ABSTRACT:
A radio frequency communication system utilizing a radiating transmission line for simultaneously communicating audio and video signals is disclosed. The video signals convey video information and the audio signals convey narrow band computer data or audio information. The communication system also provides several separate channels allowing simultaneous audio communication between a plurality of mobile stations. The communication system is intended to be used in environments where radio waves do not propagate well, such as in underground mines. The communication system comprises at least one amplification unit connected to the radiating transmission line for periodically amplifying the audio and video signals. The amplification units have a separate amplifier for amplifying each of the signals and each amplifier is connected to the transmission line in parallel. The amplifiers utilize transistors operating in the linear region. The amplifiers used to amplify the signal which is being radiated by the transmission line has a limiting circuit to attenuate the signal prior to amplification in order maintain the signal within the linear region of the amplifier.
