Practicability of Antennas
Antennas are used to radiate/receive radio wave in
wireless channels.
Antennas operate effectively only when their
dimensions are compatible with the wavelength of the
transmitted signal.
Example:
If f =1 kHz, = 300 km Antenna size is not feasible!
If f = 900 MHz, = 0.33 m Practical antenna length
17
Narrow Banding
For an audio range that extends from say, 50 to 10 4
Hz (refer Figure 2.6 on the following slide), the ratio of
the highest audio frequency to the lowest is 200, i.e.,
f max 10 4
200
f min
50
An antenna for use at one end of the audio frequency
range would be relatively too short/long for the other
end!

Types of Modulation
By the nature of the modulating signal
Digital modulation
The modulating signal is a digital signal
Examples: Amplitude Shift Keying (ASK), Frequency
Shift Keying (FSK), Phase Shift Keying (PSK)
Analog modulation
The modulating signal is an analog signal
Examples: AM, FM, PM, Pulse Amplitude Modulation
(PAM)

Full AM Description
The frequency spectrum of the AM waveform
consists of three parts:
A carrier component at fc
An upper sideband (USB) from fc to (fc + fm)
A lower sideband (LSB) from (fc fm) to fc

Modulation Index
The modulation index m is defined as a parameter
that determines the amount of modulation
i.e., the degree of modulation required to establish a
desirable AM communication link.
The solution is to maintain m < 1 (100%).
This is to ensure successful retrieval of the original
signal transmitted.
In the demodulation process, the message signal is
simply being traced out from the envelope of the
modulated signal.

Square-Law Modulator
It has three components:
Summer (summing the carrier and modulating
signals)
Non-linearity (square-law) block
Bandpass filter (BPF) of bandwidth (2B or 2 fm)
centered at fc to extract the desired modulation
products

Envelope Detector
The envelope detector is another full-AM detector commonly
employed to replace the square-law detector. Only
applicable if m 1.
It is a simpler and highly effective device producing a
waveform at its output that is proportional to the real
envelope of its input; i.e., the output of the detector simply
follows the envelope of the input signal.

Why SSB?
Conserve spectrum space
The spectrum space occupied by the SSB signal is only half
of that of the AM and DSB signals.
Allows more signals to be transmitted in the same
frequency range. It also means there should be less
interference between signals.
Stronger signal
The power previously devoted to the carrier + other
sideband can be channeled into the single sideband to
produce a stronger signal that could travel at a greater
distance and be more reliably received.
