ThanhThe Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 Hi im just buy AD2 and im a newbie in this and still learning about this project im working on How to set up Amplitude modulation in WaveForms using wavegen, scope and spectrum Can anyone teach me this, im new to this and trying learning Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAQman Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 Generating an AM signal is simple. Start with a new workspace. Add a Wavegen instrument and configure it for Modulation, as shown. Set the Carrier frequency to 1 MHz. Turn off the FM channel. Configure the AM channel to be a Triangle wave at 10 kHz, as shown. Demodulation can be done with a lock-in amplifier. Add a Scope instrument and enable Scope-1. Physically connect Scope-1 to the Wavegen channel in a loopback fashion. Start both the Wavegen Channel and the Scope. To demodulate the AM signal, add a Lock-In amplifier and configure it, as shown. Next, add a second Math channel; select Simple instead of the Lock-In amplifier. Set the channel on the Simple math channel to M1. Set the operation to AC, and it will extract the AC signal from the first Math channel. The 10 kHz triangle wave is extracted from the 1 MHz Carrier wave using the Lock-In amplifier and a Simple AC math channel. Much more information can be found in the Waveforms Help.

Thank you so much for your information can i have one more question is FM demodulation can do exact like the AM demolation or the other way ?

D@n Posted May 22 Share Posted May 22 FM and AM are very different. Here's an example FM demod, whereas you can find an example AM demod here. (Both are written in Verilog, for use in an FPGA.) In the FM case, I used a PLL to track the FM carrier, and then used the phase difference between one sample and the next as my FM output. After some more filtering, this differential PLL step then became the output of the demod. Dan ThanhThe 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
