The carrier wave and the program audio are converted to analog and the carrier wave is modulated by the program audio. The system includes a master oscillator that generates a digital carrier wave. The digital carrier wave is transmitted to a delay stage that delays the digital carrier wave by a certain delay value. The system further receives an analog or digital signal that is representative of programming. If an analog signal is received, the signal is transmitted to an analog-to-digital converter where it is converted to digital audio. The digital audio is then transmitted to a delay stage that delays the digital audio by the same delay value. The digital carrier wave and the digital audio are converted to an analog carrier wave and analog audio respectively.

Patent number: 6175449Abstract: The invention relates to a device for changing the polarization of an incident electromagnetic wave. Existing devices to change the polarization of an incident electromagnetic wave preserve signal decoupling, i.e., the relation between useful polarization and cross-polarization of the incoming signal. Furthermore, known prior art devices are far too big for many applications. The aim of the inventive device is to improve signal decoupling. During transmission of an electromagnetic wave through the transmission polarizer, the cross-coupled fraction of an incoming signal is greatly reflected thus leading to improved decoupling of the transmitted signal. Furthermore, the transmission polarizer can be manufactured in the form of a single planar printed board. The transmission polarizer is particularly useful to change the polarization of an incident electromagnetic wave, i.e.Type: GrantFiled: October 14, 1999Date of Patent: January 16, 2001Assignee: DaimlerChrysler AGInventors: Wolfgang Menzel, Dietmar Pilz

It is an object of the present invention to provide a high-gain antenna which, even when mounted at a declination of up to 40.degree. from the vertical, maintains the most smoothly curved possible antenna characteristic. This is achieved by winding four serially connected coils (SP1-SP4) on a rod (12) of dielectric material, with the third coil reverse-wound with respect to the second, with a radiating element (13) connected to the free end of the fourth coil, the lengths of the coils and radiating element being selected to be, respectively, 1/4, 1/4, 1/8, 1/8, and 3/8 of the median wavelength. Upon mounting at an angle of 40.degree. to the vertical, this antenna has an optimal antenna characteristic curve.Type: GrantFiled: June 19, 1990Date of Patent: October 29, 1991Assignee: Robert Bosch GmbHInventors: Horst Dorrie, Uwe Militz
