The document discusses amplitude modulation (AM), which is the simplest and earliest form of modulation. AM involves varying the amplitude of a carrier signal based on the instantaneous amplitude of an information signal. It describes the basic principles of AM, including modulation index and different types of AM such as double sideband suppressed carrier AM and single sideband AM. Advantages of AM include its simplicity of implementation, while disadvantages include inefficiency in power and bandwidth usage and susceptibility to noise.
This presentation will explain about the need for modulation in communication system. We made this presentation as our group assignment in Analog and Digital Communication System course in MIIT.

RF Carrier oscillator
To generate the carrier signal.
Usually a crystal-controlled oscillator is used.
Buffer amplifier
Low gain, high input impedance linear amplifier.
To isolate the oscillator from the high power amplifiers.
Modulator : can use either emitter collector modulation
Intermediate and final power amplifiers (pull-push modulators)
Required with low-level transmitters to maintain symmetry in the AM envelope
Coupling network
Matches output impedance of the final amplifier to the transmission line/antenn
Applications are in low-power, low-capacity systems : wireless intercoms, remote control units, pagers and short-range walkie-talkie
Modulating signal is processed similarly as in low-level transmitter except for the addition of power amplifier
Power amplifier
To provide higher power modulating signal necessary to achieve 100% modulation (carrier power is maximum at the high-level modulation point).
Same circuit as low-level transmitter for carrier oscillator, buffer and driver but with addition of power amplifier
Modulation
In the modulation process, some characteristic of a high-frequency carrier signal (bandpass), is changed according to the instantaneous amplitude of the information (baseband) signal.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

3. What is Modulation
Modulation
In the modulation process, some characteristic of a high-
frequency carrier signal (bandpass), is changed according
to the instantaneous amplitude of the information
(baseband) signal.
Why Modulation is used
Suitable for signal transmission (distance…etc)
Multiple signals transmitted on the same channel
Capacitive or inductive devices require high frequency AC
input (carrier) to operate.
Stability and noise rejection

4. About Modulation
Application Examples
broadcasting of both audio and
video signals.
Mobile radio communications, such
as cell phone.
• Basic modulation types
– Amplitude Modulation: changes the amplitude.
– Frequency Modulation: changes the frequency.
– Phase Modulation: changes the phase.

5. Basic Amplitude Modulation
Amplitude Modulation is
the simplest and earliest
form of transmitters
The information signal
varies the instantaneous
amplitude of the carrier
6. AMPLITUDE MODULATION (AM)
In amplitude modulation, the message signal m(t) is impressed on
the amplitude of the carrier signal c(t) = Accos(2fct)
This results in a sinusoidal signal whose amplitude is a function
of the message signal m(t)
There are several different ways of amplitude modulating the
carrier signal by m(t)
Each results in different spectral characteristics for the
transmitted signal
We will describe these methods, which are called
(a) Double sideband, suppressed-carrier AM (DSB-SC AM)
(b) Single-sideband AM (SSB AM)

8. Amplitude Modulation
The condition for envelope detection of the AM signal
for all t [ A m(t )] 0
If m(t ) 0 and A=0 also satisfy the above condition
Let be the peak amplitude of
m p (t ) m(t )
m(t m p (t )
This condition)is equivalent to
A m p (t )
The min. carrier amplitude required for envelope
detection is
m p (t )
12. Double-Sideband Suppressed-Carrier AM
A double-sideband, suppressed-carrier (DSB-SC) AM signal is
obtained by multiplying the message signal m(t) with the carrier
signal c(t) = Accos(2fct)
Amplitude-modulated signal
u (t ) m(t )c(t ) Ac m(t ) cos(2 f c t )
An example of the message signal m(t), the carrier c(t), and the modulated
signal u (t) are shown in Figure 3.1
This figure shows that a relatively slowly varying message signal m(t) is
changed into a rapidly varying modulated signal u(t), and due to its rapid
changes with time, it contains higher frequency components
At the same time, the modulated signal retains the main characteristics of the
message signal; therefore, it can be used to retrieve the message signal at the
receiver

signals

14. Single-Sideband AM
The two sidebands of an AM signal are mirror images of one
another
As a result, one of the sidebands is redundant
Using single-sideband suppressed-carrier transmission results in
reduced bandwidth and therefore twice as many signals may be
transmitted in the same spectrum allotment
Typically, a 3dB improvement in signal-to-noise ratio is achieved
as a result of SSBSC
15. Single-Sideband AM
.
A method, illustrated in Figure
3.16, generates a DSB-SC AM
signal and then employs a filter
that selects either the upper
sideband or the lower sideband
of the double-sideband AM

signal sideband AM signal by filtering one of
the sidebands of a DSB-SC AM signal.

16. Sideband and carrier power
Carrier term does not carry information, and hence
the carrier power is wasted
AM (t ) A cos ct m(t ) cos ct carrier sidebands
The carrier power Pcis the mean sq. value of
A cos c twhich is A2 / 2
The sideband power Ps is the mean sq. value
of m(t ) cos c t which is m 2 (t ) / 2

18. Quadrature AM
Two carriers generated at the same frequency but 90º out of
phase with each other allow transmission of two separate
signals
This approach is known as Quadrature AM (QUAM or QAM)
Recovery of the two signals is accomplished by synchronous
detection by two balanced modulators
20. Advantages/disadvantages
Advantages of Amplitude Modulation, AM
There are several advantages of amplitude modulation, and some of these reasons
have meant that it is still in widespread use today:
It is simple to implement
it can be demodulated using a circuit consisting of very few components
AM receivers are very cheap as no specialized components are needed.
Disadvantages of amplitude modulation
Amplitude modulation is a very basic form of modulation, and although its
simplicity is one of its major advantages, other more sophisticated systems
provide a number of advantages. Accordingly it is worth looking at some of the
disadvantages of amplitude modulation.
It is not efficient in terms of its power usage
It is not efficient in terms of its use of bandwidth, requiring a bandwidth
equal to twice that of the highest audio frequency
It is prone to high levels of noise because most noise is amplitude based and
obviously AM detectors are sensitive to it.
