The discussion clarifies the differences between double sideband (DSB) and single sideband (SSB) in amplitude modulation (AM) radio transmitters. DSB transmits both sidebands along with the carrier, while SSB removes the carrier and one sideband, making it more efficient. SSB is generally considered superior due to its power advantages and ease of reception, despite being more expensive to produce. Currently, SSB is the preferred method in most applications, as DSB transmits redundant information. Understanding these distinctions is crucial for anyone involved in AM radio technology.

what is real diffrence between dsb and ssb ?

You are asking about double sideband and single sideband in AM radio transmitters?
You would have to know how amplitude modulation works. I'll assume you do.
If not, read the following:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amplitude_modulation
The products of AM are the original carrier and the sum and difference of the carrier and the audio modulation.

So this is a carrier and two sidebands. It is what you listen to as an AM broadcast signal.

DSB removes the carrier but transmits both sidebands.
SSB removes the carrier and also one of the sidebands.


which is better

SSB is better but more expensive to produce. However it is easier to receive.

which is used mostly
SSB is nearly always used now since it gives power advantages (DSB transmits the same information twice) and is easier to receive than DSB.

You might like to read the following article which gives some applications for DSB

Thread 'I thought it was only Amazon that sold unsafe junk'

I grabbed an under cabinet LED light today at a big box store. Nothing special. 18 inches in length and made to plug several lights together. Here is a pic of the power cord: The drawing on the box led me to believe that it would accept a standard IEC cord which surprised me. But it's a variation of it. I didn't try it, but I would assume you could plug a standard IEC cord into this and have a double male cord AKA suicide cord. And to boot, it's likely going to reverse the hot and...
