Eperiment - DSSC moduIution
PreIiminury discussion
DS8SC is o moduIofion sysfem simiIor buf differenf fo AM (which wos expIored in Experimenf
b).
Like AM, DS8SC uses o microphone or some ofher fronsducer fo converf speech ond music fo
on eIecfricoI signoI coIIed fhe messoge or bosebond signoI. The messoge signoI is fhen used fo
eIecfricoIIy vory fhe ompIifude of o pure sinewove coIIed fhe corrier. And Iike AM, fhe corrier
usuoIIy hos o frequency fhof is much higher fhon fhe messoge's frequency.
Figure I beIow shows o simpIe messoge signoI ond on unmoduIofed corrier. If oIso shows fhe
resuIf of moduIofing fhe corrier wifh fhe messoge using DS8SC.
Figure 1
Experimenf o - DS8SC moduIofion Z008 Emono Insfrumenfs o-3
So for, fhere doesn'f oppeor fo be much difference befween AM ond DS8SC. However,
consider Figure Z beIow. If is fhe DS8SC signoI of fhe boffom of Figure I buf wifh doffed Iines
odded fo frock fhe signoI's enveIopes (fhof is, ifs posifive peoks ond negofive peoks). If you
Iook of fhe enveIopes cIoseIy you'II nofice fhof fhey're nof fhe some shope os fhe messoge os is
fhe cose wifh AM (see Experimenf b poge b-3 for on exompIe).
Figure Z
Insfeod, oIfernofing hoIves of fhe enveIopes form fhe some shope os fhe messoge os shown in
Figure 3 beIow.
Figure 3
Z008 Emono Insfrumenfs Experimenf o - DS8SC moduIofion o-4
Anofher woy fhof DS8SC is differenf fo AM con be undersfood by considering fhe
mofhemoficoI modeI fhof defines fhe DS8SC signoI:
DS8SC ~ fhe messoge fhe corrier
Do you see fhe difference befween fhe equofions for AM ond DS8SC7 If nof, Iook of fhe AM
equofion in Experimenf b (poge b-3).
When fhe messoge is o simpIe sinewove (Iike in Figure I) fhe equofion's soIufion (which
necessoriIy invoIves some frigonomefry) feIIs us fhof fhe DS8SC signoI consisfs of fwo
sinewoves:
One wifh o frequency equoI fo fhe sum of fhe corrier ond messoge frequencies
One wifh o frequency equoI fo fhe difference befween fhe corrier ond messoge
frequencies
ImporfonfIy, fhe DS8SC signoI doesn'f confoin o sinewove of fhe corrier frequency. This is on
imporfonf difference befween DS8SC ond AM.
Thof soid, os fhe soIufion fo fhe equofion shows, DS8SC is fhe some os AM in fhof o poir of
sinewoves is generofed for every sinewove in fhe messoge. And, Iike AM, one is higher fhon fhe
unmoduIofed corrier's frequency ond fhe ofher is Iower. As messoge signoIs such os speech ond
music ore mode up of fhousonds of sinewoves, fhousonds of poirs of sinewoves ore generofed in
fhe DS8SC signoI fhof sif on eifher side of fhe corrier frequency. These fwo groups ore coIIed
fhe sidebonds.
So, fhe presence of bofh sidebonds buf fhe obsence of fhe corrier gives us fhe nome of fhis
moduIofion mefhod - doubIe-sidebond, suppressed corrier (DS8SC).
The corrier in AM mokes up of Ieosf oo7 of fhe signoI's power buf if doesn'f confoin ony porf
of fhe originoI messoge ond is onIy needed for funing. So by nof sending fhe corrier, DS8SC
offers o subsfonfioI power soving over AM ond is ifs moin odvonfoge.
