  • Patent number: 10075894
    Abstract: A wireless microphone system includes a microphone and a receiver. The microphone converts sound into audio data, and wirelessly transmits a carrier signal that contains the audio data via a microphone channel. The receiver receives the carrier signal via a receiver channel that matches the microphone channel, and automatically and repeatedly sweeps a plurality of wireless channels. The receiver selects at least one wireless channel that is free of interference to serve as a communication channel, transmits to the microphone a channel switching instruction for causing the microphone to set the communication channel as the microphone channel, and sets the communication channel as the receiver channel.

  • Publication number: 20110081030
    Abstract: A personal transmitter for receiving and wirelessly transmitting an audio signal of a microphone includes a case, and a limiting unit disposed in the case. The limiting unit includes a primary circuit for receiving the audio signal of the microphone and adjusting an amplitude of the audio signal. The primary circuit has a variable resistance unit and a forward amplifier coupled together. The limiting unit includes a feedback circuit coupled to the primary circuit for receiving an output of the primary circuit and for feedback control that reduces a gain of the primary circuit when the amplitude of the audio signal exceeds a predetermined input threshold value. The personal transmitter also includes an amplifying unit disposed in the case and coupled to the limiting unit for receiving and amplifying an output of the limiting unit.
