Abstract

1447814 Quadraphonic decoders; gain control SANSUI ELECTRIC CO Ltd 15 Aug 1974 [20 Aug 1973] 36034/74 Heading H4R In a 2-4 quadraphonic decoder in which the matrix coefficients are automatically varied according to the instantaneous amplitude relationship between the directional components in the two composite input signals, the decoded front and rear channel pairs are fed to respective mixers 48, 49 which only mix the low frequency components (i.e. <500 Hz) without significantly affecting the high frequency components. For low frequencies front mixer outputs correspond to sum of composite input signals and rear difference. The provision mixers is tantamount fixing coefficients f =b=0 l =r= 1 in decoder Specification 1,434,471. (Fig. 1). In Fig. 4, at capacitive impedances are mixing occurs via R12, R13 whereas higher path C12 provides an attenuating pass filter. level reduced by 6 dB produce a flat response R12 combination with output impedance decoder. circuit admits integration may alternatively be composed integrated differential amplifiers. Variable gain amplifiers performing function above consist gate-controlled FET (Q2, 2, not shown) shunting emitter current source (60) so that zero but RC limited.
