Amplitude Modulators • There are two types of amplitude modulators. They are low-level and high-level modulators. • Low-level modulators generate AM with small signals and must be amplified before transmission. • High-level modulators produce AM at high power levels, usually in the final amplifier stage of a transmitter. • Modulators are class C amplifiers and at output tank circuit.
Low level AM Transmitter 540KHz to 1640KHz
540KHz to 1640KHz modulator
Amplifier Classes Class A - bias point is set so that the amplifier conducts through a complete cycle (360 deg) of the input waveform. This class has low efficiency (~35%) but high linearity. Class AB - bias point is set so that the amplifier conducts through at least 180 deg but less than 360deg of the input waveform. This class has better efficiency (~55%) but lower linearity. Class B - bias point is set so that the amplifier conducts through a half cycle (180 deg) of the input waveform. This class has higher efficiency (~60%),but poor linearity. Class C - bias point is set so that the amplifier conducts through less than 180 deg of the input waveform. This class has higher efficiency (~70%), but even poorer linearity

Advantages of DSBFC = 1.Transmitters are less complex 2.Receivers are simple, detection is easy. 3.Cost efficient. Disadvantages = 1.Power wastage - carrier doesn’t carry any information and USB & LSB contains same information. 2. Needs larger Bandwidth 3. Gets affected by noise.

This technique can be used at relatively low carrier frequencies. At high frequencies, the Q of the filter becomes unacceptably high. The required Q necessary to filter off one of the sidebands can be approximated by:

Important points= • Sharp cutoff Filters are not required • Freq Up conversion is not required • Easy to switch between sidebands. Simply change the oscillator position. • Designing a phase shift network for AF range is dificult.
