6 Claims. (Cl. Z50-27) The present invention relates to means and techniques whereby a relatively long gating voltage is produced in accordance with the intensity modulation on a series of pulses, and Without limiting the scope of the present invention, it is described herein as embodied in remotely controlled radar equipment wherein it is desired to recreate a relay gate for adjusting the electrical center of a cathode ray tube display from one position during development of the elevationv display to a second position during development of the azimuth display in producing a combined azimuth-elevation display at a remote location and for producing related control effects.
Various techniques have been developed for producing combined azimuth and elevation displays at a remote location. The equipment for this purpose is shown, described and claimed in the copending patent application of Landee et al., Serial No. 247,616, led September 21, 1951, the output of which comprises a composite video train of the `character shown therein. This video train, as shown in Figure 1 herein, includes many different components, such as the radar echo video, range marks, cursor pulses for developing electronically the glide path and runway lines on a display, the range marks being modulated in amplitude to develop so-called V-follower lines, and in accordance with important aspects of the present invention, the C and L triggers used in the aforementioned system and bracketing those video components which are made visible in the display, are utilized to produce a socalled relay gate having a time duration which is commensurate with the duration of the azimuth antenna beam scanning period.
The present invention, therefore, contemplates the provision of improved means whereby the relay gate for moving the electrical adjusted center from the point O1 to the point O2 in the composite display shown in the aforementioned patent application, Serial No. 247,616, and for causingrelated control effects, is produced in accordance with the amplitude modulation of the C and L triggers.
`It is therefore one of the objects of the present invention to provide improved means and technique whereby the result indicated in the preceding paragraph may be realized.
While the present invention may be incorporated in equipment for producing the aforementioned specific result, it is evident that the invention in its broader aspects may be used in other installations where generally it is desired to produce a relatively long gating voltage or current in accordance with intelligence on a series of sharp triggers or pulses, and therefore another object of the present invention is p to provide means and technique whereby the invention may be applied to other systems than the one specifically referred to herein.
Y ln general, in the system described herein, the C and L pulses in each composite video train have a relatively large amplitude during the elevation antenna beam scanning period and arrelatively small amplitude during the azimuth antenna' beam scanning period. The relatively Z,72,585 atented Oct. l1, 1955 'ice large C and L triggers are used to develop a negativegoing gating voltage. It is desired that the leading edge of this negative-going gate voltage occur at a definite perdetermined time interval, midway between the end of an azimuth scanning period and the start of the next succeeding elevation scanning period. In other words, such negative-going gate starts prior to reception of the relatively large amplitude C and L triggers. In order to produce this result, the circuit described herein incorporates what may be termed as anticipating means for establishing the leading edge of the negative-going gate prior to reception of the relatively large intensity C and L triggers which cause formation of the remaining and substantially largest portion of such negative-going gate voltage.
It is therefore another object of the present invention to provide an improved gating voltage generating apparatus of this character which incorporates anticipating means of the type alluded to above.
It is noted that the interval between completion of the azimuth display and start of the elevation display is in the order of 30 milliseconds or more, and that the C and L triggers stop immediately at the completion of each display. It is desired that the relay gate, i. e., the aforementioned negative-going gating voltage, start midway in this interval, i. e., at approximately 15 milliseconds after the last train of C and L triggers at the completion of the azimuth display.
Another specific object of the present invention therefore is to provide an improved relay gate forming means of this character which has features described in the preceding paragraph.
The features of the present invention which are believed to be novel are set forth with particularity in the appended claims. This invention itself, both as to its organization and manner of operation, together with further objects and advantages thereof, may be best understood by reference to the following description taken in connection with the accompanying drawings in which:
Figure 1 shows the composite Video train which is applied to the circuit embodying features of the present invention for forming a relay gate of relatively long duration in accordance with the amplitude modulation of the C and L triggers in such train;
Figure 2 shows in block diagram form apparatus embodying features of the present invention for producing the above mentioned results;
Figure 3 is a schematic representation showing in more detailed form some of the circuitry shown in block diagram in Figure 2;
Figure 4 shows a series of triggers and waveforms which are present in different portions of the circuit shown in Figures 2 and 3.
The C and L triggers in the composite video train shown in Figure 1, having amplitudes 12-volts during azimuth antenna beam scanning and 24volts during elevation antenna beam scanning, are used to produce the relatively long relay gate, using the apparatus shown in block form in Figure 2, which apparatus is shown more specifically in Figure 3. For this purpose, the composite video train is applied through coupling condenser 74 to the relay gate forming channel having the input terminal 75 and the output terminal 76.
Briey, the operation of this gate generating channel is as follows. The negative-going gate 77 appearing at the output terminal 76 is produced during the time the elevation antenna beam is scanning, i. e., during the period when the C and L triggers have their maximum amplitudes of 24-volts. During the time the azimuth antenna is scanning, these C and L triggers have an amplitude of 12-volts, It is desired that both the leading and trailing edges of the negative-going gate 77 be accurately spaced in relationship to the azimuth and elevation antenna beam scanning periods, and for that purpose, special compensatory arrangements described in detail hereinafter are provided. In general, the negative-going gate 77 is produced by integrating effectively the series of C and L triggers occurring during the elevation scanning period. However, since some time is required in the step detector or integrating networks described hereinafter, the leading edge of the negativegoing gate is necessarily delayed a period too long for operation of the system as intended. To counteract such undesirable delay, the leading edge of the negative-going gate otherwise delayed is advanced by control voltages developed during the preceding azimuth beam angle scanning period.
More specifically, the composite video train is applied to the input resistance 78, which has an adjustable tap connected to the input terminal of the amplifier stage 79. It should be noted at the outset that this relay gate forming circuit is amplitude selective in that the same will not respond to triggers or pulses having an amplitude appreciably less than 12-volts. In other words, the much smaller reference and data triggers, as well as the range marks, cursor pulses and video signals, are ineffective to operate this relay gate forming channel. This is true since the elevation blocking oscillator stage 80 and azimuth blocking oscillator stage 81, coupled respectively to the amplifier 79 through condensers 82 and 83, are operated only when the triggers applied thereto have amplitudes in the order of 24 and lZ-volts, respectively.
During the elevation beam scanning period, when the C and L pulses have an amplitude of 24volts, the elevation blocking oscillator stage 80 is operated to produce a sharp pulse in accordance with each one of the C and L triggers. The relationship of these C and L pulses during the elevation scanning period, and the resulting pulses produced at the output of the blocking oscillator 80, is shown in Figure 4 at a and c, respectively. These pulses thus produced in the blocking oscillator 80 are integrated in the step detector circuit 84, the output of which appears as shown at d in Figure 4. The output of the step detector 84 is applied to the gate control stage 85 which, insofar as the elevation channel itself is concerned, is an inverter which inverts and shapes the pulse applied from stage 84. The output of stage 85 is applied to the rst cathode follower stage 86 which, in turn, is coupled to the second cathode follower stage 87 having the output terminal 76. It is noted that a regenerative feedback circuit 88 extends from the output of the cathode follower stage 86 to the gate control stage 85 for purposes mainly of obtaining a fast and unsluggish response, particularly in the transitional period between the end of an azimuth scanning period and the start of the next succeeding elevation scanning period. The output, in the form of a negative gate 77, which corresponds with the negative-going gate without compensation shown in Figure 4 at g is produced.
In order to more fully understand Figure 4, it is observed that the groups of triggers appear in the order indicated at a in Figure 4, and with the time axis thus established, the line or edge 89 defines the leading edge of the negative-going gate, while the full line 91 represents the trailing edge of the same gate. It is desired that the leading edge 89 be shifted forwardly with respect to time to the position indicated by the dotted line or edge 90. In such case, the leading edge 90 occurs in the desired transitional period between the azimuth and elevation scanning periods, In such case, a composite gate indicated at g in Figure 4 corresponds with the desired gate shown at b in Figure 4.
The means whereby such leading edge 89 is shifted forwardly in time to obtain the leading edge indicated at 90 is now described generally, and such compensatory means includes generally the azimuth blocking oscillator stage 81, the step detector 92, the inverter stage 93,
the cathode follower stage 94, differentiating network 95, a portion of the gate control circuit 85, and a connection 96 extending from the cathode follower stage 87 to the input of the blocking oscillator stage 81 for purposes of preventing operation of the azimuth blocking oscillator stage 81 during the time that the negative gate is present in the cathode follower stage 87, i. e., during the elevation scanning period.
The azimuth blocking oscillator stage 81 is coupled through condenser 83 to the amplifier 79, but is rendered ineffective during the elevation scanning period by the negative gate 97 applied over the lead 96 from the cathode follower stage 87. Thus, only during the azimuth scanning period, the azimuth blocking oscillator stage 81 is operated to produce corresponding output pulses shown at e in the Figure 4. These pulses are step detected in detector stage 92 to produce the waveform shown at f in Figure 6. After this Waveform is inverted in inverter and Shaper stage 93, itis applied to the cathode follower stage 94. The output of the cathode follower stage 94 is thus a negative-going gating voltage 98, which of course is developed only during the azimuth scanning period. Such negative-going gate 98, represented also at h in Figure 4, is differentiated in the differentiating network 95 to produce the differentiated output voltage represented at i in Figure 4. This differentiated output voltage is applied to the gate control 85, and as described in greater detail hereinafter, effectively serves to shift forwardly in time the leading edge of the gate 77, which ultimately appears at the output terminal 76 in the manner indicated at g in Figure 4.
For a more detailed description of the relay gate forming channel described in relationship to the block diagram in Figure 2, reference is made to Figure 3. Corresponding tubes in Figures 3 and 2 are denoted by the same numbers.
The negative-going composite video, including the C and L triggers, are developed across the input potentiometer resistance 78, the adjustable tap of which is connected to the control grid of the amplifier tube V-318A. The output voltage appearing on the anode of this tube is coupled, on the one hand, through condenser 82 to the control grid of the trigger tube V-319A of the oscillator stage V-319A, V-319B; and, on the other hand, for purposes described later, through condenser 83 to a similar but azimuth blocking oscillator stage V-323A, V-323B. The adjustable tap on resistance 78 is adjusted so that only the C and L triggers, having a magnitude of 24volts, are effective to tire the blocking oscillator stage V-319A, V-319B. The trigger tube V-319A is, in its quiescent state, normally nonconducting, but a positive C or L trigger applied to such control grid causes the oscillator tube to lire, to thereby produce elevation triggers at its cathode output terminal 101, of the character shown at c in Figure 4. These elevation triggers, which comprise triggers corresponding both to C and L triggers, are applied through condenser 102A to the step detector stage which includes the tube V-320A, a diode. The anode of tube V-320A is connected to the condenser 102, while the cathode is connected to the ungrounded terminal of the condenser 103, having a capacity in the order of 10,000 paf. The cathode of tube V-320A is likewise returned to the negative ungrounded terminal of voltage source 104 through resistance 105. Resistance 106 is connected between the anode of tube V-320A and the negative terminal of source 104. The resistance 105 may have a value of l megohm, and the resistance 106 may be 100,000 ohms. The voltage thus developed on condenser 103 is of the form shown at d in Figure 4, and such voltage is applied through resistance 107 to the control grid of tube V-321A in the gate control stage 85.
It is observed, at this time, that the tube V-321A and tube V-321B have their anodes and cathodes connected respectively, and that both of such tubes are used t0 couple voltages to the cathode follower tube V-322A,
the control grid of tube V-321A, however, being sensitive only to elevation voltages, while the control grid of tube V-321B is sensitive only to azimuth voltages, for the aforementioned purpose of shifting the leading edge 89 of the negative-going gate 77 forwardly in time to the position indicated at g in Figure 6.
Neglecting for the present any azimuth voltage applied to the control grid of tube V-321B, the amplied elevation voltage developed on condenser 103, after amplification in tube V-321A, is applied to the control grid of cathode follower tube V-322A in inverted form. The cathode of the tube V-322A is coupled through resistance 108 to the control grid of the second cathode follower stage V-322B. In order to increase the quickness of response, a regenerative feedback circuit including resistance 109 extends from the control grid of tube V-322B to the cathode of tube V-321A.
Thus, under the assumption that no azimuth voltage is applied to the control gridof tube V-321B, a negativegoing gate is produced at the output terminal 76 having the form shown at g in Figure 4, such negative-going gating voltage having the leading edge 89 and trailing edge 91.
During this period of time,`when the negative-going gates are developed at output terminal 76, the azimuth blocking oscillator stage including tubes V-323A and V-323B is rendered inoperative by the negative voltage applied from output terminal 76 to the control grid of trigger tube V-323A through resistances 110 and 111. Thus, by this expedient, the azimuth oscillator stage fed with C and L pulses through condenser 83, is rendered operative to fire only during the azimuth beam scanning period.
During the azimuth scanning period, the C and L triggers have a lessened amplitude, namely, are only l2- volts, an amount insufficient to fire the elevation blocking oscillator stage V-319A, V-319B, but sufficient to fire the azimuth blocking oscillator stage V-323A, V-323B. As a result, azimuth triggers or pulses are developed across the cathode load resistance 112 of the form shown at e in Figure 4, and such triggers are applied through condenser 113 to the step detector or accumulating stage 92, which includes the diode tube V,-320B and condenser 114 for purposes of developing a voltage across such condenser 114 of the form shown at f in Figure 6.
For this purpose, the condenser 113 has one of its terminals connected to the anode of tube V-320B, the cathode of such tube being connected to the ungrounded terminal of condenser 114, which may have a magnitude of 10,000 /L/Lf. ResistancellS, having` a magnitude of -l megohm, and resistance 116, having a magnitude of 100,000 ohms, are serially connected between the anode and cathode of tube V-320B. The junction point of resistances 115 and 116 is connected to the negative ungrounded terminal of the voltage source 118. The voltage thus developed on the condenser 114 is applied through resistance 119 to the control grid of the inverting, amplifying and wave-shaping tubes V-324A and V-324B. The voltage thus developed on the cathode of tube V-324B is applied through a differentiating network 95 comprising condenser 121 and resistance 122, to the control grid of tube V-321B through resistance 124. It is noted that the cathodes of tubes V-324A and V-324B are interconnected by resistance 125, and that the cathode of tube V-324A is returned to the negative terminal of source 118 through resistance 126. Condenser 121 may have a magnitude of 0.25 nf. and resistance 122 may have a magnitude of 1 megohm.
This differentiating network 121, 122 is thus effective to differentiate the azimuth output gate represented at h in Figure 4 into the form shown at i in Figure 4. The differentiation is such that a positive voltage appears on the grid of tube V-321B during the transitional period between an azimuth scanning period to the succeeding elevation scanning period. This in eiiect causes the volt- 6 age developed at the output of tubes V-321A, V-321B to be depressed sooner, therefore causing the leading edge of the resulting negative-going gate 89 in Figure 4 at g to be shifted forwardly in time.
It is observed further that a means is provided herein for timing out the relay gate midway between the elevation and azimuth scans. This timing out is determined by the time constant in the step detector circuit comprising tube 84, condenser 103, and resistance 367. These components may be adjusted that the trailing edge of the negative gate 77 may be made to occur at any time between elevation and azimuth scans.
While the particular embodiments of the present nvention have been shown and described, it will be obvious to those skilled in the art that changes and modifications may be made without departing from this invention in its broader aspects and, therefore, the aim in the appended claims is to cover all such changes and modifications as fall within the true spirit and scope of this invention.
