Intermediate Frequency

Go Intermediate Frequency = (Local Oscillation Frequency-Received Signal Frequency)

Transmission Efficiency with respect to Modulation Index

Go Transmission Efficiency of AM Wave = Modulation Index^2/(2+Modulation Index^2)

Image Frequency

Go Image Frequency = Received Signal Frequency+(2*Intermediate Frequency)

Crest Factor

Go Crest Factor = Peak Value of Signal/RMS Value of Signal

What are the different sources of noise in a superheterodyne receiver?

Noise is an inherent limitation in any electronic system, and superheterodyne receivers are no exception. Noise can degrade the quality of the received signal, making it difficult to demodulate and extract the desired information. In a superheterodyne receiver, several sources contribute to the overall noise figure, which is a measure of the receiver's sensitivity and ability to amplify weak signals without introducing excessive noise.

How to Calculate Noise Figure of Superheterodyne Receiver?

Noise Figure of Superheterodyne Receiver calculator uses Noise Figure = 1/Figure of Merit to calculate the Noise Figure, The Noise Figure of Superheterodyne Receiver is defined as a measure of the degradation in signal-to-noise ratio caused by the receiver's internal noise. Noise Figure is denoted by F symbol.

How to calculate Noise Figure of Superheterodyne Receiver using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Noise Figure of Superheterodyne Receiver, enter Figure of Merit (FOM) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Noise Figure of Superheterodyne Receiver calculation can be explained with given input values -> 25 = 1/0.04.
