Explain SNR in Amplitude Modulation?

Amplitude Modulation provides an effective means for sending a bandlimited signal from one place to another. For wireline channels, using baseband or amplitude modulation makes little difference in terms of signal-to-noise ratio. For wireless channels, amplitude modulation is the only alternative. The one AM parameter that does not affect signal-to-noise ratio is the carrier frequency.
