To solve the problem of how many AM broadcast stations can be accommodated in a 100 kHz bandwidth with a highest modulating frequency of 5 kHz, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the concept of bandwidth in AM broadcasting In AM (Amplitude Modulation) broadcasting, the bandwidth required for a single station is determined by the highest modulating frequency. The total bandwidth for an AM signal is given by: \[ \text{Bandwidth} = 2 \times f_m \] where \( f_m \) is the highest modulating frequency. ### Step 2: Calculate the bandwidth required for one AM station ...

Both amplitude modulation (AM) and frequency modulation (FM) are used for radio broadcasting. The amplitude of the high frequency carrier wave is varied or modulated in accordance with the variations in the amplitude of the audio signals that are to be transmitted, in te process of amplitude modulation in frequency modulation te amplitude of the carrier remains constant but its frequency is varied inn accordance withh the audio signal. Reception with AM signals is in general is affected by interference of various kinds ad elaborated equipment is required for FM broadcast. In india the radio signals are boarcast using-
