% Script to implement and visualize Amplitude Modulation (AM)

% Define carrier signal parameters carrier_frequency = 50; % Hz carrier_amplitude = 1;

% Define message signal parameters message_frequency = 5; % Hz message_amplitude = 0.8; modulation_index = 0.7;


% (0 to 1)

% Define time vector sampling_frequency = 500; % Hz (at least 2x carrier frequency) t = 0:1/sampling_frequency:1;

% Generate the carrier signal carrier_signal = carrier_amplitude * cos(2 * pi * carrier_frequency * t);

% Generate the message signal message_signal = message_amplitude * cos(2 * pi * message_frequency * t);

% Implement Amplitude Modulation (Standard AM) am_signal = (carrier_amplitude + modulation_index *


message_signal) .* cos(2 * pi * carrier_frequency * t);

% Implement Amplitude Modulation with suppressed carrier (DSB-SC) dsb_sc_signal = message_signal .* cos(2 * pi *
carrier_frequency * t);

% Theory: Amplitude Modulation (AM) is a fundamental modulation technique % used in communication systems to
transmit information over a carrier wave. % In standard AM, the amplitude of the high-frequency carrier signal is varied
% in proportion to the instantaneous amplitude of the low-frequency message % signal. The modulation index (m)
determines the extent of amplitude variation. % Double-Sideband Suppressed Carrier (DSB-SC) AM is a variation where
the carrier % frequency component is suppressed, leading to more efficient power usage. % This code generates and
visualizes the carrier, message, and the resulting % AM (both standard and DSB-SC) signals, illustrating the basic
principle of % amplitude modulation.
