This: invention relates to radio'frequency circuits: and more particularly to trigger circuits to be-controll'edby received radio frequency pulses.
For the purpose of economy in power and for preservation of, a modicum of 'secrecy, transmission of energy by time modulated impulses is often resorted to.

detector l6 for deriving the amplitude modulated signal.
It will be recognized that the receiver circuit of Fig. 1 performs substantially the same function as the prior art system outlined above. The circuit according to my invention, however, does not require the detecting circuit for the 'pulses prior to application thereof to the trigger circuit. Likewise, the input limiter is unnecessary in this circuit in accordance with my invention as will be more clearly brought out in the specific description of the shaping circuit.
The trigger circuit which constitutes thejprincipal feature of my invention will now be described with reference to Figs. 2 and 3. The radio frequency impulses in the output of amplifier II will be in the form shown in curve A of Fig. 2.
The two pulses 20 and 2| which define one pair of time-modulated: impulses are each composed of a high frequency carrier wave as shown. Although only a relatively small number of oscillations are shown in the figure, the actual number of oscillations in each pulse may be fairly high. For example, if the entire pulse duration Y r is two microseconds and an intermediate frequency of 50 megacycles is used, there will be 100 oscillations during one pulse. With higher frequencies there will be a correspondingly larger number of oscillations per pulse. The pairs of pulses in the received series, 20, 2| and 22, 23 are separated by a relatively fixed period T.
The pulses of this received series are applied preferably to the tuned primary 30 (Fig. 3) of thetuned input circuit 3| of trigger circuit l2. This triggercircuit comprises a vacuum tube device 7 32 operating as a multivibrator or trigger circuit.
A common envelope with two sets of electrodes is shown but it should be understood that separate vacuum tubes may be used if desired in- This multivibrator circuit has two setsof electrodes, cathode 40, grid 4| and anode 42, and cathode 50, grid 5| and anode 52. The cathodes 40 and 50 are interconnected and coupled to ground through an adjustable resistor device 35. This adjustable resistor serves as a common'resistance in the anode-cathode circuit'of both sets-of electrodes and provides the feedback necessary for operation of the arrangement as a multi-vibrator. In the absence of a signal, grid 5| is maintained negative by means of a bias source-53 so that the corresponding set of electrodes is normally noneconductive. The energy flowing through the first section of this tube and through resistance 35 maintains 'grid 4| slightly negative in the normal condition. Grid 5| also tends to become more negative adding to the negative bias. Upon application of a predetermined negative voltage to grid 4| the electrode system 40, 4| and 42 provides an amplification of this voltage. This operation then swingsgrid 5| in a positive direction by reason of the drop through resistance 58 and the charge on condenser 55 overcoming the effect of the negative bias on this grid. Simultaneously, the electrode system 40, 4|, 42 is driven further negatively to cut-off by virtue of the feedback voltage across resistance 35. A0-
' initiating cordingly, an. output signal is initiated in the V multi-vib-rator trigger circuit across resistance 51.. If the negative voltage applied to the grid does not continue the chargeon condenser 55 associated with grid 5| willleak ofi through resistance 56. As soon as this charge .has been reduced so that this section of thetube is again 7 cutoff by the bias, currentceases between elecsufficient potential to initiate operation of tube electrodes 40, 4| and 42. This developed potential is applied to the input over resistance 59 and coupling condensers 68, 6|. A decoupling resistance 52 of high value is arranged connected between tuned circuit 3| and ground. Normally, it will take a number of applied oscillations to cause this operation but this number will be relatively small compared to the .total numberin the pulse. Each negative swing of a received wave train pulse adds to the effect tending to make grid 4| negative. After operation of the trigger circuit, however, the initiated output pulse will last for a period of time determined by the circuit time constants and independent of the length of the applied impulses, 20, 2|, 22, etc. Accordingly, the output current from trig ger circuit !2 may be indicated by curve B of Fig. 2. It Will'be noted that the pulses 20A, ZIA, 22A and 23A are all initiated at substantially the same time with respect to the corresponding pulses 20, 2|, 22 and 23 and that they are all of equal dura tion, slightly greater than the duration of the pulses. Likewise, the amplitude of these output pulses is independent of the input amplitude since it is controlled entirely by the constants of the trigger circuit and the voltages 7 to a constant level before application to the trigger circuit. Furthermore, it is not necessary to firstdetectthe radio frequency pulses to envelope frequency before application to the multi-vibrator circuit since the multi-vibrator itself performs thefunction of detecting the signals and is triggered by them for the final signal reproduction.
The trigger circuit of Fig.3 has been described as an element of the receiver system of Fig. 1. It may,'however, be used in other connections. By adding a tuned circuit, Fig. 4, tothe output line as indicated at line 4-4 the circuit mayoperate as a frequency changer to convert the received radio frequency pulses to damped wavetrain pulses of a different radio frequency with-,- out disturbing their time spacing. By selecting the values of inductance 10 and-condenser 'H- to any frequency which is a harmonic of the pulses produced in the output of the multi-vibratorim-v pulses of thisharmonic frequency having an amplitude and duration determinedby thejoutput impulsesof the trig er circuit may be produced. These waves may; then be passed to any translating apparatus ,12 for further operation as desired.,
Generally, the direct current impulses in the output of the trigger circuit will not contain frequency components higher than the initiating ra-' when the constants of and H are properly chosen the trigger circuit may be used to produce reshaped output at the same radio frequency as the initiating pulses if desired.
It is clear that many other known forms of trigger circuits may be used in place of the particular circuit shown in Fig. 3. For example, any type of multi-vibrator circuit may be used so long as it is properly biased and is provided with a suitable tuned input circuit to develop the necessary operating voltage directly from the radio frequency impulses. It is further clear that an amplifier such as shown at I I is only necessary in order that the amplitude of the received impulses be increased. Even if no amplifier is provided, the trigger circuit will operate providing the received pulses are of sufiiciently great amplitude themselves.
While the trigger circuit of my invention is particularly useful in receivers for time modulated impulse systems or for converting the received radio frequency, it is clear that the rinciples of my invention are not limited to this particular combination. The trigger circuit may be useful in obstacle detection systems for reshaping the refiected impulses prior to applying them to the control electrodes of an indicator. Furthermore, in accordance with my invention, the trigger circuit disclosed may be used in any case where it is desired to produce direct current pulses corresponding in space to alternating current impulses but independent of these pulses in amplitude and duration.
Many modifications of my invention will occur to those skilled in the art and the particular examples described are not to be considered as limitations on the scope of my invention but merely as an illustration thereof.
