    摘要: A method of calculating distance-correction data performed by a range-finding device includes: emitting light to a calibration target at a specified distance from a range-finding device and receiving light reflected from the calibration target that has been irradiated with the emitted light, with an optical-transmission member between the range-finding device and the calibration target, to obtain an actual-measured distance from the range-finding device to the calibration target; and calculating distance-correction data using actual-measurement error data between the specified distance and the actual measured distance to the calibration target, the distance-correction data being used to correct a distance from the range-finding device to a target object measured by emitting light to the target object and receiving light reflected from the target object that has been irradiated with the emitted light, with the optical-transmission member between the range-finding device and the target object.

    摘要: Conventional Dolby B-type or C-type noise reduction systems respond sensitively to an A.C. bias signal during recording onto a magnetic tape. As a result, the system might exhibit a large encode error. In order to reduce such encode error, the gain - frequency characteristic control sensitivity of a side chain in the system to the A.C. bias signal to be supplied to a recording head is set at a value smaller than that of the gain - frequency characteristic control sensitivity of the side chain to an encode input signal at an audio frequency. Such a reduction of the encode error is achieved by connecting a bias trap circuit to a gain control amplifier included in the side chain.

    摘要: Either an input signal of a combining network or an output signal of an inverter arranged on a main path is fed to a side path through a mode switch in a switchable signal compressor/signal expander. Since an input terminal of a control amplifier is connected to a variable filter without passing through a signal amplifier, the deviation of the detection characteristic of a rectifier and integrator attributed to D.C. offset voltages of the signal amplifier and the control amplifier can be reduced. On the other hand, a switchable signal compressor/signal expander in another aspect of performance has a reference voltage generator for producing a D.C. reference voltage, and the output D.C. level of the control amplifier is maintained at a level approximate to the D.C. reference voltage. The other ends of first and second capacitors of the rectifier and integrator are also supplied with the D.C. reference voltage, so that the fluctuation of the detection characteristic of the rectifier and integrator ascribable to the fluctuation of the D.C. reference voltage is reduced.

    摘要: A first intermediate frequency amplifier stage which executes the amplitude limiting operation of a double-converting FM tuner employing the integrated circuit technology is constructed in the form of an integrated circuit. An output signal of the first intermediate frequency amplifier stage is put into a square pulse waveform on the basis of the amplitude limiting operation, and therefore has higher harmonic components of high frequencies. When the higher harmonic components are injected into a second mixer circuit in a second frequency converter circuit, various higher harmonic components which have frequencies higher than a second intermediate frequency appear at the output of the second mixer conduit. When the higher harmonic components at the output of the second mixer circuit are injected into an FM demodulator circuit, beat trouble is induced. The second frequency converter circuit is also constructed in the form of an integrated circuit, and filter means to pass the fundamental waves of a first intermediate frequency signal and to reject the higher harmonic frequency components thereof is connected between the output of the first intermediate frequency amlifier stage executing the amplitude limiting operation and the input of the second mixer circuit, whereby the beat trouble can be prevented.

    摘要: An FM detector is constructed of a phase shift network and an analog multiplier. The analog multiplier includes a differential amplifier circuit and a phase detector circuit. The differential amplifier circuit includes differential pair transistors which are driven by FM intermediate frequency signals. A base emitter junction of a diode-connected transistor is connected across a base and an emitter of one of the differential pair transistors. The base of the one transistor and a base of the diode-connected transistor are connected to an emitter of an emitter-follower transistor, and the FM intermediate frequency signal is applied to a base of the emitter-follower transistor. Noise which develops in the base of the differential pair transistor or the base of the diode-connected transistor is reduced by the low output impedance of the emitter-follower transistor, so that the signal-to-noise ratio of the FM detector is improved.
