AI Thread Summary
Increasing modulation depth affects both product and envelope detectors differently. Product detectors maintain performance with higher modulation depths, as they can effectively demodulate complex signals. In contrast, envelope detectors may struggle with distortion and reduced fidelity at high modulation depths due to their reliance on the envelope of the signal. Understanding modulation depth involves equations that define it, typically related to the amplitude of the modulating signal compared to the carrier. For accurate analysis, it's essential to explore relevant circuits and theoretical foundations.

What will happen to product detector and envelope detector when modulation depth is increasing?

(I deleted the unecessary ? from your post)

What do you think will happen? What equations should you use to answer your question? Please define and show us circuits for the product detector and envelope detector. What is the equation for Modulation Depth?

Please put much more effort into your questions here at the PF.
 
as in the i just want to know the theory of it

Please show some effort of your own, or this thread will be deleted.

Search your terms on wikipedia, hyperphysics, google, etc. If you have specific questions about what you find, post the links and your specific questions here.
 
when is the condition for use of product detector??
 
Hi all I have some confusion about piezoelectrical sensors combination. If i have three acoustic piezoelectrical sensors (with same receive sensitivity in dB ref V/1uPa) placed at specific distance, these sensors receive acoustic signal from a sound source placed at far field distance (Plane Wave) and from broadside. I receive output of these sensors through individual preamplifiers, add them through hardware like summer circuit adder or in software after digitization and in this way got an...
I have recently moved into a new (rather ancient) house and had a few trips of my Residual Current breaker. I dug out my old Socket tester which tell me the three pins are correct. But then the Red warning light tells me my socket(s) fail the loop test. I never had this before but my last house had an overhead supply with no Earth from the company. The tester said "get this checked" and the man said the (high but not ridiculous) earth resistance was acceptable. I stuck a new copper earth...
I am not an electrical engineering student, but a lowly apprentice electrician. I learn both on the job and also take classes for my apprenticeship. I recently wired my first transformer and I understand that the neutral and ground are bonded together in the transformer or in the service. What I don't understand is, if the neutral is a current carrying conductor, which is then bonded to the ground conductor, why does current only flow back to its source and not on the ground path...
