Low Level and High Level Modulation Block Diagram (AM Transmitter Block Diagram)
This post is about the generation of amplitude modulation. Here we will see two different ways of generating Amplitude Modulation (AM).
So the generation of amplitude modulation (AM) can be of following two types-
High level Amplitude Modulation
Watch the Complete Video Here-
Here we will understand the difference between these two types of techniques of generation of AM, with the help of block diagrams-
Now observe the image carefully-
This block diagram shows 3 main blocks-
#Low level AM modulator
#Wideband power amplifier and
#RF carrier oscillator
As you can see in the diagram that low level AM modulator has two inputs. At its first input we apply the modulating signal source (message signal) and it's second input is supplied by the RF carrier oscillator.
Since it is low level amplitude modulation therefore before applying the modulating signal to the low level AM modulator, we do not amplify it. In the same way, RF carrier is also not amplified.
Therefore you observe here that in low level AM modulation, neither the modulating signal nor the RF carrier is amplified before applying to low level AM modulator.

Slope Overload Distortion and Granular (Idle Noise), Quantization Noise in Delta Modulation
Slope Overload Distortion and Granular (Idle Noise)
Slope overload distortion and granular (idle noise) are the two major drawbacks of delta modulation.So here we are going to discuss both of these drawbacks of delta modulation-
Watch the Complete Video Here-
Slope Overload Distortion
This distortion is caused due to large dynamic range of the input signal. Because When the input signal rising rate is very high, then the staircase signal cannot approximate it correctly.So it creates large error between the original input signal X(t) and the staircase approximated signal. This noise (error) is known as slope overload distortion.
Solution of Slope Overload Distortion
The step size must be increased, when the input signal has high Slope. Therefore we use Adaptive Delta Modulation technique where the step size is increased when large dynamic variations are present in the signal X(t), to reduce the quantization errors present in delta modulation.Granular Noise (Idle Noise)
This noise (error) occurs when the step size is too large in comparison to small variations in the input signal.So because of large step size in comparison to the signal having very small variations or constant; error is introduced between the input signal and the approximated staircases signal. This error is known as the granular or idle noise.
Solution of the Granular Noise (Idle Noise)
We can overcome the problem of granular noise by keeping the step size small.We use this in adaptive delta modulation technique, where the step size is reduced as per the small signal value to reduce the difference between the signal and its approximation (staircase waveform).
Now observe the image shown below-
This image shows the quantisation errors in Delta modulation (slope overload distortion and granular noise).
Slope Overload Distortion and Granular Noise in Delta Modulation |
As you can see in the image that the shaded part in red color shows the slope overload distortion present in Delta modulation while the shaded region in green color represents the granular noise which is also known as idle noise. Both of these errors (noises) are quantization errors and are present in Delta modulation.

Frequency Translation/Frequency Mixing/Frequency Conversion/Heterodyning (Basic Concepts and Need)
In this post we will discuss, what is Frequency Translation. This is also known by other names like- Frequency Mixing, Frequency Conversion or Heterodyning.
Because the received signal translated to a fixed intermediate frequency (IF), can easily be Amplified, Filtered and Demodulated (Detected).
For example- in most commercial AM radio receivers, the received radio frequency (RF) signal is 560- 1640 kHz. But this is shifted to an Intermediate Frequency (IF) which is 455 kHz band, for the purpose of processing.
This is done because the received signal, that has been translated to a fixed intermediate frequency, easily be Amplified, Filtered and Demodulated.
The device which is used to perform this operation of frequency translation of the modulated wave is known as the "Frequency Mixer" and this process is also called as frequency conversion, frequency mixing or heterodyning.

What is Frequency Mixing (Frequency Conversion/ Heterodyning/Frequency Translation) and Why it is NEEDED?
It is generally required to translate or shift the modulated signal to a new band of frequency in the processing of signals in the communication systems.Because the received signal translated to a fixed intermediate frequency (IF), can easily be Amplified, Filtered and Demodulated (Detected).
For example- in most commercial AM radio receivers, the received radio frequency (RF) signal is 560- 1640 kHz. But this is shifted to an Intermediate Frequency (IF) which is 455 kHz band, for the purpose of processing.

Rules of Divisibility (Divisibility Rule for 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 and 11) with Examples
In this Post we will discuss Divisibility Rules for 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 and 11 in detail with the help of examples. So go through this post to clear all your concepts about rules of divisibility
For example- 12, 16, 286, 340 etc. are divisible by 2.
For example- 210, 156 etc. are divisible by 3, because sum of digits of both of these numbers is divisible by 3.
2 + 1 + 0= 3, which is divisible by 3
Similarly, 1 + 5 + 6 = 12, which is also divisible by 3.
So here we see that sum of digits of the number is divisible by 3 therefore the whole number is divisible by 3.
For example- 18232 is divisible by 4, because the last two digits of this number i.e. 32 is divisible by 4. Therefore the whole number, 18232 is divisible by 4.
For example- 150, 31820, 34355 are all divisible by 5, because these numbers have 0, 0 and 5 respectively at their units places.
But Numbers such as 124, 386, 259 are not divisible by 5.
Example- 948 is divisible by 6, as it is divisible by both 2 (at units place it has 8) and 3 (9 + 4 + 8= 21, which is divisible by 3)
But the number 35378 is not divisible by 6, since it is divisible by 2 but not divisible by 3.
Example- 658 is divisible by 7 because, 65-(2x8)=65-16= 49 is divisible by 7. Therefore this number is divisible by 7.
Divisibility Rule for 2
A number is divisible by 2 when the digit at ones place is 0, 2, 4, 6 or 8.For example- 12, 16, 286, 340 etc. are divisible by 2.
Divisibility Rule for 3
A number is said to be divisible by 3, when the sum of its digits is divisible by 3.For example- 210, 156 etc. are divisible by 3, because sum of digits of both of these numbers is divisible by 3.
2 + 1 + 0= 3, which is divisible by 3
Similarly, 1 + 5 + 6 = 12, which is also divisible by 3.
So here we see that sum of digits of the number is divisible by 3 therefore the whole number is divisible by 3.
Divisibility Rules for 4
A number is divisible by 4, if the number formed with it's last two digits is divisible by 4.For example- 18232 is divisible by 4, because the last two digits of this number i.e. 32 is divisible by 4. Therefore the whole number, 18232 is divisible by 4.
Divisibility by 5
A number is said to be divisible by 5, when the digit at ones place is either 0 or 5.For example- 150, 31820, 34355 are all divisible by 5, because these numbers have 0, 0 and 5 respectively at their units places.
But Numbers such as 124, 386, 259 are not divisible by 5.
Divisibility Rule for 6
A number is divisible by 6, if it is divisible by both 2 and 3.Example- 948 is divisible by 6, as it is divisible by both 2 (at units place it has 8) and 3 (9 + 4 + 8= 21, which is divisible by 3)
But the number 35378 is not divisible by 6, since it is divisible by 2 but not divisible by 3.
Divisibility Rule of 7
A number is divisible by 7, when the difference between twice the digit at ones place, and the number formed by the remaining digits is either 0 or a number divisible by 7. Let's understand the divisibility rule of 7 with an example-Example- 658 is divisible by 7 because, 65-(2x8)=65-16= 49 is divisible by 7. Therefore this number is divisible by 7.

Types of Numbers (Natural, Whole, Integer, Rational, Irrational, Real, Imaginary, Complex Numbers)
Following is the Classification of various types of numbers-
Natural Numbers (N)
If N is a set of natural numbers, then we can write the set of natural numbers as N={1,2,3,4,5,6...}. So natural numbers are simply the counting numbers.Whole Numbers (W)
If w is the set of whole numbers, then whole numbers can be written as W={0,1,2,3,4...},So it is clear that if we add 0 in the set of natural numbers then we get the set of whole numbers.
Integers (I)
If we represent the set of integers by I, then we can write I={ ...-3, -2, -1, 1, 0,1, 2, 3...}Here note that, {1,2,3...} is the set of positive integers while, {...-1, -2, -3} is the set of negative integers. But '0' is neither positive number nor negative number.
Rational Numbers (Q)
Rational numbers are the numbers, that can be expressed in the form of p/q, where both p and q are integers and q is not equal to zero.Following are the examples of Rational numbers-
0, 4, -4, 3/4, -5/7 etc.
It is very interesting to note here that between any two rational numbers, there exist infinite number of rational numbers.
Irrational Numbers
Non recurring and non terminating decimals are called has irrational numbers. Unlike rational numbers, irrational numbers cannot be expressed in the form of p/q.Irrational numbers are all the real numbers which are not rational numbers.
Some examples of irrational numbers are-
√3, √5, √7, √29...
Real Numbers
On combining rational numbers and irrational numbers we get set of real numbers.In other words, a real number is a value of a continuous quantity that can represent a distance along a line.
Ex. 2, -3, 3/4, √3, √5...
