Introduction:
Amplitude Modulation
(AM) isprocessin whichtheamplitudeofcarriersignalisvarying
accordingtotheinformation(modulating)signal.
Carrier & information signals are passed through amplitude modulator, itproduceanAM
wave.
TheFrequencySpectrum:
ExperimentsinCommunicationEngineering:SemesterV
If we also havea1KHzinformationsignal,ormodulatingfrequency(fm),withamplitude
of2Vpeaktopeakitwouldlooklikethis,
The resultant AM signal has carrier signal and two new components, original signal is
disappear.Twonewcomponentsare,
i)
ii)
The resulting signal in this example has a maximum frequency of 1001 KHz and a
minimum frequency of 999 KHz and so it occupies a range of 2 KHz. This is called the
bandwidthofthesignal.
DepthofModulation:
ExperimentsinCommunicationEngineering:SemesterV
The amount by which the amplitude of the carrier wave increases and decreases depends
on the amplitude of the information signal and is called the 'depth of modulation'.
The
depthofmodulationcanbequotedasafractionorasapercentage.

THEORY:
We can simply transmit a single sideband, we can se a considerable power saving. The
bandwidth of an SSB is equal to the range of frequencies present in the information
waveform where as a DSB has a bandwidth twice as wide as the highest frequency. This
meansagreatlyreducedbandwidthforthesystem.

PROCEDURE:
(1) Ensure that the following initial conditions exist on the board.
AUDIO INPUT SELECT switch in INT position.
MODE switch in SSB position.
Output amplifiers gain preset in fully clockwise position.
SPEAKER switches in OFF position.
(2) Turn on power to the ST2201 board.
(3) Turn the AUDIO OSCILLATIOR blocks AMPLITUDE preset to its fully
clockwise(MAX) position and examine blocks output on t.p.14.This is the audio
frequency sine wave which will be our modulating signal whose frequency range is
300Hz-3.4KHz.
ExperimentsinCommunicationEngineering:SemesterV
(4) To achieve SSB amplitude Modulation, we will utilize the following three blocks
on the ST 2201 module.
455 KHz Oscillator block.
Balanced Modulator.
Ceramic Band Pass Filter.
Balanced Modulator & Band Pass Filter Circuit 2.
(5) Set the knob of Balanced Modulator such that the peaks of (t.p.17s) waveform
envelop all have equal Amplitude in Positive & Negative direction.
(6) This DSB-SC signal is applied at Ceramic Filter Block to remove the Lower Side
Band. So observe the o/p of ceramic at (t.p 20)
(7) The ST2201/ST2202 Receiver will accept radio frequency signals in the AM
Broadcast band, i.e. signals which fall in the frequency range of 525 KHz. However,
since the SSB o/p from the Ceramic Band pass Filter occupies a narrow band of
frequencies around 455 KHz, it is not suitable for direct transmission to the receiver.
(8) Set the knob of Balance Modulator such that the wave form is a good sine wave of
frequency approximately 0at (t.p 22)
(9) Observe the o/p of Output Amplifier Block at (t.p 13)
OBSERVATION:
Monitor the output of the ceramic band passfilterblock(atTP20)togetherwiththeaudio
modulating signal (at TP15) using thelatersignaltotriggertheoscilloscope.Notethatthe
envelope of the signal at TP20 now has fairly constant amplitude, as shown in below

The function of the diode detector is to extract the audio signal at the output of the IF
amplifiers. It performs this task in a very similarly way toahalfwaverectifierconvening
anACinputtoDcoutput.

In above fig. shows a simple circuit diagram of the diode detector. The diode conducts
every time the inputsignalappliedtoitsanode ismorepositivethanthevoltageonthetop

When the voltage falls below the capacitor voltage, the diode ceases to conduct and the
voltage across the capacitor leaks away until the next time the input signal is able to

Theory:
Frequency modulation is a system in which the information signal is used to control the
frequency of the carrier wave. In frequency modulation the amplitude of the modulated
carrieriskeptconstant,whileitsfrequencyisvariedbythemodulatingsignal.
The frequency of the carrier is made to increase as the voltage in the information signal
increases and to decrease in frequency as it reduces. The larger the amplitude of the
informationsignal,thefurtherthefrequencyofthecarriersignalisshiftedfrom itsstarting
point.
ExperimentsinCommunicationEngineering:SemesterV
By the definition of frequency modulation, the amount by which the carrier frequency is
varied from its unmodulated value, called the deviation, is made proportional to the
instantaneousvalueofthemodulatingvoltage.
The rate at which this frequency variation or oscillation takes place is naturally equal to
themodulatingfrequency.
Electricalnoisealterstheamplitudebutnotthesignalfrequency.
The information signal controlled the frequency of the carrier but had no effect on its
amplitude. Now, when any transmission is affected by electrical noise, the noisesignalis

PulseAmplitudeModulation:
Pulse Amplitude Modulation is analog in nature but it forms the basis of most digital
communication and modulation systems. The pulse modulation systems require analog
information to be sampled at predetermined intervals of time. Sampling is a process of
takingtheinstantaneousvalueoftheanaloginformationatapredeterminedtimeinterval.

A sampled signal consists of a train of pulses, where each pulse corresponds to the

Theory:
The Amplitude and width of the pulses is kept constant in this system, while theposition
of each pulse, in relation to the position of a recurrent reference pulse is varied by each
instantaneous sampled value of the modulating wave. As mentioned in connection with
pulse width modulation, pulseposition modulations has the advantage of requiring
constant transmitter power output, but the disadvantages of depending on transmitter
receiverissynchronization.
