Amplitude Modulation - Power Distribution

This document discusses analog communication fundamentals including AM power distribution and modulation by a complex wave. It explains that in AM power distribution, the carrier power is unaffected by modulation while the total power increases with increasing modulation index m. It also discusses that for modulation by a complex wave, the combined modulation coefficient is the sum of coefficients of the individual input signals, and the upper/lower sideband and total transmitted powers can be determined from this.

ANALOG AND DIGITAL COMMUNICATION

Presentation by: KARTHIKA S. AP,ECE SSN College of Engineering

UNIT I
FUNDAMENTALS OF ANALOG COMMUNICATION

Learning Objectives
On completion of this session you will be able to: Understand AM power distribution Understand modulation by a complex waave

AM POWER DISTRIBUTION
The average power dissipated in a load by unmodulated carrier is given by Pc = (0.707 Ec )2/R = (Ec )2/2R The upper and lower sideband powers are expressed mathematically as Pusb = Plsb = (m Ec/2)2/2R

= m2 Ec2 /8R = m2 Pc /4

AM POWER DISTRIBUTION
Total power in an AM DSBFC envelope is Pt = Pc+ Pusb+ Plsb = Pc+ (m2 Pc /4) + (m2 Pc /4) = Pc+ (m2 Pc /2)

AM POWER DISTRIBUTION
Factoring Pc gives Pt = Pc[1+ (m2 /2)]

AM POWER DISTRIBUTION
From the AM power analysis the following characteristics can be noted 1. Carrier power is unaffected by the modulation process 2. m increases, Pt increases

AM POWER DISTRIBUTION
For m = 0, Pt is equal to Pc For m = 1, total sideband power is one half of carrier power most of the power is wasted in carrier since information is contained in the sideband disadvantage of AM DSBFC

AM CURRENT CALCULATION
The relationship between carrier current and the current of the modulated wave is
