Amplitude and Frequency Modulations
 

Amplitude and Frequency Modulations problem 6


  • In radio communication, the radio wave is usually modulated. State what is meant by amplitude modulation (AM).


  • A sinusoidal radio carrier wave has a frequency of and an unmodulated amplitude measured to be . The carrier wave is amplitude modulated by a signal of frequency . For the amplitude-modulated wave,


    • determine the wavelength,


    • describe the amplitude variation,


    • state the bandwidth.
