Noise Limiters fo
Receivers
DATE:

50X1
1. In the past, the design of radio receivers has 50X1
largely ignored the problem of elimina ing impulse noise interference
of the type caused by domestic and industrial equipment and automobile
ignition systems. This is an undesirable weakness in equipment which
is frequently required to operate in urban centers and other high
noise areas.
2. It is believed that the addition of a simple series noise
limiter circuit to the audio systems of all future receiver designs
can be accomplished without appreciable increase in size and weight.
It is also recommended that a noise limiter be incorporated in the
RR-11AA, BB receivers now being developed if this is at all feasible.
3. It is pointed out that the commonly used second detector
noise limiter is useless on CW; therefore only audio types should
be considered.
