase modulator PM frequency fg is phase-modulated by the signal S which is to be transmitted; f1 is then the phase-modulated frequency applied to the input end of the frequency multiplying device. The multiplication produces an average frequency (m4-n) fg multiplied by the factor (1n-HL), while at the same time the frequency deviation or variation limits are multiplied by the same factor.
After having explained the principle on which the device according to the invention operates, a few examples of more detailed diagrams of connections required for the individual basic arrangements are given. Figs. 7, 8, 9 show detailed diagrams corresponding, respectively, to the basic arrangements illustrated in Figs. 1, 2 and 4. Corresponding diagrams for the arrangements of Figs. 3, 5 and 6 may be obtained by an analogous combination of the elements R, G, BP, M and TP. The reactance control element R shown is of the known type comprising a multi-grid electron tube. A condenser is connected between the anode and the control grid. The input voltage with a frequency f1 shifts the control grid voltage, whereby corresponding frequency alterations occur in the tube generator G in a manner well known to those skilled in the art. The subsequent band-pass lters BP, BPi as well as the lowpass filter TP are wave filters constructed in a known manner. Modulator M is of the type comprising two diodes which produce the de modulated voltage across a condenser-resistance load circuit. In Fig. 9, a frequency multiplier is shown. This contains a very powerful amplifier tube with non-linear characteristic and an anode circuit tuned to a harmonic of the frequency fr.
