Class Information
Number: 455/257
Name: Telecommunications > Receiver or analog modulated signal frequency converter > Local control of receiver operation > Local oscillator frequency control > Automatic
Description: Subject matter wherein the control means consists of a self-acting control circuit or loop whereby the output frequency of the oscillator means or the output of the mixer means is maintained constant at a desired frequency or within a desired frequency range. The control circuit or loop generally includes discriminator means for sensing the deviation of the oscillator output frequency in direction and amount with means for producing a control energy corresponding to the sensed deviation and applying the generated control energy to a controlling means in the oscillator circuit in the proper sense or direction to restore the oscillator output frequency to a desired value.
