| In this lab activity we will use [[http://www.analog.com/en/design-center/evaluation-hardware-and-software/evaluation-boards-kits/adalm2000.html|ADALM2000]] and [[university:tools:m2k:scopy|Scopy]] to introduce envelope detection and amplitude modulation. The signal's envelope is equivalent to its outline, and an envelope detector connects all the peaks in this signal. Envelope detection has numerous applications in the fields of signal processing and communications, one of which is amplitude modulation (AM) detection. | In this lab activity we will use [[adi>en/design-center/evaluation-hardware-and-software/evaluation-boards-kits/adalm2000.html|ADALM2000]] and [[university:tools:m2k:scopy|Scopy]] to introduce envelope detection and amplitude modulation.

| Amplitude modulation (AM) is a modulation technique used in electronic communication, most commonly for transmitting information via a radio carrier wave. In amplitude modulation, the amplitude (signal strength) of the carrier wave is varied in proportion to the waveform being transmitted. That waveform may, for instance, correspond to the sounds to be reproduced by a loudspeaker, or the light intensity of television pixels. | Amplitude modulation (AM) is a modulation technique used in electronic communication, most commonly for transmitting information via a radio carrier wave.

| To generate the AM signal use the math function from the Scopy signal generator. Set the main frequency to 100Hz and apply the following function: //(1+0.5*cos(t))*3*cos(100*t)//. The generated waveform is presented in Figure 3. | To generate the AM signal use the math function from the Scopy signal generator. Set the record length to 20ms, the sample rate to 75MSPS and apply the following function: //(1+0.5*cos(2*pi*100*t))*3*cos(2*pi*100*100*t)//. The generated waveform is presented in Figure 3. |
