Frequency components of an AM wave (m = modulation index) areSelect one:a.  Upper side band (ωc + ωm) having amplitude mA/2b.  All of the abovec. Lower side band (ωc - ωm) having amplitude mA/2d. Carrier frequency (ωc ) with amplitude A

Solution

The correct answer is b. All of the above.

An AM wave consists of three main components:

  1. The carrier frequency (ωc) with amplitude A. This is the original, unmodulated frequency of the signal.

  2. The upper side band (ωc + ωm) having amplitude mA/2. This is the frequency of the signal that is produced when the carrier frequency is modulated by the message signal. It is higher than the carrier frequency.

  3. The lower side band (ωc - ωm) having amplitude mA/2. This is the frequency of the signal that is produced when the carrier frequency is modulated by the message signal. It is lower than the carrier frequency.

Therefore, all of the options a, c, and d are correct.
