Weaver’s/Third Method “This method, a variant of the Phasing method, was invented in 1950 by DK Weaver. “It avoids the need for Wideband Phase-shifters which are difficult to construct & expensive, instead, uses an AF subcarrier at an Audio frequency, say fy. ssesc Sait wannes| 8 [ec tans Jo aa ca ; 4 covey iz ge pr fsapiae] seo] PRR Bee) ‘de = ite same in ™ (Tnecater] [recor | ~Y . ed A nas sna Balanced 4 = rod] nts} >> oss} — Fig. 4.54 Weover's method of generation of $S8¢ signals A: sin@yt B: 2sinay! sinayt G: sin, —@, 8 D: sin(@,, ~@ )'eose,t Hsin, ey +04) -sinlo, +04 ~ 0] E: 2sine,tsinayt F: c0s(@, ey) G: sina10s(0,, 04) a plein, +0 —0, )f +8in(@, 0, +0, )¢] +: D+G: sin@,=0, +0y) -D+G: sin(@, +0 +0)nO eer rea) en Audio Carrier c(t) | Generator Sry ig a'(0) ni) aa ae Ty ike cram BCS) Sd Shifter oo) RSG Modulated Signal aBalanced Modulator 1 Ere oie Sea ee) F> x(t) = [sin (2n)] [cos (2nf)] on CL mee eet ees ms > " . eeu are ale ©} Low — pass BC] Filter CeCe REI Ceny] i ICE er ear ug i ST caer ee aC Carrier signal ¢,(t) = cos(2mf,t) Pei stot 1Co) Eee es od eee) [2sin 27fn — fo)t- cos (2mfet)] [sin 2a(fe + fn - fo)t sin 2n(fc - fn + fot] Oe ar I aes CeBalanced Modulator 2 90 deg. phase shifted en Low — pass Cie ad ra Message Signal m(t) = sin(27fmt) Carrier signal c,'(t) = sin(2nfot) x(t) = m(t).cy'(t) EEAO RSC nC mC ICU) SENG Rese Cum Cay] cor Cee Ce eto Cea DENG Ree SCL (mies aera OT rl ae Oe a ny ee HD Z cos 27% USm — Sot Balanced Modulator 4 Ce Oe aor Cae Od Carrier signal ¢,/(¢) = sin(2mfet) v2(t) = ya(t).¢2'(t) Ee a1 Read ee ek ee Ld Lead 3 v9(0) = 5 [20s 2Fm — fodt-sin nf.t)] PT A eer ee ee eo) P v2(0) old eee ae es ea Hoa ee eaterUpper Sideband SSB-SC NOM te em a cute cr ae vi(t) = Output generated by Ralanced Modulator — 4 ee ee 510 = 10 +210) 1 Chair Ss ad a es ee ee ee eee eee] ER Ce $1) = 5-sin 20(fe — fo + fm)t vir Fl SC iri (G rs Lower Sideband SSB-SC TOME aug aac onium Clee) v,(t) = Output generated by Balanced Modulator — 4 OETA EEAG) 1 Aer aural nm oo [sin 20(f. — fo + fin)t — sin 20(f. + fo — fn )t] RCo ean 2rCUfe + fo — fm)t il P16 2a ler ee LoS 1 = $2(0) = 5 sin 2x € -2Advantages of Weaver’s Method 1) No need for any Sideband suppression filters. 2) No need for any Wideband phase shifters. 3) As the Phase shifters used are for a single frequency, they are extremely simple & inexpensive. 4) No need for frequent adjustments. 5) Easy to change over from USSB-SC to LSSB-SC and vice-versa. Disadvantages of Weaver's Method 1) Direct competition with Filter method , but it is very complex. 2) Expensive & cannot be used commercially.
