a) Square law modulation
b) AM in amplifier circuits.
Each pulse, if it were the only one, would initiate a damped oscillation in the tuned
circuit. The oscillation would have an initial amplitude proportional to the size of the current
pulse and a decay rate dependent on the time constant of the circuit. Since a train of pulses is
fed to the tank circuit here, each pulse will cause a complete since wave proportional in
amplitude to the size of this pulse. This will be followed by the next sine wave, proportional
to the size of next applied pulse, and so on. Bearing in mind that at least 10 times as many
pulses per audio cycle are fed to a practical circuit as shown. We see that an extremely good
approximation of an AM wave will result if the original current pulses are made proportional
to the modulating voltage. The process I known as the “Fly Wheel effect” of the tuned
circuit.
The A.C. current may then be expressed as function of the A.C. voltage as given by
the following Taylor series:
ia = a1 . vs + a2 vs2
where a1 and a2 are Taylor series coefficients
ia is the A.C. anode current; vs is the A.C. anode voltage.

Here a2 Vc Vm cos (c + m) t is the upper sideband term of frequency (c + m)
whereas a2 Vc Vm cos (c - m) t is the lower sideband term of frequency (c - m) .
Thus there are in all 6 terms of different frequencies in addition to the D.C.
component. The load impedance is a tuned circuit which is tuned to the carrier frequency c.
It responds to a narrow band of frequencies centred about the carrier frequency. Hence the
components which are developed in the output arc terms of frequency c, (c + m) and (c -
m) assuming that m « m. The rest of the frequency terms will not produce appreciable
output voltage across the tuned circuit. Hence the desired anode current is given by,

Suppressed Carrier Balanced Modulator using Transistors. Figure gives the basic circuit
The carrier voltage is applied in parallel to the input of the two matched transistor T 1 and T2
whereas the modulating voltage is applied in pushpull to the same two transistors.
In this case vs = vc + vm = Vc cos c t + Vm cos m t
and v’s = vc + vm = Vc - vm = Vc cos c t - Vm cos c t
Substituting the values of vs and vs’ from Eqs. and (4.87) into Eqs. we get
ic = al [Vc cos ct + Vm cos m t] + a2 [V2c cos2 c t + V2m cos2m t
+ 2Vc Vm cos c t cos m t]
and ic’= al[Vc cos c t - Vm cos c t] + a2[V2c cos2 c t + V2m cos2m t
- 2Vc Vm cos c t cos m t]
