TLDR
In this article, the effect of the noise interference with the speech transmission is reduced by eliminating the high peaks of noise of very short duration and depending upon the persistence of sensation of speech in the ear to bridge the gaps.
Abstract
IN TRANSMITTING speech over radiotelephone circuits there are a number of conventional methods of increasing the signal with respect to the noise. Examples of such methods are the use of higher power, directive antennas, diversity reception, and filters to narrow the received frequency band. In addition, there are other methods of a special character which reduce the effect of the noise interference with the speech transmission. One example of such a device limits the noise interference by eliminating the high peaks of noise of very short duration and depending upon the persistence of sensation of speech in the ear to bridge the gaps. Another method diminishes the noise in intervals of no speech. This is the method which will be discussed here.

Resonant Lines in Radio Circuits

TL;DR: In this paper, the mathematical relations governing their operation and several applications are discussed, including the use of the lines as circuit elements in the ultra-short wave range as a means of obtaining high impedance with low loss, where the lines may be either concentric tubes or 2 wires, and are sufficiently small that they may be placed within the apparatus.
