Abstract

Radio frequency disturbance recognition circuits having their inputs tuned to different frequency bands by resonant circuits are coupled to the antenna input of a receiver to be protected through a decoupling stage that prevents excessive coupling and AND-gates are provided so that an interference blanking circuit will be operated to produce a momentary interruption of the low-frequency signal path only when a disturbance is detected by the radio frequency recognition circuits in both of their respective operating frequency ranges and at the same time a pulse disturbance is detected in the output of the receiver demodulator by a disturbance voltage detector circuit tuned to a frequency band higher than the frequency band of the low-frequency signal to be protected.
