Total Current of AM Wave Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Total Current of AM Wave = Carrier Current*sqrt(1+((Modulation Index^2)/2))
i_t = I_c*sqrt(1+((μ^2)/2))
This formula uses 1 Functions, 3 Variables

Functions Used

sqrt - A square root function is a function that takes a non-negative number as an input and returns the square root of the given input number., sqrt(Number)

Variables Used

Total Current of AM Wave - (Measured in Ampere) - Total Current of AM Wave is the sum of the modulating signal's current and the carrier wave's current.
Carrier Current - (Measured in Ampere) - Carrier current is the current which employs guided low-power radio-frequency signals, which are transmitted along electrical conductors.
Modulation Index - Modulation Index states the level of modulation that a carrier wave undergoes.

How are Current Relations derived for Single Tone AM Wave?

In AM it is generally more convenient to measure the AM transmitter current than the power. In this case, the modulation index may be calculated from the values of unmodulated and modulated currents in the AM transmitter. Let Ic be the r.m.s. value of the carrier or unmodulated current and It be the r.m.s. value of the total or modulated current of an AM transmitter. For a single-tone modulation the power relation is given by
Pt = Pc(1+μ^2/2).
In the final step write power in terms of current. Thus we obtain Current Relations for Single-tone AM Wave.
