Abstract
In a system in which an intermediate frequency signal is synchronously detected using an intermediate frequency carrier signal derived from the intermediate frequency signal by means of a tuned circuit and a limiter circuit to remove amplitude variations therefrom, an automatic fine tuning signal is derived in a phase detector to which are fed the intermediate frequency carrier signal after its phase has been shifted 90 degrees in a phase shifter and either the intermediate frequency signal or the intermediate frequency carrier signal. When the intermediate frequency carrier signal is used in the phase detector, a second tuned circuit is used therein and buffering between the two tuned circuits prevents interaction therebetween.
