  • Abstract
    The carrier system described was developed by the Western Union Telegraph Company for use with microwave radio relay circuits. Thirty-two voice-band communication channels, each 3,000 cycles wide, are derived in the frequency range 4 to 147 kc. Tandem stages of group modulators maintain a high degree of spectrum efficiency and eliminate the necessity for crystal filters. A crystal-controlled harmonic carrier supply insures the frequency stability required by narrow-band frequency-modulation telegraph circuits.
