44 Determine the modulation factor and percent modulation of the AM wave which produces the trapezoidal pattern shown in Fig. 3-24. Ans. 0.7143,71.43% Fig. 3-24
To determine the modulation factor and percent modulation of the AM wave based on the given figures (9 cm and 1.5 cm), let's go through the calculations step by step.
1. Modulation Factor (m):
The modulation factor represents the peak deviation of the carrier wave from its unmodulated level. It is calculated as the ratio of the peak amplitude of the modulating signal to the peak amplitude of the carrier signal.
