Best Answer

An amplitude modulated signal consists of a CW (continuous wave) at the carrier frequency, plus two

components for each frequency in the modulating information. The two components are separated

from the carrier by a frequency equal to the modulating frequency, with one above and one below the

carrier frequency. Thus, the modulating information appears twice in the spectrum of the modulated signal.

V = cos(2 pi freq-1 t) times cos(2 pi freq-2 t).

The frequency spectrum of 'V' consists of a central component at freq-2, and two other components,

one on either side of freq-2, spaced by (freq-1) above and below it. These 'sidebands' appear at

(freq-2 - freq-1) and (freq-2 + freq-1). I don't remember what the amplitude of the sidebands is,

compared to the amplitude of the 'carrier' (freq-2).

What is the purpose of conducting a spectrum analysis?

In order to conduct a spectrum analysis one needs a spectrum analyzer. This device measure the magnitude of an input signal versus frequency within the full frequency range of instrument. The purpose of this is to measure the power of the spectrum of known and unknown signals.

Does the speed of the wave increase as you move from left to right on the electromagnetic spectrum?

No. As the radiation frequency moves from left to right in the frequency spectrum, the wave speed is the same in a certain medium -- in vacuum, it is 3E8 m/s. The energy increases with frequency, though.
