Minimum Amplitude Formula Elements

Variables
Minimum Amplitude of AM Wave
Minimum Amplitude Of AM Wave is the minimum amount of displacement of a particle on the medium from its rest position.
Symbol: Amin
Measurement: Electric PotentialUnit: V
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Amplitude of Carrier Signal
Amplitude of Carrier Signal is varied in accordance with the instantaneous amplitude of the modulating signal. The modulating signal is the signal that contains the information to be transmitted.
Symbol: Ac
Measurement: Electric PotentialUnit: V
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Modulation Index
Modulation Index states the level of modulation that a carrier wave undergoes.
Symbol: μ
Measurement: NAUnit: Unitless
Note: Value should be greater than 0.

How to Evaluate Minimum Amplitude?

Minimum Amplitude evaluator uses Minimum Amplitude of AM Wave = Amplitude of Carrier Signal*(1-Modulation Index^2) to evaluate the Minimum Amplitude of AM Wave, Minimum amplitude is the least amplitude of the modulating wave. It is the minimum displacement or distance moved by a point on a vibrating body or wave measured from its equilibrium position. Minimum Amplitude of AM Wave is denoted by Amin symbol.
