Abstract

See full text

A noise component is extracted either from FM-detected output or from the so-called signal meter in the intermediate frequency amplifier. The noise component is amplified and rectified to provide a d-c signal indicative of the noise level. The rectified noise is then shaped to produce a control signal having a predetermined level and a width. The control signal is supplied to the gate circuit to control the opening and closing of the gate through which the FM detected output passes. The gate is closed during a period when the pulse noise is superimposed on the FM detected output, and is opened during a period when the pulse noise is not superimposed to the FM detected output. In the mean time, the rectified d-c signal is smoothed out to be used as a control signal for controlling the stereo separation, the attenuation of high frequency component of the MPX-demodulated audio outputs, and the overall signal level of the audio outputs.
