Referring to the drawings, specifically FIG.在谈到图纸，特别是体操。 1, a high frequency transmitter 2 produces and supplies two electromagnetic wave signals through suitable coupling means 14 to an antenna 4. 1 ，具有很高的频率发射器2生产和供应两个电磁波信号，通过适当的耦合是指14至天线4 。 The signals are directed by the antenna 4 to the skull 6 of the subject 8 being examined.

Within the tissue of the brain 10, the signals combine, much in the manner of a conventional mixing process technique, with each section of the brain having a different modulating action.在脑组织中的10个，信号相结合，多方式的常规搅拌工艺，每一部分的大脑有不同的调控行动。 The resulting waveform of the two signals has its greatest amplitude when the two signals are in phase and thus reinforcing one another.由此产生的波形的两个信号的最大振幅时，两个信号的相位，从而加强彼此。 When the signals are exactly 180.degree.当信号是完全180.degree 。 out of phase the combination produces a resultant waveform of minimum amplitude.出相结合产生的波形产生的最低幅度。 If the amplitudes of the two signals transmitted to the subject are maintained at identical levels, the resultant interference waveform, absent influences of external radiation, may be expected to assume zero intensity when maximum interference occurs, the number of such points being equal to the difference in frequencies of the incident signals. However, interference by radiation from electrical activity within the brain 10 causes the waveform resulting from interference of the two transmitted signals to vary from the expected result, ie, the interference waveform is modulated by the brain waves.如果振幅的两个信号转交给主题保持在相同的水平，由此产生的干扰波形，缺乏外部辐射的影响，可能会承担零强度最大干扰发生时，这种点，在同等条件下的差异在事件发生的频率信号。然而，干扰辐射电活动的大脑内的10个原因造成的干扰波形的两个传输的信号，以不同的预期结果，即干扰波形调制的脑电波。 It is believed that this is due to the fact that brain waves produce electric charges each of which has a component of electromagnetic radiation associated with it.据认为，这是由于这样一个事实，即脑波产生电费每一个有分量的电磁辐射与它相关。 The electromagnetic radiation produced by the brain waves in turn reacts with the signals transmitted to the brain from the external source.电磁辐射所产生的脑电波又反应的信号传导到大脑从外部来源。
