Hello,
To calculate the total power in the AM wave and power in each sideband, we can use the following formulas:
1. Total Power (Pt) = Carrier Power (Pc) x [1 + (μ^2)/2]
where μ is the modulation index (80% in this case)
1. Power in each sideband (Ps) = (μ^2/4) x Pc
Given:
Pc = 500 W (carrier power)
μ = 0.8 (modulation index)
Calculations:
1. Total Power (Pt) = 500 x [1 + (0.8^2)/2]
= 500 x [1 + 0.64/2]
= 500 x 1.32
= 660 W
2. Power in each sideband (Ps) = (0.8^2/4) x 500
= (0.64/4) x 500
= 0.16 x 500
= 80 W
So, the total power in the AM wave is 660 W, and the power in each sideband is 80 W.
Hope this helps,
Thank you
