EE331 Lab: Double Sideband AM Waveforms

This document describes Laboratory #01 which aims to generate double sideband amplitude modulation waveforms using an oscilloscope and spectrum analyzer. It introduces the objectives of generating AM waveforms using circuit components and visualizing the signals in the time and frequency domains. It also investigates generating double sideband suppressed carrier modulation by removing the carrier from an AM waveform. Calculations are shown to determine the percentage modulation of a sample waveform.

Objectives:
The main objective of this lab is to generate double sideband Amplitude Modulation and Waveforms
using Oscilloscope and Spectrum Analyzer.

Introduction:
Modern descriptions of analog communication schemes are mathematics based using
transform theory and block diagrams. This laboratory style leaves undergraduate students with
the challenge of relating these theories to real world circuit implementations. This is particularly
true if the lecture class does not have a complementary laboratory component. This paper
attempts to bridge this gap by presenting a basic yet comprehensive laboratory that can be used
to demonstrate amplitude modulation theory. It is specifically designed to stir the interest of
junior or senior level electronics minded electrical engineering students. In this laboratory, a
double sideband large carrier waveform is produced using a simple switching modulator circuit.
The resulting amplitude modulation (AM) waveform is generated as a result. This laboratory
requests that students perform a circuit simulation as well as an actual circuit implementation.
The circuit behavior is studied via both analysis using software tools and measurement using
hardware components. The laboratory further requires that the electrical signals are visualized in
both the time and frequency domain to enhance concept understanding. The paper outlines an
introduction to the modulation theory along with an overview of the necessary circuits and
concepts.
However, this experiment investigate the generation of Double Sideband amplitude modulated
(AM) waveforms, using the ANACOM 1/1 module. By removing the carrier from such an AM
waveform, the generation of Double Sideband Suppressed Carrier (DSBCS) AM is also
investigated.

Calculations;
Percentage Modulation = Vmax – Vmin X 100%
Vmax + Vmin
= 36.8mV - 32.8mV X 100%
36.8mV + 32.8mV
= 0.06mV x 100%
= 0.6 %
