Calculate the modulation index and percentage of modulation of an AM signal, given the amplitudes of the carrier and modulating signals.
Define overmodulation and explain how to alleviate its effects.
Explain how the power in an AM signal is distributed between the carrier and the sideband, and then compute the carrier and sideband powers, given the percentage of modulation.
Compute sideband frequencies, given carrier and modulating signal frequencies.
Compare time-domain, frequency-domain, and phasor representations of an AM signal.
Explain what is meant by the terms DSB and SSB and state the main advantages of an SSB signal over a conventional AM signal.
Calculate peak envelope power (PEP), given signal voltages and load impedances.
