Total Power of AM wave Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Total Power = Carrier Power+Upper Sideband Power+Lower Sideband Power
P_t = P_c+P_usb+P_lsb
This formula uses 4 Variables

Variables Used

Total Power - (Measured in Watt) - Total Power is the amount of energy liberated per second in an analog signal.
Carrier Power - (Measured in Watt) - Carrier Power is the power dissipated by a carrier modulating wave.
Upper Sideband Power - (Measured in Watt) - Upper Sideband Power is a type of radio communication in which the carrier frequency is placed above audio frequency, allowing for higher data transmission rates.
Lower Sideband Power - (Measured in Watt) - Lower sideband power is the power which is lower than the carrier power during the modulation process.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Carrier Power: 1.156 Watt --> 1.156 Watt No Conversion Required

What can be observe from the power relation of AM wave?

We can observe from the expression of AM wave that the carrier component of the amplitude modulated wave has the same amplitude as unmodulated carrier.
In addition to carrier component , the modulated wave consists of two sideband components. It means that the modulated wave contains more power than the unmodulated carrier.
However, since the amplitudes of two sidebands depend upon the modulation index, it may be anticipated that the total power of the amplitude modulated wave would depend upon the modulation index also. In this section, we shall find the power contents of the carrier and the sidebands.

How to Calculate Total Power of AM wave?

Total Power of AM wave calculator uses Total Power = Carrier Power+Upper Sideband Power+Lower Sideband Power to calculate the Total Power, Total Power of AM wave is equal to the sum of power of the carrier and powers in the two sidebands, i.e upper sideband, and lower sideband frequency components. Total Power is denoted by P_t symbol.

How to calculate Total Power of AM wave using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Total Power of AM wave, enter Carrier Power (P_c), Upper Sideband Power (P_usb) & Lower Sideband Power (P_lsb) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Total Power of AM wave calculation can be explained with given input values -> 1.56754 = 1.156+0.037+0.37454.

FAQ

What is Total Power of AM wave?

Total Power of AM wave is equal to the sum of power of the carrier and powers in the two sidebands, i.e upper sideband, and lower sideband frequency components and is represented as P_t = P_c+P_usb+P_lsb or Total Power = Carrier Power+Upper Sideband Power+Lower Sideband Power. Carrier Power is the power dissipated by a carrier modulating wave, Upper Sideband Power is a type of radio communication in which the carrier frequency is placed above audio frequency, allowing for higher data transmission rates & Lower sideband power is the power which is lower than the carrier power during the modulation process.
