Modulation and Demodulation

Generation of DSBSC Signal using Balanced and Ring Modulator

Generation of DSBSC Signal using Balanced and Ring Modulator: DSBSC signal can be obtained by simply multiplying the modulating signal with the carrier signal. By simple multiplication of Vc sin ωct and Vm sin ωmt, we have the lower and upper sidebands without carrier as shown below: It means that a DSBSC signal is obtained by simply multiplying …

Modulation – Definition, Types and Need for Modulation

Modulation – Definition, Types and Need for Modulation: Any wave has three significant characteristics viz. amplitude, frequency and phase, and modulation is a process of impressing information to be transmitted on a high frequency wave, called the carrier wave, by changing its one of the characteristics (amplitude, frequency or phase angle). Modulation may also be …
