Statement:
Generate AM wave (Amplitude Modulation) at a different modulation index.
Verify whether the modulation index depends on the band width of AM
modulated wave or the power of side bands?
Literature Background:
Amplitude Modulation:
The amplitude modulation is a technique in which the amplitude of the carrier
changes according to the instantaneous amplitude of the baseband signal.
(
) ( ) (1)
Power of a Signal:
Power is energy over a time period.
∫ || (2)
Band width:
Difference of highest and lowest frequencies which contain 90% energy of the
signal.
Where bandwidth of an AM is given by
B.W=2*fm (4)
“fm” is the highest frequency of baseband signal.

Questions:
Q1) What will happen to the power of side bands (increasing or
decreasing) with the increase of modulation index? Give mathematical
reasoning?
(5)
is power of
sidebands
is power of carrier wave
is Modulation index
From eq(5) it is clearly seen that power of the sidebands is directly proportional
to the Modulation index. With the increase in Modulation index, power of the
side bands also increases.
From eq(6) we clearly see that bandwidth depends on the higher frequency of
baseband signal not on Modulation index.
(7)
When = , =1
If is further increased, Over Modulation occurs which will cause distortion
in transmitted signal.
Conclusion:
Transmitted Power and Power of side bands increases with increase in
Modulation index.
