3. Analog Modulation
– Amplitude Modulation: changes the amplitude.
– Frequency Modulation: changes the frequency.
– Phase Modulation: changes the phase.

Amplitude Modulation
• A carrier signal is modulated only in amplitude
value
• The modulating signal is the envelope of the
carrier
• The required bandwidth is 2B, where B is the
bandwidth of the modulating signal
• Since on both sides of the carrier freq. fc, the
spectrum is identical, we can discard one half,
thus requiring a smaller bandwidth for
transmission.

Amplitude Modulation
• The amplitude of high-carrier signal is varied
according to the instantaneous amplitude of the
modulating message signal m(t).

Amplitude Modulation
• The AM signal is generated using a multiplier.
• All info is carried in the amplitude of the
carrier, AM carrier signal has time-varying
envelope.
• In frequency domain the AM waveform are
the lower-side frequency/band (fc - fm), the
carrier frequency fc, the upper-side
frequency/band (fc + fm).

AM Modulation – Example
• The information signal is usually not a single frequency but a
range of frequencies (band). For example, frequencies from
20Hz to 15KHz. If we use a carrier of 1.4MHz, what will be the
AM spectrum?
• In frequency domain the AM waveform are the lower-side
frequency/band (fc - fm), the carrier frequency fc, the upper-side
frequency/band (fc + fm). Bandwidth: 2x(25K-20)Hz.

Modulation index k is a measure of the extent to
which a carrier voltage is varied by the modulating
signal. When k=0 no modulation, when k=1 100%
modulation, when k>1 over modulation.

Example
• Determine the maximum sideband power if the carrier output
is 1 kW and calculate the total maximum transmitted power.
• Max sideband power occurs when k = 1. At this percentage
modulation each side frequency is ½ of the carrier amplitude.
Since power is proportional to the square of the voltage, each
has ¼ of the carrier power. ¼ x 1kW = 250W Total sideband
power = 2 x 250 = 500W. Total transmitted power = 1kW +
500W = 1.5kW

Demodulation of AM Signals
Demodulation extracting the baseband message from
the carrier.
•There are 2 main methods of AM Demodulation:
• Envelope or non-coherent detection or demodulation.
• Synchronised or coherent demodulation.
17. Envelope/Diode AM Detector
When an AM signal is received, the receiver must
perform a converse process to get the original signal
(Information Signal ) back . This process is known as
detection or demodulation, the simplest process which
is used widely in AM radios is the Envelop Detector .
Envelop Detector is an electronic circuit which is used
to recover ( Demodulate ) the original signal in AM
systems, its constructed from just one diode, one
capacitor and one resistor .
This is essentially just a halfwave rectifier which
charges a capacitor to
a voltage = the peak voltage of the AM signal .

Envelope/Diode AM Detector
If the modulation depth is > 1, the distortion below occurs
K>1
20. Envelope/Diode AM Detector
• The output of the detector follows the envelop of the
modulated signal. On the positive cycles of the input
signal, the diode conducts and the capacitor charges
up to the peak voltage of the input signal. As the input
falls below this peak value, the diode is cut off,
because the capacitor voltage is greater than the input
signal voltage, thus causing the diode to open. The
capacitor now discharges through the resistor at slow
rate. The discharge process continues until the nest
positive half-cycle. When the input signal becomes
greater than the output across the capacitor, the diode
conducts again and the process is repeated.

Synchronous or Coherent
Demodulation
This is relatively more complex and more expensive. The Local
Oscillator (LO) must be synchronised or coherent, i.e. at the same
frequency and in phase with the carrier in the AM input signal.
23. Synchronous or Coherent
Demodulation
If we assume zero path delay between the modulator and
demodulator, then the ideal LO signal is cos(ωct).

Exercises: Draw the Spectrums
a) cos(ωct)cos(ω1t)
from cosAcosB= 1/2[cos(A-B)+cos(A+B)]
we get: cos(ωct)cos(ω1t)=1/2[cos(ωc-ω1)t + cos(ωc+ω1)t]
Hence the spectrum of this is:
b) cos2

from cos2
A=1/2[1+cos2A]
we get: cos2

44. Demerits of AM DSB FC
An unmodulated RF
carrier requires narrow
bandwidth
Modulation results in
creation of a carrier and 2
Sidebands. This
requires more power.
Moreover carrier contains
no information.
45. Why DSB SC?
The carrier contains no information.
So we can think of avoiding or suppressing
46. Why SSB?
The carrier contains no audio information.
The sidebands contains duplicated information
