Question:
An amplitude modulated signal is plotted below:
Which one of the following best describes the above signal?
Correct Option: , 3
Solution:
(3) After analysing the graph we may conclude that
(i) Amplitude varies as $8-10 \mathrm{~V}$ or $9 \pm 1$
(ii) Two time period as
$100 \mu \mathrm{s}$ (signal wave) \& $8 \mu \mathrm{s}$ (carrier wave)
So, equation of AM signal is
$\left[9 \pm 1 \sin \left(\frac{2 \pi t}{T_{1}}\right) \sin \left(\frac{2 \pi t}{T_{2}}\right)\right]$
$\left.=\left[9 \pm \sin \left(2 \pi \times 10^{4} \mathrm{t}\right)\right] \sin \left(2.5 \pi \times 10^{5} \mathrm{t}\right) \mathrm{V}\right]$
