 What is DSB-SC?
• Double-Sideband Suppressed Carrier (DSBSC) is a
modulation technique used in communication systems.
• In DSBSC, the carrier signal is suppressed, and only the
sidebands are transmitted.
• This helps conserve bandwidth compared to traditional
amplitude modulation (AM), making it more efficient for
certain applications like radio transmission.
• The carrier signal is entirely suppressed, resulting in a
spectrum concentrated around zero frequency.
• The sidebands are mirrored on either side of the suppressed
carrier frequency, and their amplitudes are identical.

Advantages :
DSB-SC provides 50% modulation efficiency due to the
absence of carrier.
It consumes less power again due to the absence of
carrier in DSB-SC.
• It provides the large bandwidth due to the presence of
two sidebands.
• The output frequency is twice the frequency of the
modulated signal.
• Low cost

Disadvantages :

The efficiency of DSB with the carrier is low due to the

presence of the carrier.
• The power wastage is high in DSB compared to other
types of Amplitude Modulation because of the two
sidebands that are not effectively utilized.

• DSB-SC is also used in wireless communication and
two way FM (Frequency Multiplexing).

 What is SSB?
• Single-Sideband (SSB) modulation is a technique used in
communication systems where only one sideband and the
carrier are transmitted, while the other sideband is
suppressed.
• This efficient use of bandwidth makes SSB modulation
suitable for applications like long-distance radio
communication.
• It eliminates redundancy present in Double-Sideband
(DSB) modulation, providing improved spectral
efficiency.

Advantages :
It allows multiple signals to transmit.
SSB technique requires less bandwidth as compared to
DSB technique.
Less power is consumed.
It allows transmission of the high power signal.
• It provides less interference to noise due to the
reduction in bandwidth.

Disadvantages :

Implementation of SSB holds complex nature.

It is expensive.
• SSB technique requires a transmitter and receiver to
be highly frequency stable. As some slight change in
frequency will deteriorate the quality of the signal.
