Starting setup values for AM, FM, and DSB modulation:
Use Tektronix Model 360 oscilloscope.
Amplitude Modulation (AM)
- Oscilloscope setup preset #4
- sine wave modulated by sine wave
- fmod = 100 hz; amplitude small
- fcar = 2000 hz; amplitude large
Frequency Modulation (FM)
- Oscilloscope setup preset #5
- sine wave modulated by sawtooth wave
- fmod = 1 hz; amplitude midrange
- fcar = 2000 hz; amplitude midrange
- NOTE: The image on the preceeding page shows a 2000 hz sine wave modulated by a 100 hz square wave.)
Double sideband Modulation (DSB) or Ring Modulation
- Oscilloscope setup preset #6
- sine wave modulated by sine wave
- fmod = 100 hz; amplitude large
- fcar = 2000 hz; amplitude large
