Draw a block diagram of a simple modulator for obtaining amplitude modulated signal.
A carrier wave of peak voltage 12 V is used to transmit a message signal. What should be the peak voltage of the modulating signal in order to have a modulation index of 75%?
The block diagram of a simple modulator is as follows:

Given, peak carrier voltage, ![]()
Modulation index, ![]()
Let the peak voltage of modulating signal be ![]()
We know,
![]()
![]()
![]()
Hence, peak voltage of modulating signal should be 9V.
