AMPLITUDE MODULATION & DEMODULATION
AIM: To study the amplitude modulation and demodulation for different modulation index.
APPARATUS REQUIRED:
THEORY: Amplitude Modulation is defined as a process in which the amplitude of the carrier wave c(t) is
varied linearly with the instantaneous amplitude of the message signal m(t). The standard form of an amplitude
modulated (AM) wave is defined by
s (t ) Ac [1 K a m t ] cos 2f c t
The demodulation circuit is used to recover the message signal from the incoming AM wave at the receiver. An
envelope detector is a simple and yet highly effective device that is well suited for the demodulation of AM
wave, for which the percentage modulation is less than 100%. Ideally, an envelope detector produces an output
signal that follows the envelop of the input signal wave form exactly; hence, the name. Some version of this
circuit is used in almost all commercial AM radio receivers.
(Vmax Vmin )
The Modulation Index is defined as, = (Vmax Vmin ) Where,
Vmax is the maximum amplitude of the modulated wave and Vmin is the minimum amplitude of the modulated
wave.

AIM: To generate AM-Double Side Band Suppressed Carrier (DSB-SC) signal and to demodulate the DSB-
SC signal using Synchronous detector.
APPARATUS REQUIRED:
4 Adaptor 1
5 Connecting wires Few
THEORY: Balanced modulator is used for generating DSB-SC signal. A balanced modulator consists of two
standard amplitude modulators arranged in a balanced configuration so as to suppress the carrier wave. The two
modulators are identical except the reversal of sign of the modulating signal applied to them. The message
signal m(t) is recovered from a DSB-SC wave s(t) by first multiplying s(t) with locally generated carrier wave
and then low-pass filtering as shown in the block diagram. It is assumed that the local oscillator output in the
detector is exactly coherent or synchronized, in both frequency and phase; with the carrier wave c(t) used to
generate s(t). This method of demodulation is known as coherent detection or synchronous detection.

SPECTRUM ANALYSER USING AM SIGNAL
APPARATUS REQUIRED:
THEORY: The analyzer of electrical signals is a fundamental problem for many Engineers and scientists. The
traditional ways of observing the electrical signal is in time domain by using oscilloscope. The time domain is
used to recover relative timing and phase information which is used to characterize electric circuit behavior. But
practically some circuits like Amplifiers, Filters, Oscillators, Modulators, Mixers etc. requires frequency domain
analysis. This frequency domain analysis can be easily studied in using Spectrum analyzer. It graphically
displays voltage or power function of frequency on a circuit.
Basically two types of spectrum analyzer are available. They are Swept tuned and Real time
The HM5010 is the swept tuned Spectrum analyzer. This spectrum analyzer permits the detection of spectrum
components of electrical signal in the frequency range of 0.15MHz to1050 MHz in the oscilloscope the
amplitude is displayed on the time domain and in spectrum analyzer it will be displayed in frequency domain.
CONTROL ELEMENTS:
MARKER ON / OFF: When the marker push button is set to the off position the CF indicator is lit and display
shows the center frequency. When the switch is in the ON position 1 MHz the display shows the marker
15
frequency. The marker shows on the screen a sharp peak the marker frequency is adjustable by means of the
marker knob and can be aligned with a spectral line.
NOTE: Switch off the marker before taking correct amplitude reading.
CF / MK: (CENTER FREQUENCY / MARKER): The CF LED is lit when the digital display shows the
center frequency. The center frequency is the frequency, which is displayed in the horizontal center of the CRT.
The MK LED is lit when the marker pushbutton is in the ON position. The digital display shows the marker
frequency in the case.
UNCAL: Blinking of this LED indicates incorrectly displayed amplitude values. This is to scan width and filter
setting combinations which give to low amplitude readings because the IF filters have not being settled. This
may occur when the scanned frequency range is too large compared to the IF bandwidth (20 KHz) and or the
video filter bandwidth (4KHz). Measurements in the case can either be taken without a video filter or the scan
width has to be decreased
CENTER FREQUENCY: COARSE / FINE: Both rotary knobs are used for center frequency setting. The
center frequency is displayed at the horizontal center of the screen.
BAND WIDTH: Selects between 400 KHz. If a bandwidth of 20 KHz is selected the noise level decreases and
the selectivity is improved spectral lines which are relatively close together can be distinguished. As the small
signal transient response amplitude values if the scan width is set at too wide a frequency span. The uncial LED
will indicate this condition.
SCAN WIDTH: The scan width selectors control the scan width per division of the horizontal axis. The
frequency / Dis can be increased by means of the > button and decreased by means of the < button. The width of
the scan range is displayed in MHz / Div. and refers to each horizontal division on the graticule the center
frequency is indicated by the vertical line at middle of the horizontal axis. The frequency decreased to the left in
a similar way. In this case the left graticule line corresponds to 0 Hz with these settings a spectral line is visible
which is refereed to as zero frequency. Spectral lines displayed left of the zero frequency point are so called
image frequency. In the zero scan made the spectrum analyzer operates like a receiver with selectable band
width. The frequency is selected via the center frequency. The selected scan width / div settings are indicated by
a number of LEDs above the range setting puss buttons.

DIODE DETECTOR
AIM: To demodulate the Amplitude Modulated wave and also plot the appropriate waveforms of diode detector.
APPARATUS REQUIRED:
2 Carrier generator 1
4 Adaptor 1
THEORY: The AM signal is applied to a basic half-wave rectifier circuit consisting of diode and resistor. The
diode conducts when the positive half of the AM signals occur. During the negative half cycles, the diode is
reverse-biased and no current flows through it. As a result, the voltage across resistor is a series of positive
pulses whose amplitude varies with the modulating signal. To recover the original modulating signal a capacitor
is connected across resistor. Its value is critical to good performance. The result is that the carrier is absent there
by leaving the original modulating signal. It is assumed that the local oscillator output in the detector is exactly
coherent or synchronized, in both frequency and phase; with the carrier wave c(t) used to generate s(t). This
method of demodulation is known as coherent detection or synchronous detection.

AIM: To observe the effects of Pre-emphasis and De-emphasis on given input signal.
APPARATUS REQUIRED:
THEORY: The noise has an effect on the higher modulating frequencies than on the lower ones. Thus, if the
higher frequencies were artificially boosted at the transmitter and correspondingly cut at the receiver, an
improvement in noise immunity could be expected, thereby increasing the SNR ratio. This boosting of the
higher modulating frequencies at the transmitter is known as pre-emphasis and the compensation at the receiver
is called de-emphasis.

THEORY: The selection of the overall gain of a communication receiver is usually based on the weakest signal
to be received. The detector may introduce a typical loss of -2 to -5dB if it is the diode type; and the gain of the
audio amplifier stage is in the 20 to 40 dB range. In many cases, the total gain is far greater that required for
adequate reception, excessive gain will usually cause the received signal to be distorted and the transmitted
information to be less intelligence. By using a AGC circuit adequate reception will result.

1. Connect the AC adapter to the mains and switch on the supply.

sampling theorem for a band limited signal of finite energy can be stated as,
A band limited signal of finite energy, which has no frequency component higher than W Hz is completely
described by specifying the values of the signal at instants of time separated by 1/2W seconds.
It can be recovered from knowledge of samples taken at the rate of 2W per second.

APPARATUS REQUIRED:
THEORY: PAM is the simplest form of data modulation. The amplitude of uniformly spaced pulses is varied in
proportion to the corresponding sample values of a continuous message m (t). A PAM waveform consists of a
sequence of flat-topped pulses. The amplitude of each pulse corresponds to the value of the message signal x (t)
at the leading edge of the pulse. The pulse amplitude modulation is the process in which the amplitudes of
regularity Spaced rectangular pulses vary with the instantaneous sample values of a continuous message signal
in a one-one fashion.

PULSE WIDTH MODULATION & DEMODULATION AND
AIM: To generate the pulse width modulated and demodulated signals and to generate the pulse position
modulated and demodulated signals
APPARATUS REQUIRED:
THEORY:
PWM: Pulse Time Modulation is also known as Pulse Width Modulation or Pulse Length Modulation. In PWM,
the samples of the message signal are used to vary the duration of the individual pulses. Width may be varied by
varying the time of occurrence of leading edge, the trailing edge or both edges of the pulse in accordance with
modulating wave. It is also called Pulse Duration Modulation.
PPM: In Pulse Position Modulation, both the pulse amplitude and pulse duration are held constant but the
position of the pulse is varied in proportional to the sampled values of the message signal. Pulse time
modulation is a class of signaling techniques that encodes the sample values of an analog signal on to the time
axis of a digital signal and it is analogous to angle modulation techniques. The two main types of PTM are
PWM and PPM. In PPM the analog sample value determines the position of a narrow pulse relative to the
clocking time. In PPM rise time of pulse decides the channel bandwidth. It has low noise interference.

APPARATUS REQUIRED:
THEORY: The best frequency demodulator is the phase locked loop (PLL). A PLL is a frequency or phase
sensitive feedback control circuit. It used not only in frequency demodulation but also in frequency synthesizers.
All PLLs have three basic elements as illustrated in Fig.1. A phase detector or mixer is used to compare the
input or reference signal with the output of a VCO. The VCO frequency is varied by the dc output voltage from
a low pass filter. It is the output of the phase detector that the low pass filter uses to produce dc control voltage.
This dc control voltage is called the error signal and is also the feedback in this circuit and will control the VCO.

SSB MODULATION AND DEMODULATION
AIM: To generate the SSB modulated wave and plot the appropriate waveforms
APPARATUS REQUIRED:
THEORY: An SSB signal is produced by passing the DSB signal through a highly selective band pass filter.
This filter selects either the upper or the lower sideband. Hence transmission bandwidth can be cut by half if one
sideband is entirely suppressed. This leads to single-sideband modulation (SSB). In SSB modulation bandwidth
saving is accompanied by a considerable increase in equipment complexity.
PROCEDURE:
1. Switch on the trainer and measure the output of the regulated power supply i.e., 12V and -8V.
2. Observe the output of the RF generator using CRO. There are 2 outputs from the RF generator, one is direct
output and another is 90o out of phase with the direct output. The output frequency is 100 KHz and the
amplitude is 0.2VPP. (Potentiometers are provided to vary the output amplitude).
3. Observe the output of the AF generator, using CRO. There are 2 outputs from the AF generator, one is direct
output and another is 90o out of phase with the direct output. A switch is provided to select the required
frequency (2 KHz, 4KHz or 6 KHz). AGC potentiometer is provided to adjust the gain of the oscillator (or
to set the output to good shape). The oscillator output has amplitude 10V PP. This amplitude can be varied
using the potentiometers provided.
4. Measure and record the RF signal frequency using frequency counter. (or CRO).
5. Set the amplitudes of the RF signals to 0.1 V p-p and connect direct signal to one balanced modulator and 90 o
phase shift signal to another balanced modulator.
6. Select the required frequency (2KHz, 4KHz or 6KHz) of the AF generator with the help of
switch and adjust the AGC potentiometer until the output amplitude is 10 V PP (when amplitude controls
are in maximum condition).
7. Measure and record the AF signal frequency using frequency counter (or CRO).
8. Set the AF signal amplitudes to 8 Vp-p using amplitude controls and connect to the balanced modulators.:
9. Observe the outputs of both the balanced modulators simultaneously using Dual trace oscilloscope and
