importance of high percentage modulation

What is the Importance of High Percentage Modulation? It is important to use as high a percentage modulation as possible while ensuring that overmodulation does not occur. The sidebands contain the information and have maximum power at 100% modulation. For example, if 50% modulation were used, the sideband amplitudes are ¼ the carrier amplitude, and since power is proportional to E2, we have (¼)2, or 1/16 the carrier power. Thus, total sideband power is now 1/16 x 1 kW x 2, or 125 W. The actual transmitted intelligence is thus…

percentage modulation determination

It was determined that an increase in intelligence amplitude resulted in an AM signal with larger maximums and smaller minimums. It is helpful to have a mathematical relationship between the relative amplitude of the carrier and intelligence signals. The percentage modulation provides this, and it is a measure of the extent to which a carrier voltage is varied by intelligence. The percentage modulation is also referred to as modulation index or modulation factor, and they are symbolized by m. Figure 1 illustrates the two most common methods for determining percentage…
