Modulation is the phenomenon of superimposing the low audio frequency base band message or information signals ( called the modulation signals) on a high frequency wave (called, the carrier wave). The resultant wave is called the modulated wave, which is transmitted. Read the above passage and answer the following questions: (i) What are the Audio Frequency and Radio Frequency ranges? (ii) Why audio frequency signals, as such cannot be transmitted over long distance? (iii) What does the phenomemom imply in day to day life ?

The process of changing the existing schemas to include new information is called

Assertion : The information contained in our original low frequency baseband signal is to be translated into high or radio frequencies before transmission. Reason: For transmitting a signal, the antenna should have a size comparable to the wav elength of the signal.

The process of translation requires transfer of genetic information from a polymer of nucleotides to a polymer of

Assertion: The process of retrieval of information from the carrier wave at the reciever is termed as modulation. Reason: Repeater helps to modulate the signals.

The efficient transmission of signals is achieved by superimposing electrical audio signals on a high frequency carrier wave (the process is known as modulation). When the amplitude of high frequency carrier wave is changed in accordance with the intensity of modulating signal, it is called amplitude modulation. The extent to which the amplitude of carrier wave is changed by the signal is described by modulation factor. It is given as m="Amplitude change of carrier wave"/"Amplitude of unmodulated carrier wave" Let a carrier wave is represented by V_c=V_c cos omega_ct Let the modulation factor be m, the maximum change in amplitude of carrier wave is mV_c So, modulating signal can be represented as v_m=mV_c cosomega_mt So, the amplitude of modulated wave is =V_c+mV_c cosomega_m t Using this value, the instantaneous voltage of modulated wave is E=V_c cos omega_c t+ (mV_c)/2 cos (omega_c+omega_m)t + (mV_c)/2 cos (omega_c-omega_m ) t The above wave contains three frequencies namely, f_c, f_c+f_m and f_c-f_m . The frequencies f_c+f_m and f_c-f_m are called side band frequencies , USB and LSB respectively. The fraction of total power carried by side band frequencies is
