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.
