Abstract: The present invention uses an electromagnetic device for amplifying an input signal without the use of amplifiers, power supplies, and inverter/converter circuits. The present invention routes an input signal through an electromagnetic device for amplification of the input signal for later use by various loads.

Abstract: A magnetic amplifier switch is connected to a transmitter and antenna of a LF transmitting system. The transmitter is operable to produce a signal which is modulated to first and second frequencies, for example "mark" and "space" frequencies, at different times. The magnetic switch is connected with inductors which are also connected with the transmitter and antenna. Opening and closing of the magnetic amplifier switch changes the inductance of the antenna such that the antenna is automatically tuned to resonance at the one or the other of the modulated frequencies being transmitted at a given time.

Abstract: A single Josephson junction device is arranged in a single branch which comprises an external source resistor connected in series with an output resistor and a Josephson junction device. An input node and an input resistor are in series and connected to the node between the output resistor and the Josephson junction device. Voltage signals applied to the input voltage node are amplified by connecting a high gain voltage output in parallel with the output resistor and providing sensing means for sensing the voltage output across the output resistor only when the Josephson junction device is switching from its low impedance state to its high impedance state.

Abstract: In accordance with the Hall effect, a magnetic field applied perpendicular to the direction of current flow through a conductor causes an electric field perpendicular to both the direction of the current flow and the direction of the magnetic field established in the conductor. This effect has been used to produce magnetic field and current detectors, modulators and frequency doublers. In accordance with the present disclosure a portion of the magnetic field is reversed to produce squaring of or obtaining the square root of the amplitude of the voltage used to produce the conductor current.
