LIMITATIONS:
1. Amplitude Modulation is wasteful of Power.
(sending a pilot along with the modulated wave).
2. Amplitude Modulation is wasteful of Bandwidth.
(necessary information is in a single sideband, but we
transmit both the sidebands).

• spectral contents
of both the signals
m1(t) and m2(t) are
same.
• QCM represents
two waveforms
modulated onto the
same carrier.
Amplitude Modulation
• Modulation:
1. Generate a DSB-SC modulated signal.
2. Eliminate any one sideband by using band-pass
filter for the other sideband.

• If f2 > f1 :
fl = f2 – f1
• If f1 > f2 :
fl = f1 – f2
