Demodulating AM Signals
Measuring the Modulation Rate of an AM Signal
Figure 10-1 Measuring Time Parameters
NOTE Make sure the delta markers above are placed on adjacent peaks. See Figure 10-1 The frequency
or the AM rate is 1 divided by the time between adjacent peaks:
AM Rate = 1/1.0 ms = 1 kHz
The signal analyzer can also make this rate calculation by changing the marker readout to inverse
time.
