    摘要: An audio speaker system is disclosed providing improved fidelity of performance from overdamped woofer drivers in small sealed enclosures. At least two woofer drivers are employed, and are driven electrically in such a manner that the phase difference in the electrical signals to the two drivers, or sets of drivers if more than two are employed, will be near zero at the lowest bass frequency and will increase to a value up to 180 degrees at the highest bass frequency which is generally taken as the woofer-midrange crossover frequency. This aforementioned phase difference in the electrical signal inputs to two sets of woofers common to one sealed enclosure improves over prior art by providing increased low-bass acoustic output, less acoustic wave interference between the woofers and the midrange drivers, and a smoother input impedance characteristic in the bass frequency region.

    摘要: A modulation system for AM stereo transmission wherein in a combination of amplitude modulation and phase modulation allows a pair of unique audio channel signals to be modulated onto an AM carrier. When a monophonic audio signal is provided, there is no phase modulation present. However, when a first audio signal (e.g., a “right” channel) differs from a second audio signal (e.g., a “left” audio channel), phase modulation occurs simultaneously with amplitude modulation. The modulation system accepts non-matrixed audio signals and produces quadrature modulation compatible with the industry standard C-QUAM system.

    摘要: Crossover networks modified to render audible colorations or frequency/phase emphases observed in some crossover networks of the prior art. Circuit topologies of prior art crossover networks are modified such that an additional pole appears in the transfer functions of one or more low-frequency pass crossover filters. In addition, the characteristic input impedance of one branch of the modified crossover network is reduced, typically to a value of approximately one-half the design characteristic impedance of the unmodified crossover networks.

    摘要: A loudspeaker system includes at least two loudspeaker drivers, together with an electrical crossover network having filter circuits with at least two separate mutually exclusive frequency passbands. The filter circuits comprising the crossover network each possess brick-wall amplitude responses, i.e., passbands with very high band-edge amplitude vs. frequency response slops, on the order of 100 dB/octave in the better embodiments. The high passband band-edge slopes, which are realized by the inclusion of transmission zeros in the separate crossover filter transfer functions, takes together with further appropriate crossover filter transfer function synthesis causes the separate loudspeaker drivers comprising the loudspeaker system to function independently of one another in their contribution to total system acoustic output. It is shown that the loudspeaker system permits an accurate approximation to the ideal delay function in acoustic space, while minimizing acoustic wave interference among drivers operating in adjacent frequency band, and also reducing overall system nonlinear distortion.
