Question : 8
Total: 8
Due to economic reasons, only the upper sideband of an AM wave is transmitted, but at the receiving station, there is a facility for generating the carrier. Show that if a device is available which can multiply two signals, then it is possible to recover the modulating signal at the receiver station.
Solution:  
Let, the received signal be A1 cos (ωc+ωm)t
The carrier signal available at the receiving station is Ac cos ωc t
Multiplying the two signals, we get A1Ac cos (ωc+ωm) t cos ωc t
=
A1A2
2
[cos(2ωc+ωm)t+cosωmt]
If this signal is passed through a low pass filter, we can recover the modulating signal
A1A2
2
cos ωmt
