Open the CIPO recordAbstract From the Canadian patent
A damping circuit is described for the antenna resonance circuit (28) of a radio transmitter-receiver (10) which in a transmitting phase transmits a time-limited high-energy interrogation pulse and in a receiving phase following the transmitting phase is ready to receive high-frequency response signals coming from a responder (26) which transmits said response signals as reaction to the reception of the interrogation pulse. In the damping circuit (24) a damping member (R4, R5, R6) is provided which is adapted to be connected to the antenna resonance circuit and disconnected therefrom. A switching means (T4, T5) on receiving a switching voltage applies the damping member (R4 R5, R6) to the, …

Why it's free to use
- Filed March 21, 1990 and granted July 20, 1999. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended March 21, 2010.
- A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by March 21, 2012.
- We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
