This document discusses single sideband modulation and demodulation techniques. It introduces SSB modulation as a method where one sideband is removed through filtering, leaving either the upper or lower sideband. This reduces bandwidth requirements compared to AM, allowing more signals to be transmitted and saving power. However, SSB requires excellent frequency stability between transmitter and receiver. The document provides block diagrams and explanations of SSB modulation and demodulation and their applications in radio communications.

INTRODUCTION:-
• This experiment deals with the basic of Single Side Band Suppressed Carrier
(SSB − SC) modulation, and demodulation techniques for analog
communication. The student will learn the basic concepts of SSB modulation
and using the theoretical knowledge of courses.
BLOCK DIAGRAM:-
WORKING:-
• One method of producing an SSB signal is to
remove one of the sidebands via filtering, leaving
only either the upper sideband (USB), the
sideband with the higher frequency, or less
commonly the lower sideband (LSB), the sideband
with the lower frequency. In order for a receiver
to reproduce the transmitted audio without
distortion, it must be tuned to exactly the same
frequency as the transmitter. Since this is difficult
to achieve in practice, SSB transmissions can sound
unnatural, and if the error in frequency is great
enough, it can cause poor intelligibility.
ADVANTAGES:-
• Less bandwidth requirements . This allow more number of signals to be transmitted in the same frequency range .
• Lots of power saving . This is due to the transmission of only one sideband component .At 100% modulation, the
percent power saving is 83.33% .
• Reduced interference of noise . This is due to the reduced bandwidth . As the bandwidth increases, the amount of
noise added to the signal will increase .

DISADVANTAGES:-
• The generation and reception of SSB signal is complicated
• The SSB transmitter and receiver need to have an excellent frequency stability .
• A slight change in frequency will hamper the quality of transmitted and received signal . Therefore,
SSB is not generally used for the transmission of good quality music. It is used for speech transmission .
APPLICATIONS:-

• For power saving requirements and low bandwidth requirements.


• In land, air, and maritime mobile communications.
• In point-to-point communications.
• In radio communications.
• In television, telemetry, and radar communications.
• In military communications, such as amateur radio, etc
CONCLUSION:-

• Single sideband modulation, SSB is the main modulation format used for
analogue voice transmission for two-way radio communication on the HF
portion of the radio spectrum.
• Its efficiency in terms of spectrum and power when compared to other modes
means that for many years it has been the most effective option to use. Now
some forms of digital voice transmission are being used, but it is unlikely that
single sideband will be ousted for many years as the main format used on
these bands.
