1.5 Content
Principle of amplitude modulation
1.6 Units:
Amplitude modulation transmission and detection

Chapter 2: Content Analysis
We will link previous lesson which are parameters amplitude,
frequency and phase with this lesson because they have a related
between them. Then, we will link this lesson which is AM with
the next lesson which is FM.
2.1 Speaking without tongue

How can they speak each other without using tongue at the same
time they cannot understand the body language?
This example related to the modulation because in this example
you cannot talk without your tongue as well as modulation.

2.2 Modulation:
-Modulation Is one of the most important processes in
telecommunication.
-It enables transmission of the signals in long as well as in short
distance.
-It is used in early telecommunication systems
Telephony (FDM)
Radio Broadcasting (AM, FM)
TV Broadcasting
It is used in modern communication systems
- wireless communication systems
Mobile Cellular Network
WLAN, WiMAN
- XDSL
- Cable modem
- Optical communication Systems
- internet
2.3 What is modulation
Modulation is the process of modifying one of the parameters of
a signal, called carrier according to the message signal.
2.4 Why we use it
1. Ease of radiation
- If we wish to throw a piece of paper (baseband signal),
it cannot go too far by itself.
- By wrapping it around a stone (carrier), it can be
thrown over a longer distance.

2. At the same time transmission of several signals
- FDM (Frequency Division Multiplying) uses analog
modulation
- TDM (Time Division Multiplying ) uses pulse
modulation
2.5 Types of modulation:
Depending on the type of the message signal and on the type of
the carrier signal, modulations are grouped into the following
types:
Analog modulation
Digital modulation
Pulse modulation (modulation) Liner coding
2.6 Analog modulation
Message signal is analog
Carrier signal is a sinusoidal
Types of the analog modulation:
AM (Amplitude Modulation)
FM (Frequency Modulation)
PM (Phase Modulation)
Analog modulation is the process of modifying one of the
parameters of a sinusoidal signal, called carrier, according to
variation in the amplitude of message signal.
The carrier signal has a higher frequency than the message
signal.
The spectrum of the message signal is transferred into the
higher- frequency band.

(ICT-TE-7)





Demodulation is the process of extracting the message signal
from the modulated signal.

2.7 Amplitude modulation
Amplitude modulation (AM) is a modulation technique used in
electronic communication, most commonly for transmitting
information via a radio carrier wave. The amplitude of the
carrier signal is varied according to the message signal. The
frequency of the modulated signal remains same as the carrier
frequency.
Consider a carrier wave (sine wave) of frequency f
c
and
amplitude A given by:


Types of AM
AM (Double Side Band with Carrier
DSB-AM (Double Side Band Suppressed Carrier DSBC)
- BW = 2W = 2*BW of the message signal
SSB-AM (Single Side Band AM)
5/5/2014 VP9 Teaching unit

(ICT-TE-7)

- BW = W
VSB-AM (Vestigial Side Band AM)
- BW = W 2W


Advantage and disadvantage
Advantage:
- One of the most advantage of the amplitude
modulation is able to transmit a message on long
distance.


Disadvantage:
One of the most disadvantage of all amplitude modulation
techniques (not only standard AM) is that the receiver
amplifies and detects noise and electromagnetic
interference in equal proportion to the signal. For this
reason AM broadcast is not favored for music and high
fidelity broadcasting, but rather for voice communications
and broadcasts (sports, news, talk radio etc.).

Chapter 3: Didactic Analysis
3.1 Didactic Principle of Reduction,
Motivation and Methodological change
First, we would like to make our lesson sample and this way
called didactic principle of reduction. That means Horizontal
which we will make my lesson easy. Second, we will skips
some information because our lesson is 15 hours and we am
going to make it in 120 minutes and this is called Vertical. Then,
we will start my lesson for giving the students example on
power point for daily life in a problem this is called (Inductive
approach). Next, we will use didactic principle of methodical
change by using the action form like lecture, case study and
classroom conversation by using the social work like individual,
partner and so on.
3.2 Didactic Principle of Vividness:
In the begging of my lesson we show the students a picture with
question on it. Then, we will ask them what do you think about
these picture and the question? After that, we will explain to
them the picture this is the first part. At the next part of my
lesson we will explain the second part by using small
whiteboard that you can anyone carry it with different colors to
make it very clear and easy to understand it. The last part we
will show them a short video and we will repeat the video twice
time, in the first time the video will keep going and the second
time we will separate the video with explanation to make it easy
for the students.

3.3 Didactic Principle of Self activity and
Vividness:
Next, in the middle of our lesson we will divide the students in 3
groups work. Then, we give each group one big sheet with
marker to write on it but before that, we will make each group
searches about the types of the AM and one of the advantage
and one of the disadvantage. Then, we will make each group
explains about the advantage and disadvantage of the AM. And
this way is motivated the students and also is good to change the
methods.
3.4 Didactic Principle of securing
Information:
In the last my lesson we will secure the lesson to give the
students homework about what we did in the all our lesson and
we will add a special question to think about it which is about
the next lesson. This way is to ensure the students prepare the
next lesson to make it easy for them.
