Envelope DetectionEnvelope Detection
An envelope detector is used to detect the envelope of the modulated waveform. Any circuit whose output follows the envelope of thecircuit whose output follows the envelope of the input signal waveform will serve as an envelope detector.
The simplest form of an envelope detector is a nonlinear charging circuit with a fast charge time and a slow discharge time.
On the positive half cycles of the input signal, the diode is forwarded biased and the capacitorthe diode is forwarded-biased and the capacitor C charges to the peak value of the input signal waveform. As the input signal falls below this value, the diode is turned off. The capacitor slowly discharges through the resistor R until theslowly discharges through the resistor R until the next positive half-cycle. When the input signal becomes greater than the capacitor voltage and the diode will conduct again and the process is repeated

Double Sideband-Suppressed Carrier, DSB-SC
Product modulator is used to generate DSB-SC modulated wave. Themodulated signal s(t) undergoes a phrase reversal whenever the message signalm(t) crosses zero, as indicated in Fig. 3-10b. The envelope of a DSB-SCm(t) crosses zero, as indicated in Fig. 3 10b. The envelope of a DSB SCmodulated signal is therefore different from the message signal m(t), whichmeans that envelope detection is not applicable to retrieve m(t).

The only advantage for DSB-SC is saving transmitted power. The Amplitudemodulation is using DSB-LC. The demodulator is more complex for DSB-SCthan the envelope detector for DSB-LC.

Coherent Detection
The demodulation of a DSB-SC signal is under the assumption that the localoscillator of the receiver is exactly coherent or synchronized, in bothfrequency and phase, with the modulated signal.

Costas Receiver
This receiver consists of two coherent detectors supplied with the sameinput signal, Ac cos (2π fc t) m(t), but with two local oscillator signals thatare in phase quadrature with respect to each other.
Suppose the local oscillator drifts from its proper value by a small angle φradians. The I-channel output is proportional to cos φ and cos φ ≈ 1 forsmall φ. The Q-channel output will have the same polarity as the I-channeloutput for one direction of local oscillator phase driftφ and the oppositepolarity for the opposite direction of φ.
By combining the I- and Q-channel outputs in a phase discriminator (whichconsists of a multiplier followed by a time-averaging unit), a dc controlsignal proportional to the phase drift φ is generated. With negative feedbackacting around the Costas receiver, the control signal tends to automaticallycorrect for the local phase error φ in the voltage-controlled oscillator.correct for the local phase error φ in the voltage controlled oscillator.

Frequency Discrimination Method for SSB
The SSB modulator of Fig. 3.19 consists of two components: productmodulator followed by a band-pass filter (BPF). The product modulatorproduces a DSB-SC modulated wave with an upper sideband and a lowersideband. The BPF is designed to transmit one of these two sidebands,depending on whether the USB or LSB is the desired modulation.

Frequency Discrimination Method for SSB
For the design of the BPF to be practically feasible, there must be a certain separation between the two sidebands that is wide enough to accommodate theseparation between the two sidebands that is wide enough to accommodate the transition band of the BPF. The separation is equal to 2fa, where fa is the lowest frequency component of the message signal, as shown in Fig. 3.18. This requirement limits the applicability of SSB modulation to speech signals for

Vestigial Sideband (VSB) Modulation
SSB modulation works well with speech signal that has an energy gap centeredaround zero frequency. For wideband signal like television transmission signalwill benefit by not using double sidebands, and SSB will make it impossible toimplement.
The television transmission, 525 lines of video information are sent in 1/30 (30frames per second) of a second (that is, 15,750 lines per second – thehorizontal trace frequency). Allowing time for retrace and synchronization, thisrequires a minimum video bandwidth of 4 MHz to transmit an array of pictureelements.

Vestigial Sideband (VSB) Modulation
VSB modulation overcomes two of the difficulties present in SSB modulation.By allowing a portion of the unwanted sideband to appear at the output of anSSB modulator, the design of the sideband filter is simplified since the sharpcut-off at the carrier frequency is not required. The bandwidth of a VSBmodulated signal is defined by BT = fv + W where fv is the vestigialbandwidth and W is the message bandwidth. The VSB bandwidth BTcompromises between the SSB bandwidth W and DSB-SC bandwidth 2Wcompromises between the SSB bandwidth, W, and DSB SC bandwidth, 2W.
Amplitude Modulation 32
Sideband Shaping Filter
In VSB modulation, only a portion of one sideband is transmitted in such away that the demodulation process reproduces the original signal. The partialsuppression of one sideband reduces the required bandwidth from that requiredfor DSB but does not match the spectrum efficiency of SSB. The spectrumshaping is defined by the transfer function of the filter, which is denoted byH( f ). The only requirement that the sideband shaping performed by H( f )must satisfy is that the transmitted vestige compensates for the spectral portionmust satisfy is that the transmitted vestige compensates for the spectral portionmissing from the other sideband.
The sideband shaping filter must satisfy the following condition:

The term H( f + fc ) is the positive-frequency part of the band-pass transferfunction H( f ) shifted to the left by fc, and H( f − fc ) is the negative-frequencypart of H( f ) shifted to the right by fc.

If the frequency error, Δf = fm , then the spectrum is inverted. The highfrequency spectral components will become the low frequency components andvice versa.
This spectral inversion scrambles the speech quite unintelligible and this can beused as a low-level speech scramblers to ensure communication privacy

Superheterodyne Receiver
Heterodyning means the translating or shifting in frequency. In the heterodynereceiver the incoming modulated signal is translated in frequency, thusoccupying an equal bandwidth centered about a new frequency. This newfrequency is known as an intermediate frequency (IF) which is fixed and is notdependent on the received signal frequency. The signal is amplified at the IFbefore demodulation. If the IF is lower than the received carrier frequency butabove the final output signal frequency it is called a superheterodyne receiverabove the final output signal frequency, it is called a superheterodyne receiver.

Superheterodyne Receiver
The intermediate frequency (IF) for most common AM broadcast receivers is455 KHz. AM band is from 540 KHz ~ 1600 KHz.
The required frequency translation to the IF is accomplished by mixing theThe required frequency translation to the IF is accomplished by mixing theincoming signal with a locally generated signal which differs from theincoming carrier by the IF (455 KHz). The received signal now translated to afixed IF, and it can be easily be amplified, filterer and demodulated. All theamplification and filtering is performed at a fixed frequency regardless ofstation selection.
The locally generated frequency is chosen to be 455 KHz higher than theincoming signal, because it is easier to build oscillators which are reasonablylinear within 1~2 MHz range than 0.1~1 MHz range (455 KHz lower than theincoming signal).
AM b d 540 KH 1600 KHAM band: 540 KHz ~ 1600 KHz
455 KHz higher than the incoming signal: ( 540 + 455) KHz ~ (1600 + 455) KHz
455 KHz lower than the incoming signal: (540 − 455) KHz ~ (1600 – 455) KHz

If there is another station broadcasting at ( f +2f ) KHz the signal will also beIf there is another station broadcasting at ( fc+2fIF ) KHz, the signal will also be mapped into the IF band. This signal is called the image frequency which is not the desired signal. This is the only drawback in superheterodyne receiver.

Dual Conversion Receiver
A telemetry receiver is designed to receive satellite transmissions at 136 MHz.The receiver uses two heterodyne operations with intermediate frequencies of30 MHz and 10 MHz The first local oscillator is designed to operate below the30 MHz and 10 MHz. The first local oscillator is designed to operate below theincoming carrier frequency; the second one, above the first (30 MHz)intermediate frequency. What possible input frequencies could result in imagesfor both mixers if the filters were not ideal?
Amplitude Modulation 43
Dual Conversion Receiver
The first local oscillator is operating at 136 MHz − 30 MHz = 106 MHz.
The other frequency of transmission @ 106 MHz − 30 MHz = 76 MHz willThe other frequency of transmission @ 106 MHz 30 MHz 76 MHz will also map to IF1.
The second local oscillator is operating at 30 MHz +10 MHz = 40 MHz.
If 40 MHz +10 MHz = 50 MHz is not attenuated significantly after passingIf 40 MHz +10 MHz = 50 MHz is not attenuated significantly after passing IF1, then the 50 MHz will also map to IF2. Then the possible image frequencies are:
106 − 40 = 56 MHz ; 106 − 30 = 76 MHz ; 106 + 50 = 156 MHz106 − 40 = 56 MHz ; 106 − 30 = 76 MHz ; 106 + 50 = 156 MHz
Check:• LO1=106 MHz, 106 −56 = 50 MHz. If this 50 MHz appears at the output of
IF it will also map to IF 50 40 = 10 MHzIF1, it will also map to IF2. 50 −40 = 10 MHz.• LO1=106 MHz, 106 −76 = 30 MHz. (IF1=30 MHz)• LO1=106 MHz, 156 −106 = 50 MHz. If this 50 MHz appears at the output
of IF1, it will also map to IF2, for 50 −40 = 10 MHz.
