If you subtract from the carrier frequency the frequency of the tone that modulates it, then filter out the carrier frequency, then you have a lower sideband frequency. If you add to the carrier frequency, filter out the carrier, then you have an upper sideband frequency.

Why is the single sideband suppressed carrier version of amplitude modulation is not used for the sound broadcasting and television broadcasting?

A single sideband receiver have a BFO (Beat Frequency Isolator) that is generating the other half side of the original audio. The BFO is hand tuned to clarify the audio to, as close as possible to the original sound. An automatic clarifier is not really possible therefore music and voices never sound the same as the original.


Examples of Double SideBand and Single SideBand applications Elaborate your answers?

Explain the difference between the various forms of a.m & f.m and which jutifies the radio station's choice of modulation for each waveband?


The total power content of an AM signal is 1000W Determine the power being transmitted at the carrier frequency and at each of the sidebands when the percent modulation is 100 percent?

In Double Sideband AM (DSB-AM) modulation, two thirds of the power is consumed by the carrier, so 667W would be transmitted at the carrier frequency. The remaining 333W is split equally between the two sidebands, each being mirror images of each other.


Underground cable the distortion in the transmission of carrier frequency can be eliminated by using?

In an underground cable, the distortion in the transmission of carrier frequency can be eliminated using inductive loading. This distortion causes a delay which will result into a variance of frequencies.Ê


What causes the gain of OP AMP to roll off after a certain frequency is reached?

A: Any amplifier will reach a frequency cut off point because of hindered circuit capability however the roll of bust be controlled especially when reaching oDB point must be at a -3 db roll off to prevent hi frequency oscillation

How do you calculate frequency range of double side band modulated signal?

Upper sideband = Carrier frequency + modulating frequencyLower sideband = Carrier frequency - modulating frequency


If the frequency in AM does not change then how are these sidebands formed?

The process of changing the amplitude of the "carrier" so as to add information to it (modulation) doesn't change the frequency of the carrier. But it does create energy at two other newfrequencies.The new frequencies are equal to (carrier frequency) plus and minus (the modulating frequency). These are referred to as the upper and lower sidebands.The upper sideband is an exact copy of the modulating signal, but with every component of it shifted up by an amount equal to the carrier frequency. The lower sideband is a mirror image of the upper sideband, with every frequency component in it reflected about the carrier frequency.


What is vestigial side band transmission?

Vestigial sideband (VSB) is a type of amplitude modulation ( AM ) technique (sometimes called VSB-AM ) that encodes data by varying the amplitude of a single carrier frequency . Portions of one of the redundant sidebands are removed to form a vestigial sideband signal - so-called because a vestige of the sideband remains.


What is analog modulation?

Analog modulationIn analog modulation, the modulation is applied continuously in response to the analog information signal.Common analog modulation techniques are:Amplitude modulation (AM) (here the amplitude of the modulated signal is varied) Double-sideband modulation (DSB) Double-sideband modulation with unsuppressed carrier (DSB-WC) (used on the AM radio broadcasting band)Double-sideband suppressed-carrier transmission (DSB-SC)Double-sideband reduced carrier transmission (DSB-RC)Single-sideband modulation (SSB, or SSB-AM), SSB with carrier (SSB-WC)SSB suppressed carrier modulation (SSB-SC)Vestigial sideband modulation (VSB, or VSB-AM)Quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM)Angle modulation Frequency modulation (FM) (here the frequency of the modulated signal is varied)Phase modulation (PM) (here the phase shift of the modulated signal is varied)

What is narrow band modulation frequency?

When the frequency sensitivity of the modulating signal is small,the bandwidth of the FM is narrow. The narrowband FM has one carrier term two sideband terms.The modulation index is also small compared to one radian.

How single sideband is being generated?

In regards to the radio transmission mode, SSB is an improvement of AM, and there are generally three ways single sideband can be generated -- filtering out the unwanted sideband and suppressing the carrier; using phasing to suppress the unwanted sideband and carrier (Hartley modulator); or quadrature mixing and filtering (Weaver modulator).


What is function of an oscillator?

A local oscillator is an electronic device used to generate a signal normally for the purpose of converting a signal of interest to a different frequency using a mixer. This process of frequency conversion, also referred to as heterodyning, produces the sum and difference frequencies of the frequency of the local oscillator and frequency of the input signal of interest. These are the beat frequencies. Normally the beat frequency is associated with the lower sideband, the difference between the two.

What are the advantages and disadvantages of double sideband suppressed carrier modulation?

Amplitude modulation of a carrier results in a transmitted signal consisting of the carrier, plus an 'upper sideband' and a 'lower sideband', spaced above and below the carrier frequency by the frequency of the modulation.The bandwidth of the whole signal is double the modulation frequency. Also, the power in the carrier is constant, and power must be added in order to radiate the sidebands.All the receiver needs in order to extract the information from the signal is one complete sideband, and knowledge of the frequency and phase of the carrier. Economically speaking, the carrier is wasted power, and the other sideband is wasted power andwasted spectrum.If you can filter away one of the sidebands before transmission, then you save half of the occupied spectrum, and the receiver has everything it needs to decode the signal. If you can also filter away the carrier ... or at least knock it way down ... before transmission, you can save a lot of power and use it for the remaining sideband, which extends your range for a given amount of power. The receiver still has everything it needs, as long as it can pick up a sniff of carrier ... enough to derive the carrier frequency and phase.This mode is known as "Single Sideband Suppressed Carrier". It's exactly how the video portion of standard NTSC analog TV was transmitted, throughout all of human history until June 2009.


In frequency modulation what happens to the bandwidth when you increase the modulating frequency?

Bandwidth increases as a function of both modulating frequencyand deviation. As deviation increases, pairs of sidebands are generated, each equal to fc+m and fc-m, fc+2m, fc-2m etc. where fc = the carrier frequency and m = the modulating frequency. Increasing modulation (frequency deviation) will change the level of each of the sideband pairs - and the carrier, which at times falls to zero.
