61 Device for pulse modulation automatic control US259928 1981-05-04 US4698637A 1987-10-06 Giuseppe Bertocchi
A device for pulse modulation automatic control, where the modulation is a combined plurality of pulse components. Each pulse component is singly controlled by a respective control voltage or current, the control voltages and/or currents being fully independent from the output demodulated pulse level and from the number, per time unit, of pulses.
62 Amplitude modulation apparatus and method US621181 1984-06-15 US4617536A 1986-10-14 Gordon L. Richard
An apparatus and a method modulate a carrier signal so that the resultant modulated signal varies between a value substantially equal to the quiescent level of the carrier signal and peak values up to several hundred percent of the quiescent level of the carrier signal. The apparatus includes an electrical circuit for adjusting the modulating signal so that it is clamped at a reference value to prevent overmodulation. The clamped signal controls a variable resistance mechanism which forms a part of the gain determining portion of a modulator circuit including an amplifier. The amplifier modulates the carrier signal in accordance with the gain determined by the variable resistance. The variable resistance is controlled by the clamped signal so that it causes the gain of the amplifier circuit to vary between approximately one and a value greater than one. So that the apparatus can be used by a person having a hearing impediment wherein the dynamic range detectable by the user is less than the dynamic range detectable by a normal ear, the apparatus also includes a circuit which compresses a detected acoustical signal which is within a first dynamic range into an electrical modulating signal within a dynamic range which is smaller than the first dynamic range and which is within the dynamic range perceivable by the user of the apparatus.
63 AM pulse duration modulator US625694 1984-06-28 US4605910A 1986-08-12 Dennis H. Covill
The present invention relates to a circuit for producing a switching modulating signal for switching a pulse duration modulator, so that the pulse duration modulator produces an output signal which is independent of the supply voltage. The circuit is comprised of an amplifier having at least one input port and an output port. The input port is connected to a modulating signal via a first resistor. A multiplier is provided which has first and second input ports and an output port. The first port of the multiplier is connected to the supply voltage, the second input port is connected to the output port of the amplifier, and the output port of the multiplier is connected via a second resistor to at least one input port of the amplifier. The switching modulating signal appears at the output port of the amplifier. This switching modulating signal, when used to switch a pulse duration modulator, provides a signal at the output of the modulator which is independent of the supply voltage.

Audio processing equipment for introducing additional asymmetry so as to provide increased fullness of modulation of associated transmitters. Audio waveshapes are altered so as to accentuate the positive going portions of the waveshape. The alteration of the waveshape is typically such that the waveshape will produce positive going modulation of approximately 125% when the negative going modulation is approximately 100%.

66 Polarity correcting circuit US954927 1978-10-26 US4228368A 1980-10-14 Robert A. Orban
A circuit for controlling the polarity of an asymmetrical waveform, such as a typical audio waveform, is described. The circuit provides smooth polarity switching with substantially no audible switching sound. The smooth switching results from switching each frequency of the audio signal at a different time. The circuit is particularly useful in a peak-limiting apparatus such as those often used in AM broadcasting.
67 Modulated carrier frequency sources US3737809D 1971-09-08 US3737809A 1973-06-05 PARKYN J
An amplitude modulated carrier frequency source has a first modulator and a first differential amplifier in a feedback loop of the first modulator, and a second modulator and a second differential amplifier in a feedback loop of the second modulator. A high level carrier frequency is applied to the second modulator and a further input of the second differential amplifier is derived from the modulating frequency. Another carrier frequency is applied to the first modulator whose associated differential amplifier has, as a further input, stabilizing output from the second modulator. A reference is thus achieved for modulation and carrier level that is a modulated carrier.
68 Automatic control for amplitude-modulated signal source US3662290D 1970-08-05 US3662290A 1972-05-09 ELLIOTT WILLIAM S
An automatic level control maintains an accurate output level measurement under conditions of high modulation index by developing a control signal proportional to the deviation of output level from a desired norm. Output level is determined as a function of the time that the modulation envelope thereof exceeds a predetermined threshold. The control is independent of distortions in recovered modulation envelope waveform introduced by conventional envelope detectors due to diode offset voltage and/or high modulation index and permits independent application of carrier level and modulation index controls.
