1.Multitone amplitude modulation

What is multi tone amplitude modulation?

A multiple-tone amplitude modulation is the type of


modulation in which the modulating signal consists of more
than one frequency components.Multi tone signals are
composed of multiply single sine waves or tones with a
unique amplitude,phase and frequency.
In the spectrum domain, the multi tone or RF energy
will be present at a

unique frequency. In the time domain, the multiply


signals or tones will be a composite signal in

which each of the tones will add or cancel to make a


composite sign
Mathematical expression of
multitone AM

modulated by a baseband or modulating signal x(t)
which is expressed as :

2.Generation of AM using Switching
Modulaton
The following two modulators generate AM wave.

i.Square law modulator


ii.Switching modulator

ii.Switching Modulator
The 'switching-modulator' or the 'square-law'
modulator can be used for generating amplitude
modulation (AM/DSB).
Following is the block diagram of
the square law modulator

Switching modulator is similar to the square law


modulator. The only difference is that in the square
law modulator, the diode is operated in a non-linear
mode, whereas, in the switching modulator, the
diode has to operate as an ideal switch.
Let the modulating and carrier signals be denoted as m(t) and
c(t)=Accos(2πfct) respectively.
These two signals are applied as inputs to the summer
(adder) block. Summer block produces an output, which is
the addition of modulating and carrier signals.
Mathematically, we can write it as

V1(t)=m(t)+c(t)=m(t)+Accos(2πfct)
This signal V1(t) is applied as an input of diode.
Assume, the magnitude of the modulating signal is very
small when compared to the amplitude of carrier signal
Ac. So, the diode’s ON and OFF action is controlled by
carrier signal c(t).

This means, the diode will be forward biased when c(t)>0


and it will be reverse biased when c(t)<0.

Therefore, the output of the diode is

V2(t)={V1(t) if c(t)>0
0 if c(t)<0
• We can approximate this as
V(t)=V1(t)x(t)(Equation 2)
Where, x(t) is a periodic pulse train with time period
T=1/fc

The Fourier series representation of this periodic pulse


train is
Substitute, V1(t) and x(t) values in Equation 2.
• The 1st term of the above equation represents the
desired AM wave and the remaining terms are unwanted
terms. Thus, with the help of band pass filter, we can pass
only AM wave and eliminate the remaining terms.
• Therefore, the output of switching modulator is
We know the standard equation of AM wave is

• Where, ka is the amplitude sensitivity.


3. Generation of DSB-SC
modulation
Definition: DSB-SC is an amplitude modulated wave
transmission scheme in which only sidebands are
transmitted and the carrier is not transmitted as it
gets suppressed. Genneration of DSB-SC signal
Let’s have a look at the block diagram of the DSB-SC
system shown below:
Here, by observing the above figure, we can say that a
product modulator generates a DSB-SC signal.

The signal is obtained by the multiplication of


baseband signal x(t) with carrier signal cos ωct
By frequency shifting property of
Fourier transform

From the above equation, it is clear that only 2


components are present in the spectrum. These two are
the two sidebands that are placed at +ωc and -ωc.

Let’s have a look at the pictorial representation of a


waveform for DSB-SC system-
Mathematical Expression
In order to get an exact an idea about the
suppression of carrier in DSB-SC system.

Consider the baseband or modulating signal,


x(t) = Ax cos (2πfxt)
and the carrier signal,

c(t) = Ac cos (2πfct)


The mathematical representation of the signal at the
output of the product modulator is given as-
s(t) = x(t).c(t)
Further,

The maximum frequency is fc + fx


The minimum frequency is fc – fx
As we know,
Bandwidth is given as

BW = fmax – fmin
BW = fc + fx – (fc – fx)
BW = 2fx
Thus, at the output, the DSB-SC wave contains a signal whose frequency is twice
the frequency of the baseband signal.

Carrier suppression in DSB-SC (Balanced


Modulator)

A non-linear device has the capability to


produce two sidebands with a carrier. But, a
balanced mode connection of two non-linear
devices produces a DSB-SC signal.
Let’s have a look at the circuit of the
balanced modulator using diodes

As we can see that the baseband input signal is applied at


the input of two diodes that are 180⁰ phase reversed with
each other through a centre tapped transformer.
Hence the input at D1,

v1 = cos ωct + x(t)

and input at D2

At the output side tuned bandpass filter is obtained by


parallel connection of RLC circuit
So, the current through D1 is given as
Similarly,

the output voltage is given by


vo = i1 R – i2 R

On substituting the above-given value of i1 and i2 in


the output equation, we will have,

vo = R [2 a x(t)] (+ 4b x (t) cos ωct)]


Therefore, the output is,
vo = 2aR x(t) + 4bRx (t) cos ωct

2aR x(t) = modulating signal

4bR x(t) cos ωct = DSB-SC signal

Thus, from the above expression, it is clear that output voltage is a


combination of modulating signal along with the DSB-SC signal.After the
elimination of the modulating signal, the DSB-SC signal is then passed to the LC
bandpass and is received at the output.

Thus we will have,


4bR x(t) cos ωct = K x(t) cos ωct
At the output.
