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??
 

Thread 'How might electronics be different if AC voltage was 72V at 45 Hz?'

Hey guys. I have a question related to electricity and alternating current. Say an alien fictional society developed electricity, and settled on a standard like 73V AC current at 46 Hz. How would appliances be designed, and what impact would the lower frequency and voltage have on transformers, wiring, TVs, computers, LEDs, motors, and heating, assuming the laws of physics and technology are the same as on Earth?

Thread 'Why does the amperage go real high if there is a low voltage short?'

I used to be an HVAC technician. One time I had a service call in which there was no power to the thermostat. The thermostat did not have power because the fuse in the air handler was blown. The fuse in the air handler was blown because there was a low voltage short. The rubber coating on one of the thermostat wires was chewed off by a rodent. The exposed metal in the thermostat wire was touching the metal cabinet of the air handler. This was a low voltage short. This low voltage...

Thread 'Electromagnet magnetic field issue'

Hi Guys We are a bunch a mechanical engineers trying to build a simple electromagnet. Our design is based on a very similar magnet. However, our version is about 10 times less magnetic and we are wondering why. Our coil has exactly same length, same number of layers and turns. What is possibly wrong? PIN and bracket are made of iron and are in electrical contact, exactly like the reference design. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks. edit: even same wire diameter and coil was wounded by a...
