  2. Regenerative circuit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regenerative_circuit

    Regenerative receivers require fewer components than other types of receiver circuit, such as the TRF and superheterodyne. The circuit's advantage was that it got much more amplification (gain) out of the expensive vacuum tubes , thus reducing the number of tubes required and therefore the cost of a receiver.

  3. Radio receiver design - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio_receiver_design

    Classical regenerative receiver using a single triode vacuum tube. The orientation of the "tickler" coil was carefully adjusted by the operator in order to vary the amount of positive feedback. The regenerative receiver also had its heyday at the time where adding an active element (vacuum tube) was considered costly. In order to increase the ...

  4. Superheterodyne receiver - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superheterodyne_receiver

    A 5-tube superheterodyne receiver manufactured by Toshiba circa 1955 Superheterodyne transistor radio circuit circa 1975. A superheterodyne receiver, often shortened to superhet, is a type of radio receiver that uses frequency mixing to convert a received signal to a fixed intermediate frequency (IF) which can be more conveniently processed than the original carrier frequency.

  5. Direct-conversion receiver - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct-conversion_receiver

    A direct-conversion receiver (DCR), also known as a homodyne, synchrodyne, zero intermediate frequency or zero-IF receiver, is a radio receiver design that demodulates the incoming radio signal using synchronous detection driven by a local oscillator whose frequency is identical to, or very close to the carrier frequency of the intended signal.

  6. Shortwave radio receiver - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shortwave_radio_receiver

    Modern portable shortwave radio receiver with digital frequency display and keypad for direct frequency entry. A shortwave radio receiver is a radio receiver that can receive one or more shortwave bands, between 1.6 and 30 MHz. A shortwave radio receiver often receives other broadcast bands, such as FM radio, Longwave and Mediumwave.

    English: Block diagram of a regenerative radio receiver, a type of radio receiver widely used before World War 2. It consists of a tuned circuit that serves as a bandpass filter to select the desired radio signal out of all the signals picked up by the antenna, and a combined amplifier-detector to increase the power of the signal and extract the audio modulation (sound) signal from from the ...

    The right of alien residence and work permit is protected by the UAE Federal Law No. 6 of 1973 on the Entry and Residence of aliens. [17] Per UAE law, an employer may not deny an employee on a work visa right to annual leave, regularly paid wage, 45 days maternity leave, right to resign, resign gratuity, and a 30 day grace period to find a new job.

    The General Atomics MQ-9 Reaper (sometimes called Predator B) is an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV, one component of an unmanned aircraft system (UAS)) capable of remotely controlled or autonomous flight operations, developed by General Atomics Aeronautical Systems (GA-ASI) primarily for the United States Air Force (USAF).
