ABSTRACT:
This invention is directed to a same frequency repeater (SFR) for use in a multiple SFR system in which only one SFR at a given time is allowed to retransmit a received signal thereby preventing simulcast distortion which could occur due to multiple SFR retransmissions. The SFR includes a receiver for receiving a signal carrying information at a given frequency and a transmitter for rebroadcasting the received signal at the given frequency. A mechanism is provided for keying the transmitter upon the reception of a received signal. A detector senses if a predetermined pilot tone is carried by the received signal. A mechanism responsive to the detection of the pilot tone inhibits the keying of the transmitter if the pilot tone is detected before the transmitter is keyed. A tone generator encodes the output signal of the transmitter with the pilot tone. The keying mechanism preferably delays the keying of the transmitter for a time period having a duration inversely proportional to the magnitude of the received signal in response to a mechanism which senses the magnitude of the received signal. The present invention further contemplates a method for the operation of such an SFR.
