AMPLITUDE MODULATION -(next part-1)
Firstly, let's have a look at what radio transmission is really all about. It’s fine to have a microphone to speak into and expect to be heard somewhere else in the world, however what are the real principles involved. This does not apply just to amplitude modulation but to all types of modulation.
Modulation - in radio communications means combining signals, one of which is normally the information we want to transmit (which is usually a low frequency such as audio orvoice), with a radio frequency
Radio communication uses the ability of an electromagnetic wave (or if you like electromagnetic energy) to transfer information from one point to another.It is very easy to create anelectromagnetic wave, send this wave to an antenna, and have this wave propagate over a long distance at the speed of light.It's another matter to have the electromagnetic wave contain useful information such as voice, or some other form of intelligence, which after all is the main objective of radio communication.
Remember that electromagnetic radiation takes many forms. Light is electromagnetic radiation.The infrared signal from your TV remote control is electromagnetic radiation.The heat given off by a bar radiator is electromagnetic radiation.The whole secret of radio
communication is to place information onto the signal, to convey intelligence or a message from one point to another. ............
