Why modulation is used suitable for signal transmission distanceetc. The am generator, or exciter, as such a low power source of modulated signal is often called, is now set up. When the modulator has a dc offset, the carrier frequency will remain present in the output sound, along with sidebands at frequencies determined by the sum and the difference of the. M the modulation amplitude and is the peak change in the rf amplitude from its unmodulated value. Set g so that the sinewave peaks just fall to zero.
Modulation index, m, is used to describe the ratio of maximum voltage to minimum voltage in the modulated signal. The instantaneous amplitude overall signal power varies depending on the instantaneous amplitude of the modulating data. The demonstration centers around a number of signals displayed in both the time domain and the frequency domain using a signal generator, an oscilloscope to view the signal. This gives us something to modulate and carry the information pattern from. The combined signal is transmitted over a frequency.

The intensity of the amplitude modulation can be controlled by increasing or reducing the amplitude of the timevarying modulator relative to its dc offset. The depth of modulation, defined below, can be adjusted with the adder gain control g. These two signals are applied as inputs to the summer adder block. Varying these parameters in proportion to the baseband signal results in amplitude modulation am, frequency16 modulation fm. Where, fc carrier frequency a maximum value of unmodulated signal.
Demodulation is defined as extracting the original informationcarrying signal from a modulated carrier wave. Dans ces cas, on utilise une modulation d amplitude a porteuse supprimee. Process by which a property or a parameter of a signal is varied in proportion to a second signal. Here well use the example of a square law fet as illustrated in figure 9.
Amplitude modulation am, variation of the amplitude of a carrier wave commonly a radio wave in accordance with the characteristics of a signal, such as a vocal or musical sound composed of audiofrequency waves. Amplitude modulation can be produced in various ways. This is true even though everything we have discussed assumes that we have used simple sine waves as our input signals. The signal can travel long distances, and appear in faraway places, because of the earths ionosphere. Amplitude modulation introduction amplitude modulation is the simplest and earliest form of transmitters am applications include broadcasting in medium and highfrequency applications, cb radio, and aircraft communications basic amplitude modulation the information signal varies the instantaneous amplitude of the carrier am characteristics am is a nonlinear process sum and. Using the equation above it can be seen that a modulation index of 0. This conforms to the expectation as the maximum and minimum peak of the modulated signal waveform varies proportional to the amplitude of the modulating signal.
Note that it looks like the double sideband modulated signal shown in figure 2 of the lecture notes. Amplitude modulation am schemes double sideband suppressed carrier dsbsc double sideband transmitted carrier dsbwc. A carrier wave is modulated changed by adding audio. Farshad lahouti january 20, 2003 winter 2003 uw, ece 318 lecture notes 2 information source signal modulator propagation channel signal demodulator information destination analog communication system analog signals may be transmitted directly via carrier modulat ion over. We wish to use the carrier wave to carry the message signal, so that the message signal can appropriately be transmitted over a bandpass channel. Plate modulation might well be the most common method of obtaining amplitude modulation. Varying these parameters in proportion to the baseband signal results in amplitude modulation am, frequency16 modulation fm, and phase modulation pm, respectively. Pour inscrire une information sur cette porteuse, on pourra donc. There are no amplitude scales shown, but you should be able to deduce the depth of modulation 1 by inspection. Repeat step iii and step iv, for modulation index of 0, 0. Double sideband amplitude modulation with carrier setup 1a. Notice that the sine wave will move up and down as the dc is varied, its mean value equalling the dc value. For modulation index of 1, zoom around 0 hz to 5 khz to measure frequency of the demodulated message signal.
