Single Sideband: A brief, if not oversimplified, explanation of Single Sideband will help in understanding the transmission process. To begin, we must review some basic transmission processes. The physical length of the antenna must equal the wavelength of the transmitted signal, usually … (Read More)

Define Suppression of Carrier: Three main systems are employed for the generation of SSB; the filter method, the phase cancellation method and the “third method.” They differ from one another in the way of suppressing the unwanted sideband, but all use … (Read More)

Methods of Suppressing Unwanted Sidebands: As stated earlier, the three practical methods of SSB generation all use the balanced modulator to suppress the carrier, but each uses a different method of removing the unwanted sideband. All three systems will remove either … (Read More)

Extensions of Single Sideband Amplitude Modulation: The Extensions of Single Sideband Amplitude Modulation is namely, Forms of Amplitude Modulation: This section on amplitude modulation defines, describes and lists the main applications of the various forms of AM used for telephony and TV, particularly the … (Read More)
