Abstract

A remote alarm system provides a transmitter having an audio frequency signal generator circuit, a modulator circuit forming a current source modulated by the audio frequency signal and a radio frequency oscillator circuit modulated by the current source, and a receiver having a super-regenerative detector, an amplifier connected thereto, a notch filter for selectively filtering the audio frequency signal, an alternating current rectifier for rectifying the audio frequency signal, a delay circuit for delaying activation of an alarm signal until a signal from the rectifier circuit is present for a predetermined amount of time and for determining a period of time for activation of an alarm signal, and an alarm means for generating an alarm signal in response to the output of the delay circuit.
