    Balanced Modulator and Demodulator (DSB-SC)

    Aim:
    1. To generate DSB-SC AM Signal using balanced modulator.
    2. To demodulate DSB-SC AM Signal using synchronous demodulator.

    Apparatus:

    ARK Instruments kit – Balanced Modulator and Synchronous Detector ( IC MC 1496 ) ,


    digital multimeter, Cathode Ray Oscilloscope , function generator, connecting wires and power
    supply.

    Theory:
    Balanced Modulator
    To produce Double Sideband Suppressed Carrier (DSBSC) signal a balanced modulator is used.
    Here two AM modulators are used and in them the message signal is provided of the same
    magnitude but of opposite sign and the carrier wave produced by the AM modulator is also passes
    as an input to both. These two modulators are arranged in balanced configuration to suppress the
    carrier signal. Hence, it is said to be a balanced modulator. The block diagram for the same is:

    Figure 1 -Block Diagram of Balanced Modulator


    We get the DSBSC wave s(t) by subtracting S2(t) from S1(t). The summer block is used to perform
    this operation. s1(t) with positive sign and s2(t) with negative sign are applied as inputs to summer
    block. Thus, the summer block produces an output s(t) which is the difference of s1(t) and s2(t).We
    get the output as : s(t)=2Ackam(t)cos(2πfct)

    We know the standard equation of DSBSC wave : s(t)=Acm(t)cos(2πfct)

    By comparing the output of summer block with the standard equation of DSBSC wave, we will get
    the scaling factor as 2ka.

    Synchronized Demodulator
    Here for the process of extracting the original message signal from DSBSC wave a coherent
    demodulator is used. Here, the same carrier signal (which is used for generating DSBSC signal) is
    used to detect the message signal. Hence, this process of detection is called
    as coherent or synchronous detection. Following is the block diagram of the coherent detector:

    In this process, the message signal can be extracted from DSBSC wave by multiplying it
    with a carrier, having the same frequency and the phase of the carrier used in DSBSC
    modulation. The resulting signal is then passed through a Low Pass Filter. Output of this
    filter is the desired message signal.

    The demodulated signal amplitude will be maximum, when ϕ=0 o. That’s why the local
    oscillator signal and the carrier signal should be in phase, i.e., there should not be any
    phase difference between these two signals. The demodulated signal amplitude will be
    zero, when ϕ=±90o. This effect is called as quadrature null effect.

    CONCLUSION:
    • We were able to understand the circuit and the need of the balanced modulator and
    synchronized demodulator to suppress the carrier signal and its working with the
    help of the block diagram and the mathematical equations.
    • We understood the concept of double side band-suppressed carrier signal and its
    advantages in power saving.
    • With the help of the waveforms, we were able to observe and analyze the
    information signal, carrier signal, the modulated (DSBSC) signal and the
    demodulated signal.
    • The demodulated signal was found to be attenuated as compared to the information
    signal.
