THEORY:-
AMPLITUDE MODULATION:- In amplitude modulation, amplitude of
carrier wave is varied in accordance with the amplitude of the modulating signal
or message signal, but the frequency of carrier remains constant.
AM wave is given by following expression.
EAM = (Ec+Emsin(ωmt)).sinωct
A Sine wave carrier is of the form ec=Acsin (ωct)
A Sine wave modulation signal is of the form em=Amsin (ωmt)
Modulation Factor:-The amount by which amplitude of the carrier wave
increases or decreases depends on the amplitude of information signal and is
called modulation factor.
Modulation factor = 𝑉𝑚𝑎𝑥 −𝑉𝑚𝑖𝑛

form such an AM waveforms, the generation of double sideband suppressed
carrier (DSBSC) AM is also investigated. To avoid unnecessary loading of

THEORY:-
Envelope Detector:- Consider the case of an AM wave in which the carrier
frequency is much larger than the message frequency and the AM wave looks
like the modulating signal. Thus desired modulation can be accomplished by
extracting the envelope of the resultant AM wave.
Principle of Operation:- On the positive half cycle of the input signal, the
device is forward biased and the capacitor C charges rapidly to the peak of the
i/p signal, where the input signal falls below this value the diode becomes
reverse biased and capacitor C discharges through the load Resistor RL , The
discharge process continues until the next positive half cycle.
When the input signal becomes greater than the voltage across the capacitor the
diode conducts again and the process is repeated. We assume the diode to be
ideal in the sense that it presents zero impedance to the current, in the forward
biased region and the infinite impedance in the reversed bias region. We also
assume that the AM wave has been applied to the envelope detector from a
voltage source having a series resistor Rs and the time constant Rs C much short
compared with the carrier time period RsC <<1/fc, So that the capacitor charges
rapidly and there by follows the applied voltage when the diodes are conducting.
On the other hand discharging time constant RLC must be long enough to ensure
that the capacitor discharges slowly through the RL between the positive peak of
the carrier wave but not so long that the capacitor voltage does not discharges at
the maximum rate of change of the modulating wave i.e. 1/fc ≤ RLC ≤≤ 1/ω.

Where ω is the message bandwidth. The result is that the capacitor voltage,
which is the detected output, is nearly same as the envelope of the AM wave. In
the detected output some ripples may be present which may be finally removed
by using a low pass filter.
Diagonal Peak Clipping Effect:- When the discharge time constant RLC is too
large and when the envelope of the modulating signal is falling, the diode will
not conduct even around the peak of the carrier cycle and the detected output
voltage will therefore fail to follow the envelope of the input signal during this
period. The detected output will thus only be a distorted version of the envelope
of the input signal. This type of distortion is called ‟Diagonal Clipping‟. For the
given time constant RLC and the given modulating signal frequency fm the
maximum permissible depth of modulation mmax that will ensure absence of
diagonal clipping is given by,
mmax=1/(1+ ωm2RL
2C
2)1/2
In most of the practical applications mmax is nearly 0.6 i.e. 60%.
The second type of distortion which occurs at modulation index greater than
100% is the negative peak clipping which occurs as the results of the
overlapping of two envelopes which takes place when the percentage
modulation is more than 100%. Such as AM wave when given to the diode
detector will be clipped at the negative peak because the detector cannot follow
the negative peak of the envelope as the diode for all values negative peak will
be reversed biased.
Modulation Factor:- The amount by which the amplitude of the carrier wave
increases or decreases depends on the amplitude of information signal and is
called modulation factor.
Modulation factor = 𝑉𝑚𝑎𝑥 −𝑉𝑚𝑖𝑛
𝑉𝑚𝑎𝑥 +𝑉𝑚𝑖𝑛
This modulation factor can also be defined as the ratio of modulation signal
amplitude of the carrier amplitude.
mAM = Em/Ec where 0 ≤ mAM ≤ 1

to zero, by turning the Audio oscillators amplitude present to its fully counter

THEORY:-
Frequency Modulation:- Frequency modulation (FM) is that form of angle
modulation in which the instantaneous frequency of carrier is varied linearly
with respect to message signal.
fi=fc+kf.m(t)
fi = instantaneous frequency
fc = frequency of carrier wave.
Kf = frequency sensitivity of modulation in Hz/V
m(t) = voltage signal of message signal
m(t) =Am Cos{2πfmt}
FM signal, s(t) = Ac cos{2πfct+2πKf }
FM Transmitter:- FM wave contains an infinite number of side band
frequencies for sinusoidal modulation therefore the required bandwidth for
transmitting such signal is also of infinite extent.
Generation of FM waves:- There are basically two methods of generation of
FM signal.
1. Indirect method
2. Direct method

1. Indirect Method:-Narrow band frequency modulated wave (NBFM) is first
produced be modulating the carrier wave by base band signal m(t). The resulting
narrow band signal is than multiplied to have desired frequency deviation of ∆f.
2. Direct Method:-The carrier frequency is directly changed in accordance with
the input base band signal by means of VCO (voltage controlled oscillator).
Advantages of FM:-
1. The amplitude of FM wave is constant. It is thus independent of modulation
depth and thus more efficient.
2. FM receiver can be fitted with the amplitude limiter to remove amplitude
variation caused by noise.
3. FM broadcast is used in upper UHF&GHF frequency ranges at which there
happens to be less noise than in the MF&HF range occupied by AM broadcast.

2. CRO 20 MHz Scientech 1
3. Connecting Probes 7-8
THEORY:-
The pulse Amplitude modulation (PAM) system is where the train of pulse
corresponding to the samples of each signal is modulated in amplitude in
accordance with the signal itself I.e. the height of the transmitted pulse very with
the amplitude of the message.
Sample and Hold Output:-If the pulse width of carrier pulse train used in
natural sampling is made very short compared to the pulse period, the natural
PAM is referred to as instantaneous PAM. As it has been discussed, shorter
pulse is desirous for allowing many signals to be included in TDMA format but
the pulse can be highly corrupted by noise due to lesser signal power one way to
maintain reasonable pulse energy is to hold the sample value until the next
sample is taken. This technique is formed as sample and hold techniques now,
the area under the curve (which is equivalent to the signal power) is greater and
so the filter output amplitude and quality of reproduced signal is improved.
The “hold” facility can be provided by a capacitor when the switch connects the
capacitor to PAM output it charges to the instantaneous value. A buffered
sample and Hold circuit consists of unit gain buffers proceeding and succeeding
the charging capacitor the high input impedance of the proceeding buffer
prevents the loading of the message source and also ensures that the capacitor
charges by a constant rate irrespective of the source impedance. The high input
impedance of the succeeding buffers prevents the charge form the capacitor due
to loading and hence the capacitor can hold the charge for infinite time, at least

theoretically. However small leakage current through the capacitor dielectric
into positive input of second buffer is always present which causes gradual
charge loss. The rate of change of voltage w.r.t. time dv/dt is called as drop rate
and is important parameter in sample and hold circuit design.

THEROY:-
Pulse Amplitude Modulation:-It may be that type of modulation in which the
amplitude of regularly spaced rectangular pulses is varied according to
instantaneous value of the modulating or message signal input. The pulses of
PAM signal may be of flat top type or ideal type. Out of PAM, PPM & PWM,
PAM is widely used because during the transmission the noise interferes with
the top of the transmitted pulses on this noise can be easily removed if PAM
pulse has flat top.
Demodulation of PAM Signal:- Demodulation is the reverse process of
modulation in which the modulating signal is recovered back from a modulated
signal. PAM demodulation is done using a sample and hold circuit and 2nd
order
low pass filter.

THEORY :-
Pulse Width Modulation:- In this type of modulation, the width of the pulse of
carrier signal is varied in accordance with the instantaneous value of amplitude
message signal. In PWM the bandwidth of transmission channel depends on rise
time of the pulse and the instantaneous power of the transmitter varies. The main
advantage of PWM is that power loss in the switching devices is very low.
Pulse Position Modulation:-In this modulation, the position of the pulse of
carrier signal is varied in accordance with the instantaneous value of message or
modulating signal. The final signal is called pulse position modulated signal. In
PPM the bandwidth of the transmission channel depends on rising time of the
pulse. In PPM the noise interference is minimum & the instantaneous power of
the transmitter remains constant.

is represented as a binary code. The analog signal is first sampled according to
the Nyquist criteria. It states that for faithful reproduction of the limited signal,
the sampling rate must be at least twice the highest frequency component
present in the signal. Sampling Frequency ≥ 2fm
The sampled value is the allocated binary codes, which define a narrow range of
amplitude value. Each binary word defines particular amplitude level. The
sampled value is then approximated to the nearest amplitude level. The sample
is then assigned a code corresponding to the amplitude level, which is then
transmitted. The process is called as Quantization and it is generally carried out
by A/D converter.

THEORY:-
DELTA MODULATION:-
Delta modulation is a process of digital modulation technique developed after
pulse code modulation. In this scheme, at each sampling time say the kth
sampling time & (k-1)th
the difference b/w the sample value at sampling time k
and the sampling time (k-1) is encoded into just a single bit i.e. at each sampling
time.
OPERATION OF DELTA MODULATOR:–
The analog signal which is to be encoded into digital data is applied to the input
of the voltage comparator which compares it with its previous value & assigns a
single bit 1 or 0 according to incoming signal.
DISADVANTAGE OF DELTA MODULATION:- Delta modulation is
limited due to following 2 drawbacks:-
NOISE:-
Noise is defined as average unwanted unpredictable random wave form
accompanying signal wherever the signal is received at the receiver by any
communication channel or medium which is always accompanied by noise.
DISTORTION:–
Distortion means that the receiver receives the O/P which is not the exact replica
of the analog I/P signal transmitted at the transmitter.

DISTORTION IN DELTA MODULATION OCCURS DUE TO
FOLLOWING CASES: -
As it has been discussed that, when the analog signal is greater than the
integrator o/p the integrator ramps up to meet the analog signal. The ramping
rate of integrator change of analog i/p is faster than the ramping rate of the
modulator which is unable to catch up with information signal, this causes a
large disparity b/w the info signal & its quantized approximation. This
phenomenon is known as “Slope-Overloading” and causes the loss of rapidly
changing information.

THEORY:-
To transmit digital data from one place to another, we have to choose the
transmission medium. It can neither be directly sent through the transmission
medium nor over the antenna because the antenna of practical size works on
very high frequencies much higher than our data transmission rate. To be able to
transmit the data over antenna, we have to modulate the carrier signal‟s phase or
frequency or amplitude which is varied in accordance with the digital data. At
the receiver side, we separate the signal from modulated signal by the process of
„demodulation‟. Modulation also allows different data streams to be transmitted
over same channel. This process is called as „multplexing‟ & result is a
considerable saving of available bandwidth. Some of the basic digital
modulation techniques are ASK, PSK & FSK.
ASK (AMPLITUDE SHIFT KEYING):- The simplest method of modulating
a carrier with a data stream is to change the amplitude of the carrier wave at
every time the data changes. This modulation technique is known as “Amplitude
Shift Keying”. The simplest way of achieving amplitude shift keying is by
switching on the carrier whenever the data bit is „1‟ & switching off whenever
the data bit is „0‟. This technique is known as „On-Off Keying‟. Thus for
Data=1, carrier is transmitted and Data=0, carrier is suppressed.
The ASK wave from is generated by balanced modulator circuit which is also
known as a linear multiplier. We apply the digital data stream and carrier signal

to the inputs of linear multiplier. To demodulate the ASK waveform, we pass it
through the filter. Amplitude shift keying is less efficient because the inherent
noise in the transmission channel can deteriorate the signal so much that the
amplitude changes in the modulated carrier wave due to noise addition. This
may lead to the incorrect decoding at the receiver.

THEORY :-
Phase Shift keying involves the phase change of the carrier sine wave between
00 and 180
0 in accordance with the data stream to be transmitted. PSK is also
known as phase reversal keying (PRK). PSK modulator is very similar to ASK
modulator. Both use balanced modulator to multiply the carrier with the
modulating signal. But in contrast to ASK technique, the line coding technique
applied to the input sequence is bipolar. When the modulating signal is positive,
the output of modulator is a sine wave in phase with the carrier. When input is
negative voltage, the output of modulator will be sine wave shifted out of phase
by 1800 from the carrier input. The unipolar to bipolar converter converts the
unipolar data stream to bipolar data.
At receiver side, the square loop detector circuit is used to demodulate the PSK
signal. The incoming PSK signal with 00 & 180
0changes is first fed to the square
law device which multiplies the input by itself. The output of this block is a
signal of twice the frequency received. After that this signal is passed through a
BPF which blocks DC signal and passes higher frequency only. After that a
frequency divider circuit divides frequency and we get signal with same
frequency as received. This signal is applied to multiplier and then coherent
detection takes place.
