Method and system for controlling access to transmitted modulated electromagnetic wave carried information

Claim 1

A system for controlling access to electromagnetic wave communication transmissions, of the type including FM-SCA, which comprises a means for generating and injecting a continuously variable audio frequency control signal into an audio frequency information signal at the transmitter in a fashion such that the resultant modulated transmitted wave is identical to the wave which would result if the audio frequency control signal were originally a part of the audio frequency information signal; and means for tuning a filter in the receiving equipment so that the audio frequency control signal does not effect the processing of the audio frequency information signal by the receiver.

Claim 4

A method of controlling access to FM-SCA electromagnetic wave communication transmissions comprising: generating a variable audio frequency control signal; injecting the variable audio frequency control signal into an audio frequency information signal such that the resulting waveform is identical to that which would result if the audio frequency control signal were originally a part of the audio frequency information signal; transmitting the composit audio control and information signal over an FM-SCA transmission system; providing receiver equipment which contains circuitry for blocking the audio frequency control signal, while passing the audio frequency information signal; periodically changing the audio frequency control signal frequency at the transmitter, and tuning the circuitry in the receiver so that the new audio frequency control signal does not mask the audio frequency information signal.
