Pt = Pc 1 +
in s(t)2
P = total transmitted power
t
Pc = transmitted power in carrier
Single Sideband (SSB)
Variant of AM is single sideband (SSB)
Sends only one sideband
Eliminates other sideband and carrier
Advantages
Only half the bandwidth is required
Less power is required
Disadvantages
Suppressed carrier can’t be used for synchronization
purposes
Pulse Modulation
0, f , 2 f , 3 f ...
At each of this there will be a set of sum and difference frequencies
(lower and upper sidebands) due to each frequency component of
the analogue signal.
If W and f-W do not overlap then it is possible to separate the group of
frequencies at the receiving end.
f −W ≥W f ≥ 2W
This means the repetition frequency must be at least twice the
highest frequency component in the analogue signal.
f min = 2W
This is also called the Nyquist rate.
Comment:
If the analogue signal is sampled for a short period of time and the
sample voltage is held at constant amplitude during the conversion
time, this is called flat‑top sampling.
DR(dB) = 6n
