SUPPRESSED CARRIER MODULATOR Filed Feb. 24, 1956 22 CAR RIER SOURCE Fl LTER MODULATION SOURCE INVENTOR HAR RY T. MORTI M ER ATTORNEYS:
United States Patent SUPPRESSED CARRIER MODULATOR Harry T. Mortimer, Los Angeles, Calif.
Application February 24, 1956, Serial No. 567,694
9 Claims. (Cl. 33251) (Granted under Title 35, U. S. Code (1952), sec. 266) The invention described herein may be manufactured and used by or for the Government of the United States of America for governmental purposes without the payment of any royalties thereon or therefor.
The invention relates in general to magnetic modulation means and in particular to a modulation means for suppressed carrier operation.
Suppressed carrier operation, with which this invention is primarily concerned, is commonly employed where it is desirable to avoid unauthorized monitoring of the communication system. This type of operation involves the elimination of the carrier frequency from the transmitter output when a zero modulation voltage is applied to the carrier. Generally the carrier suppression is accomplished by complex electronic circuitry. ample, as shown in the patent to Duncan No. 1,560,505, is'suedNovember 3, 1925, a multi-phase source of carrier frequency oscillations arranged for in-phase or outof-phase modulation whereby signaling energy is impressed on the antenna only when the modulation is in-phase might be employed. It will be seen that a simplified suppressed carrier modulation system would be highly desirable. Accordingly:
It is an object of this invention to provide a simple magnetic modulation means which permits suppressed carrier operation.
It is still another object of this invention to utilize a non-linear characteristic of grain oriented rolled steel in the modulation of a carrier frequency.
It is still another object of this invention to provide a fast acting means for intermittently mixing two frequencies to produce a sinusoidal product frequency.
Other objects of this invention will become apparent upon a more comprehensive understanding of the invention for which reference is had to the attached specification and drawings.
In the drawings:
Fig. 1 depicts one embodiment of this invention.
Fig. 2 is a graphical showing of the permeability characteristic of grain oriented material.
Fig. 3a and Fig. 3b are graphical showings of the hysteresis curves for a grain oriented material in the direction of grain orientation and in the direction perpendicular to the grain orientation, respectively.
Briefly, the invention comprises a unique inductive field interaction between two coils which are wound in crosswise manner on a metallic form. One of the coils is energized at the carrier frequency and the other is energized at the modulation frequency. In a preferred embodiment the output is taken through a high pass filter connected in parallel with the coil being energized at the modulation frequency. By winding the two coils on a grain oriented material and introducing an additional magneticfield the non-linear hysteresis characteristic ofthe grain oriented material is utilized as the essential non-linear characteristic in the frequency mixing process to produce a modulated output. In the invention For ex- 2 ,782,376 Patented Feb. 19, 1957 ice both coils must be energized for inductive interaction. In the preferred embodiment, there is no output when modulation ceasesin typical suppressed carrier fashion.
Referring now to the drawings:
Fig. 1 depicts a structural arrangement of one embodiment of the invention wherein coil 10 and coil 20 are wound on metallic form 30 such that the axis of the coils are in orthogonally disposed relation.
A low frequency source 11 capable of producing, for example, a 2 kc. modulation signal is connected across the two terminals, 12 and 13, of the coil 10. A high frequency source 21 capable of producing, for example, a 60 kc. carrier frequency is connected across the two terminals, 22 and 23, of the coil 20. The output circuit comprises a filter 40 whose input terminals, 41 and 42, are connected across terminals 12 and 13, and whose output terminals, 43 and 44, are connected across the output load 56. As will be seen, filter 40 is provided merely to isolate the modulation source 11 from the output. Thus the only critical requirement of this filter in the embodiment of Fig. l is that it be capable of passing a band of frequencies in the region of the carrier frequency.
An additional magnetic field producing means 60 is disposed in parallel relation to the axis of the coil 20 to permit interaction between the field produced by the energized coil 20 and that produced by the energized means 6ft. As depicted in the drawings, means 60 may be a bar magnet, or alternatively, an electromagnetic means might be employed.
As is well known, the modulation of one frequency with another is a product sinusoidal function which requires a processing of the two sinusoidal waves through a non-linear medium. For example, in a balanced modu later the non-linear gm characteristic of the tubes is utilized in the processing of the sinusoidal waves by critically biasing the tubes in the non-linear region of the gm curve.
In the device of this invention the non-linear characteristic required in the processing of the sinusoidal waves is provided by saturably biasing grain oriented material in one direction.
In more detailed explanation, a grain oriented material is employed as the metallic form 30 on which the coils 10 and 20 are cross-wound. The grain oriented material utilized in this invention is normally produced by a cold rolling procedure on silicon iron, generally with a silicon content up to 3.5%. This manufacturing procedure provides a magnetically anisotropic sheet in which the crystalline structure seems to take up a preferred orientation and the finished sheet has directional magnetic properties similar to those for a single crystal. As indicated in Fig. 2, the direction of highest permeability is in the rolling direction. Likewise, as seen in Figs. 3a and 3b, the lowest hysteresis loss is also in the rolling direction. Such materials are commercially known as Hypersil, Trancor 3x, etc.
in accordance with the invention, the coils l0 and 20 are so disposed on the metallic form 30 that the magnetomotive force of coil 10 is in the direction of grain orientation and the magnetomotive force of coil 20 is in a direction perpendicular thereto. In addition, a unidirectional source 60 is disposed to produce a magnetomotivc force in the same plane as that of the coil 29.
This additional magnetomotive force has the effect of partially saturating the magnetically anisotropic sheet in the direction perpendicular to the direction of grain orientation.
In simplified analysis, the anisotropy of the frame material affords a mutual coupling between the two coils when both the carrier signal and the modulation signal are present and the extent of this coupling is a function of the non-linearity of the hysteresis loop of the magnetically anisotropic material. With the addition of the magnetomotive force of source 60 the material is partially saturated in one direction causing the carrier to operate in a non-symmetrical manner about the hysteresis loop. The resultant etfect is then the desired mixing of the carrier frequency and the modulation to produce a modulated output.
Since the two coils, 10 and 20, are in orthogonal arrangement in this invention it will be seen that in the absence of either the carrier or the modulation frequency, no inductive coupling between the coils 1t) and 20 is possible. As previously mentioned the output is taken across the coil 10 in the embodiment shown. Thus, in the absence of the modulation signal, the carrier signal will not reach the input of filter circuit 60 and there will be no carrier signal output.
The invention described herein provides a new and simplified carrier suppressed modulation system which does not employ vacuum tubes or complex circuitry and thus overcomes many of the inherent disadvantages of prior known systems.
It is understood, of course, that the invention which has been exemplarily described herein, may be readily employed in other modulation systems wherein suppressed carrier operation is not required by taking the output across the terminals 22, 23 of coil 20. Finally, it is understood that the invention is to be limited only by the scope of the appended claims.
