Both are forms of AM but in suppressed carrier a filter is used to attenuate the carrier frequency prior to transmission. This is usually done to reduce the total transmitter power consumption. An ordinary AM radio cannot correctly receive suppressed carrier stations, you must have a receiver that replaces the carrier prior to the detector stage.

Which modulation scheme requires the least minimum bandwidth?

Suppressed carrier single sideband amplitude modulation - SCSSBAM.


What is meant by single side band modulation?

Single side band suppressed carrier modulation is like amplitude modulation except that one of the sidebands is suppressed or filtered out. Each sideband carries the same though opposite, information, so suppressing the one sideband allows more power to be placed into the one remaining sideband. The downside, of course, is that the demodulation process is more complex.

The relationship of the bandwidth required for double-sideband emitted carrier AM to the bandwidth of the modulating signal of?

In Amplitude Modulation (AM), specifically in the case of Double Sideband Suppressed Carrier (DSB-SC) or Full Carrier (DSB-FC) AM, the required bandwidth is twice the bandwidth of the modulating signal. If the modulating signal has a bandwidth of B Hz, the bandwidth required for AM would be 2B Hz. This is because both the upper and lower sidebands of the carrier wave are utilized in the modulation process, each consuming bandwidth equivalent to the original signal.


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.

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 the dynamic characteristic of a double-sideband?

Double-sideband modulation is a type of amplitude modulation where both upper and lower sidebands are present with the carrier signal. The dynamic characteristic of double-sideband modulation is that it allows for efficient use of bandwidth but is susceptible to fading and interference.


What is standard AM sideband?

Standard AM sideband refers to the amplitude modulation (AM) technique where a carrier wave is modulated by an audio signal, producing two sidebands: the upper sideband (USB) and the lower sideband (LSB). In traditional AM broadcasting, both sidebands and the carrier are transmitted, resulting in a wider bandwidth and potentially more power usage. However, sideband modulation techniques like single sideband (SSB) can transmit only one of the sidebands and the carrier can be suppressed, allowing for more efficient use of bandwidth and power. Standard AM is commonly used in AM radio broadcasting.


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.

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.

What is the Comparison of frequency modulation and amplitude modulation?

I will answer this in the simplest way I know in the application I use it in; this would be in audio applications. Amplitude modulation is modulation of a carrier source's loudness; Frequency modulation is modulation of a carrier source's pitch; and Phase modulation is modulation of a carrier source's duty cycle/symmetry/timbre. One can often notice that all 3 modulation types relate in some way with another in that when frequency rises and falls it typically makes it favorable for either a rise in loudness or timbre. The most analog way to understand it in nature is typically your small vowel sounds like "iiiiiiiiiiiiii" as in the American-English word 'easy' and 'eeeeeeeeeeee' as in 'edge' are easier to say with loudness at higher pitches; medium vowel sounds like 'uuuuuuuuuuu' as in 'Utter' or 'sOn' and 'aaaaaaaaaaaa' as in 'Awe' *chuckles* are easier to say with loudness at medium pitches; large vowel sounds like 'ooooooooooo' as in 'Oh' and 'uuuuuuuuuuuu' as in 'rUne' are easier to say with loudness at lower pitches. AM is often known as 'tremolo'; FM is often known as 'vibrato'; PM is often known as 'wow'; AM/FM is 'vibremelo' and fill in the blanks for the other sub-variants. Maikel Stellerfield
