AM MODULATION AND DEMODULATION

Mod : FT – An001

The AM Modulation Trainer is designed to help students and professionals understand the fundamentals of amplitude modulation (AM), a key technique in communication systems. This trainer provides hands-on experience with generating and observing AM signals by combining a carrier signal with an information signal. Users can explore concepts such as modulation index, band width, and demodulation, making it ideal for those studying telecommunications, electronics, and radio-frequency engineering. By observing how audio or data signals are transmitted over long distances using AM, learners gain practical insights into signal transmission and broadcasting.
