Problem #1 [35 pts]
Consider the following message signal 𝑚𝑚(𝑡𝑡)
𝑚𝑚(𝑡𝑡) = cos(2𝜋𝜋 × 100𝑡𝑡) + cos(2𝜋𝜋 × 200𝑡𝑡) + cos(2𝜋𝜋 × 400𝑡𝑡)
This signal is applied to a SSB modulator together with a carrier at 100 kHz, with only the upper sideband
retained. In the coherent detector used to recover 𝑚𝑚(𝑡𝑡), the local oscillator supplies a sinusoidal wave of
frequency 100.02 kHz.
i. Determine the frequency components of the detector output.
ii. Draw a block diagram of the transmitter (modulator).
iii. Can an envelope detector be used for detecting the transmitted signal? (yes/no), why?
