The output stage of the transmitter is a high power frequency class C amplifier. Class C amplifiers conduct for only a portion of the positive half cycle of their input signal. The collector current pulses cause the tuned circuit to oscillate or ring at the desired output frequency. The tuned circuit, therefore, reproduces the negative portion of the carrier signal. The modulator is a linear power amplifier that takes the low level modulating signal and amplifies it to a high power level. The modulating output signal is coupled through modulation transformer T1 to the class C amplifier. The secondary winding of the modulation transformer is connected in series with the collector supply voltage Vcc of the class C amplifier.

Methods of amplitude modulation can be put in the two categories namely Linear modulation methods and Square law modulation methods. Linear modulation method utilizes the linear region of the current voltage characteristics of the amplifying device that is transistor or electron tube. Square law modulation method utilizes the square law region of some current voltage characteristics of a diode or transistor or electron tube. A large number of linear modulation methods have been devised and have been used to varying degree. These methods are namely linear shunt plate modulation or anode choke modulation, linear series plate modulation, grid bias modulation, cathode modulation, suppressor grid modulation, screen grid modulation, collector modulation. Square law modulation circuits make use of non linear current voltage characteristics of diodes or triodes and are in general suited for use at low voltages. Important square law modulation methods are square law diode modulation and balanced modulator.
for a collector to base biased circuit find the stability factor s?what is the effect on s for change in current amplification factor?
The collector voltage is not necessarily approximately zero when a transistor has a collector-emitter short. It depends on whether or not there is an emitter resistor.A typical collector-emitter circuit has two resistors, one in the collector and one in the emitter. One or both of them might be zero, i.e. not present, depending on design requirements. The collector-emitter junction represents a third resistor, the value of which is dependent on base-emitter vs collector-emitter current ratios and hFe.If the collector-emitter junction is shorted, then this circuit degrades to a simple voltage divider, or single resistor, and the collector-emitter voltage differential will be approximately zero. Simply calculate the voltage based on the one or two resistances.Results could be different than calculated, if the resistors are small in camparision to the shorted impedance, and it could be different depending on the base to emitter or collector relationship in that fault state, though the latter case is usually negligible due to the relatively high resistances of the base bias circuit.
Collector modulation is the amplitude modulation in which modulator varies the collector voltage of a transistor.
A collector modulator is a type of amplitude modulation (AM) used in RF (radio frequency) transmitters, where the modulation of the carrier signal occurs in the collector circuit of a transistor. The input audio signal varies the base current, which in turn controls the collector current and voltage, resulting in variations of the output RF signal's amplitude. This modulation technique allows for efficient transmission of audio signals over radio waves, as the carrier's amplitude reflects the changes in the input signal. The collector modulator is favored for its simplicity and effectiveness in generating modulated signals.
amplitude modulation using collector modulator gives:More symmetrical envelope• Higher power efficiency• Higher output power• Need higher amplitude modulatingsignal
circuit of modulation PSK
Modulation doesn't create radio waves. After a radio wave has been created by an "oscillator" circuit, modulation may be used to add information to it, in some way that someone else will understand when he receives the radio signal and will be able to recover the information with which it's been modulated.

It is a device or electronic circuit that changes the frequency of an oscillator according to the amplitude of modulating signal. For instance, if the modulation is linear, the modulator changes the frequency proportional to the amplitude of the modulating voltage.
