In this chapter we will discuss ways of demodulating am, cw, fm, phase, and pulse modulation. Amplitude modulation can be accomplished by multiplying the carrier sine wave by a gain or attenuation factor that varies in accordance with the intelligence signal 2. There are no amplitude scales shown, but you should be able to deduce the depth of modulation 1 by inspection.
Amplitude modulation can be carried out by linearly combining the carrier and intelligence signals then applying the result to a nonlinear component or circuit. In electronics and telecommunications, modulation is the process of varying one or more properties of a periodic waveform, called the carrier signal, with a modulating signal that typically contains information to be transmitted. Modulation is a process by which some characteristics of the carrier signal like its amplitude, frequency or phase are varied in proportion to message signal. While the amplitude and the phase of the carrier wave remain constant. This is further divided into amplitude and angle modulation. After continuous wave modulation, the next division is pulse modulation. Modulation techniques are roughly divided into four types. Amplitudeshift keying ask frequencyshift keying fsk phaseshift keying psk all of these techniques vary a parameter of a sinusoid to. Modulation is the process whereby message information is embedded into the radio frequency carrier. The efficiency of this modulation is very low because it uses a lot of power. The amplitude of the resultant output depends upon the input data whether it should be a zero level or a variation of positive and negative, depending upon the carrier frequency. Digital to analog encoding modulation techniques ask. The information is considered as the modulating signal and it is superimposed on the carrier wave by applying both of them to the.

The carrier signal with 0 phase shift is used with the first message signal m 1 t and the carrier signal with 90 phase shift is used with the second message signal m 2 t. In fm, the amplitude of the modulating carrier is kept constant while its frequency is varied by the modulating message signal. Basic concept of modulation the information source typically a low frequency signal referred to as the baseband signal carrier a higher frequency sinusoid example. Each type of modulation is different and requires different techniques to recover demodulate the intelligence. Amplitude shift keying ask is a type of amplitude modulation which represents the binary data in the form of variations in the amplitude of a signal. Both modulated signals are then added using summer to make a single signal having same frequency and bandwidth.
