Description

La présente invention concerne les émetteurs radioélectriques portables ou portatifs et plus particulièrement les radiotéléphones.The present invention relates to portable or portable radio transmitters and more particularly to radiotelephones.

La portée de ces radiotéléphones est limitée notamment par la puissance qu'ils peuvent rayonner. C'est pourquoi il a été envisagé de donner à cette puissance des valeurs relativement élevées. Ces valeurs sont telles qu'un effet physiologique éventuellement dommageable pourrait être provoqué dans le corps d'un utilisateur qui absorberait une fraction importante d'un rayonnement radiofréquence ayant une telle puissance. Diverses dispositions ont été proposées pour limiter cette fraction afin de protéger l'utilisateur.The range of these radiotelephones is limited in particular by the power that they can radiate. This is why it has been envisaged to give this power relatively high values. These values are such that a potentially harmful physiological effect could be caused in the body of a user who would absorb a large fraction of radiofrequency radiation having such a power. Various provisions have been proposed to limit this fraction in order to protect the user.

Such an increase increases the total height of the device and / or complicates its mechanical structure.

La présente invention a notamment les buts suivants:

  • permettre de conférer une grande portée à un émetteur portable de structure mécanique simple et d'encombrement limité, notamment à un radiotéléphone, cette invention pouvant trouver cependant application quelle que soit la puissance de l'émetteur considéré,
  • et/ou éviter que le rayonnement radio-fréquence émis par un tel émetteur puisse avoir un effet physiologique sur un utilisateur utilisant cet émetteur de manière prolongée.
The present invention has in particular the following aims:
  • allow a long range to be imparted to a portable transmitter of simple mechanical structure and of limited size, in particular to a radiotelephone, this invention being able however to find application whatever the power of the transmitter considered,
  • and / or prevent the radio frequency radiation emitted by such a transmitter from having a physiological effect on a user using this transmitter for a prolonged period.

Dans ces buts elle a pour objet un émetteur radio portable comportant:

  • un système rayonnant pour émettre un rayonnement,
  • et des moyens de protection pour protéger une partie du corps d'un utilisateur de cet émetteur contre le rayonnement de ce système,

cet émetteur étant caractérisé par le fait que ces moyens de protection comportent un écran absorbant disposé de manière à être interposé entre au moins une zone à forte émission de ce système rayonnant et ladite partie du corps à protéger lorsque l'émetteur est dans une position de service relative à l'utilisateur, cet écran comportant une structure absorbante pour convertir en chaleur une partie de l'énergie dudit rayonnement.For these purposes it relates to a portable radio transmitter comprising:
  • a radiating system for emitting radiation,
  • and protection means to protect a part of the body of a user of this transmitter against radiation from this system,

this transmitter being characterized by the fact that these protection means comprise an absorbent screen arranged so as to be interposed between at least one zone with high emission of this radiating system and said part of the body to be protected when the transmitter is in a position of service relating to the user, this screen comprising an absorbent structure for converting part of the energy of said radiation into heat.

A l'aide de la figure schématique ci-jointe, on va décrire ci-après comment la présente invention peut être mise en oeuvre, étant entendu que les éléments et dispositions mentionnés et représentés ne le sont qu'à titre d'exemple non limitatif.Using the attached schematic figure, we will describe below how the present invention can be implemented, it being understood that the elements and arrangements mentioned and represented are only by way of nonlimiting example .

Cette figure représente une vue à la fois d'un radiotéléphone réalisé selon cette invention et d'un utilisateur de ce radiotéléphone.This figure represents a view of both a radiotelephone produced according to this invention and of a user of this radiotelephone.

Sur cette figure ce radiotéléphone est représenté en 4 dans une position typique de service par rapport à l'utilisateur 2.In this figure, this radiotelephone is shown at 4 in a typical service position relative to user 2.

En se référant à cette figure à titre d'exemple on va décrire d'abord de manière générale un émetteur selon cette invention.Referring to this figure by way of example, a general description will first be given of a transmitter according to this invention.

L'émetteur 4 comporte de manière classique les éléments suivants:

  • Un générateur 10 créant une oscillation électrique à une fréquence d'émission située dans le domaine des radiofréquences. La puissance moyenne d'un tel générateur est actuellement typiquement voisine de 0,5 W. Mais la présente invention permet d'envisager une puisance beaucoup plus élevée, par exemple 20 Watts.
  • Un système de modulation 12, 14 commandant ce générateur. Ce système est disposé de manière à pouvoir être commandé par l'utilisateur 2. Il module l'oscillation par un signal porteur d'information.
  • Enfin un système rayonnant 16 recevant l'oscillation électrique et émettant en réponse un rayonnement 20 portant l'information. La fonction de ce système rayonnant est de convertir l'oscillation électrique en rayonnement avec un rendement énergétique de conversion aussi grand que possible. C'est pourquoi sa surface est réalisée de manière à être électriquement bonne conductrice c'est-à-dire qu'en pratique elle est typiquement constituée d'un métal bon conducteur. Elle est parcourue par des courants présentant des densités, exprimables en ampères par centimètre, et des orientations diverses, de sorte que la densité de puissance exprimable en Watts par centimètre carré du rayonnement émis à partir d'une zone de cette surface varie selon la zone considérée. En fait le rayonnement est surtout émis à partir d'une ou plusieurs zones qui seront appelées ci-après "zones à forte émission". Une telle zone est représentée en 40.
The transmitter 4 conventionally comprises the following elements:
  • A generator 10 creating an electric oscillation at an emission frequency located in the radio frequency domain. The average power of such a generator is currently typically around 0.5 W. However, the present invention makes it possible to envisage a much higher power, for example 20 Watts.
  • A modulation system 12, 14 controlling this generator. This system is arranged so that it can be controlled by the user 2. It modulates the oscillation by an information-carrying signal.
  • Finally a radiating system 16 receiving the electric oscillation and emitting in response a radiation 20 carrying information. The function of this radiating system is to convert the electrical oscillation into radiation with as high a conversion energy efficiency as possible. This is why its surface is made so as to be electrically good conductive, that is to say that in practice it is typically made of a good conductive metal. It is traversed by currents having densities, expressible in amperes per centimeter, and various orientations, so that the power density expressible in Watts per square centimeter of the radiation emitted from an area of this surface varies according to the area considered. In fact the radiation is mainly emitted from one or more zones which will be called hereinafter "high emission zones". Such an area is represented at 40.

Selon la présente invention, cet émetteur comporte en outre un écran 6 présentant une face intérieure 6A et une face extérieure 6B. Lorsque l'émetteur 4 est placé dans sa position de service, la disposition de cet écran est telle qu'il s'interpose entre au moins une zone à forte émission du système rayonnant 16 et la partie du corps à protéger 8 et qu'il présente alors ses faces intérieure et extérieure en regard de cette zone à forte émission et de cette partie du corps, respectivement.According to the present invention, this transmitter further comprises a screen 6 having an inner face 6A and an outer face 6B. When the transmitter 4 is placed in its operating position, the arrangement of this screen is such that it is interposed between at least one high-emission zone of the radiating system 16 and the part of the body to be protected 8 and that it then has its inner and outer faces facing this high emission zone and this part of the body, respectively.

Cet écran comporte une structure absorbante 6C apte à convertir en chaleur une partie majoritaire de l'énergie d'un rayonnement électromagnétique qui la traverse et qui présente ladite fréquence d'émission. Cette structure peut comporter un empilage de couches différenciées dont la permittivité électrique ε, la perméabilité magnétique µ et la résistivité électrique ρ sont choisies pour assurer une absorption optimale du rayonnement émis. Une structure de ce genre est connue sous la marque ECCOSORB SF de la firme belge GRACE N.V.This screen comprises an absorbent structure 6C capable of converting into heat a majority of the energy of an electromagnetic radiation which passes through it and which has said emission frequency. This structure can include a stack of differentiated layers whose electrical permittivity ε, magnetic permeability µ and electrical resistivity ρ are chosen to ensure optimal absorption of the emitted radiation. A structure of this kind is known under the brand ECCOSORB SF from the Belgian firm GRACE N.V.

De préférence l'écran 6 comporte en outre une couche électriquement bonne conductrice 6D du côté de sa face extérieure 6B, la structure absorbante 6C étant située du côté de sa face intérieure 6A. La couche 6D est une feuille métallique plane ou incurvée.Preferably, the screen 6 further comprises an electrically good conductive layer 6D on the side of its outer face 6B, the absorbent structure 6C being located on the side of its inner face 6A. Layer 6D is a flat or curved metal sheet.

Cet émetteur comporte en outre un moyen de maintien de distance 18 apte à maintenir une distance de sécurité entre le système rayonnant 16 et le corps de l'utilisateur 2. Ce moyen de maintien de distance est avantageusement constitué par un capot 18. Il maintient non seulement une distance de sécurité telle que 33 entre le système rayonnant 16 et le corps de l'utilisateur lorsque l'émetteur 4 est dans sa position de service mais aussi une distance de sécurité telle que 34 et 35, lorsque, par exemple par inadvertance, cet émetteur 4 est placé hors de sa position de service au contact de ce corps. Il maintient également une telle distance 34 ou 35 entre le système rayonnant 16 et le corps d'autres personnes qui viendraient au contact de l'émetteur ceci, en coopération avec les autres éléments de l'émetteur, de manière omnidirectionnelle. Ces distances de sécurité sont typiquement comprises entre 5 et 10 mm si la puissance moyenne de l'émetteur est voisine de 0,5 watts. Elles semblent de manière plus générale devoir être comprises entre 3 et 100 mm.This transmitter further comprises a distance maintaining means 18 capable of maintaining a safety distance between the radiating system 16 and the body of the user 2. This distance maintaining means is advantageously constituted by a cover 18. It maintains non only a safety distance such as 33 between the radiating system 16 and the body of the user when the transmitter 4 is in its operating position but also a safety distance such as 34 and 35, when, for example inadvertently, this transmitter 4 is placed out of its operating position in contact with this body. It also maintains such a distance 34 or 35 between the radiating system 16 and the body of other people who come into contact with the transmitter this, in cooperation with the other elements of the transmitter, in an omnidirectional manner. These safety distances are typically between 5 and 10 mm if the average power of the transmitter is close to 0.5 watts. They seem more generally to be between 3 and 100 mm.

Comme représenté, lorsque le moyen de maintien de distance est constitué par un capot 18, il entoure le système rayonnant 16 et peut en outre avantageusement contenir l'écran 6. Il présente, vis-à-vis dudit rayonnement, une efficacité d'absorption au moins diminuée par rapport à l'efficacité d'absorption de l'écran 6 et de préférence sensiblement nulle pour ne pas affaiblir inutilement le rayonnement émis lorsque l'émetteur est dans sa position de service.As shown, when the distance maintaining means is constituted by a cover 18, it surrounds the radiating system 16 and can also advantageously contain the screen 6. It has, with respect to said radiation, an absorption efficiency at least reduced compared to the absorption efficiency of the screen 6 and preferably substantially zero so as not to unnecessarily weaken the radiation emitted when the transmitter is in its operating position.

En l'absence d'un écran tel que 6, une protection éventuellement suffisante pourrait dans certains cas être suffisamment être assurée par un tel moyen de maintien de distance.In the absence of a screen such as 6, possibly sufficient protection could in certain cases be sufficiently ensured by such a means of maintaining distance.

Typiquement le système de modulation comporte un tableau de commande 12 pour commander l'émission d'un rayonnement constituant un signal de commutation apte à établir une liaison radioélectrique entre cet émetteur 4 et un correspondant 22 sélectionné par ce signal de commutation. Il comporte aussi un microphone 14 pour moduler un rayonnement 20 constituant un signal de transmission et portant une information à ce correspondant.Typically the modulation system comprises a control panel 12 for controlling the emission of a radiation constituting a switching signal capable of establishing a radio link between this transmitter 4 and a correspondent 22 selected by this switching signal. It also includes a microphone 14 for modulating radiation 20 constituting a transmission signal and carrying information to this correspondent.

Toujours typiquement il est réalisé sous la forme d'un radiotéléphone. Dans ce cas il comporte:

  • Un capteur de rayonnement constitué par le système rayonnant 16 et apte à recevoir une onde de réception radioélectrique 24 émise par le correspondant 22,
  • Un récepteur 26 connecté à ce capteur pour former des signaux de réception à partir de cette onde de réception,
  • Et un haut-parleur 30 pour convertir certains de ces signaux de réception en un signal sonore.
Always typically it is carried out in the form of a radiotelephone. In this case it includes:
  • A radiation sensor constituted by the radiating system 16 and capable of receiving a radio reception wave 24 emitted by the correspondent 22,
  • A receiver 26 connected to this sensor to form reception signals from this reception wave,
  • And a speaker 30 to convert some of these reception signals into a sound signal.

La position de service représentée d'un tel radiotéléphone place le microphone 14 et le haut-parleur 30 à portée de la bouche 32 et d'une oreille 36 de l'utilisateur 2, respectivement. La tête 8 de l'utilisateur constitue alors la partie de son corps à protéger. Une autre position de service peut placer le radiotéléphone dans une poche ou accroché à la ceinture de l'utilisateur.The service position shown of such a radiotelephone places the microphone 14 and the speaker 30 within reach of the mouth 32 and an ear 36 of the user 2, respectively. The user's head 8 then constitutes the part of his body to be protected. Another service position can place the radiotelephone in a pocket or hung on the user's belt.

Typiquement la fréquence d'émission est comprise entre 100 MHz et 100 GHz.Typically the transmission frequency is between 100 MHz and 100 GHz.
