Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim
125 words
Alignment system for transmitters and receivers in communication systems for visible and infra red frequencies comprising means for impressing a pulsed signal in a transmitter at a first station to produce a square wave; means at a second station for monitoring an incoming signal, through a receiver, whereby said receiver may be adjusted for maximum signal input; means for impressing an incoming signal from said receiver at said second station to an impulse generator to thereby alter its duty cycle; means for looping back the signal from said pulse generator to said first station; and means for monitoring said received signal at said first station, whereby movement of said transmitter at sAid first station may be adjusted for maximum signal received at said second station.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
125 words
Alignment system for transmitters and receivers in communication systems for visible and infra red frequencies comprising means for impressing a pulsed signal in a transmitter at a first station to produce a square wave; means at a second station for monitoring an incoming signal, through a receiver, whereby said receiver may be adjusted for maximum signal input; means for impressing an incoming signal from said receiver at said second station to an impulse generator to thereby alter its duty cycle; means for looping back the signal from said pulse generator to said first station; and means for monitoring said received signal at said first station, whereby movement of said transmitter at sAid first station may be adjusted for maximum signal received at said second station.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
23 words
An alignment system according to claim 1 wherein said means for impressing a pulsed signal at said first station is a digital clock.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
23 words
An alignment system according to claim 1 wherein said means for looping back is a transmitter for the visible and infra red frequencies.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
42 words
An alignment system according to claim 1 wherein said means for looping back is compatible system separate from the communication system, and said means for monitoring a signal from said second station at said first station is compatible with said compatible system.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
38 words
An alignment system according to claim 1 wherein said first and second stations include a transmitter and a receiver for the frequency of the system, and said means for impressing a pulsed signal at each station are similar.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
15 words
An alignment system according to claim 5 wherein said monitoring means is a voltage meter.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
28 words
An alignment system according to claim 5 wherein the adjustment of said transmitter at said first station and said receiver at said second station is a manual adjustment.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
36 words
An alignment instrument according to claim 1 wherein said means for impressing pulsed signals may be switched out of the system, and said impulse generator at said second station may be switched out of the system.
