Exercise
1- Refer to the Matlab code above (Synchronous Modulation)
a) From this code
A = Em1*sin(2*pi*fm1*t) + Em2*sin(2*pi*fm2*t) +
Em3*sin(2*pi*fm3*t);
m = A.*[sin(2*pi*fc*t)];
What is A, m and sin(2*pi*fc*t)]?
A is addition of 3 messages signal
M is the modulation of message signal with the carrier signal
sin(2*pi*fc*t)]? Is the carrier signal
b) What is the frequency for all message signal?
100+200+300 = 600
c) What is the amplitude for carrier frequency?
2-40
d) When you change the carrier amplitude to 2 and 40. What do you see? Explain.
When the amplitude of carrier signal is changed from 2 to 40, the modulated signal
amplitude increase. It is because amplitude modulation is the process of changing the
amplitude of a relatively high frequency carrier signal in proportion with the
instantaneous value of the message signal.
e) What happen when you set the carrier frequency to 100, fc=100.?
When the carrier frequency is set to 100, the shape or the envelope of carrier signal and
modulated signal are different from when the carrier frequency is set to 1000.

2- Why the DSB(Synchronous)-SC is consider more efficient than DSB(Asynchronous)-AM?

DSB(Synchronous)-SC is consider more efficient than DSB(Asynchronous)-AM because
DSBSC produces sum(fusb) and difference(flsb) frequencies but cancel out the carrier(fc).
As the result, it helps in reducing the total transmitted power that taken up by carrier.
