You are asked to design a DSB-SC modulator to generate a modulated signal Am(t)cos(@t) with the carrier frequency f. = 300 kHz (@=2лx 300,000). The following equipment is available: (i) a cosine wave generator of frequency 100 kHz; (ii) a ring modulator; (iii) a bandpass filter with adjustable center frequency tunable from 100 kHz to 500 kHz; (iv) a message amplifier with settable gain. (a) Draw a block diagram of a system that will generate the desired signal, and explain how it works. (b) Specify the required center frequency of the bandpass filter. (c) If the modulator output is required to be 400m(t)cos(at), what should be the amplifier gain to be used on the input m(t) to obtain the desired output signal amplitude? (Hint: It is not 400.)

Question
You are asked to design a DSB-SC modulator to generate a modulated signal Am(t)cos(@t) with the
carrier frequency f. = 300 kHz (@2x 300,000). The following equipment is available: (i) a cosine
wave generator of frequency 100 kHz; (ii) a ring modulator; (iii) a bandpass filter with adjustable
center frequency tunable from 100 kHz to 500 kHz; (iv) a message amplifier with settable gain.
(a) Draw a block diagram of a system that will generate the desired signal, and explain how it works.
(b) Specify the required center frequency of the bandpass filter.
(c) If the modulator output is required to be 400m(t)cos(at), what should be the amplifier gain to be
used on the input m(t) to obtain the desired output signal amplitude? (Hint: It is not 400.)
