Total Power of AM wave Formula Elements

Variables
Total Power
Total Power is the amount of energy liberated per second in an analog signal.
Symbol: Pt
Measurement: PowerUnit: W
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Carrier Power
Carrier Power is the power dissipated by a carrier modulating wave.
Symbol: Pc
Measurement: PowerUnit: W
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Upper Sideband Power
Upper Sideband Power is a type of radio communication in which the carrier frequency is placed above audio frequency, allowing for higher data transmission rates.
Symbol: Pusb
Measurement: PowerUnit: W
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Lower Sideband Power
Lower sideband power is the power which is lower than the carrier power during the modulation process.
Symbol: Plsb
Measurement: PowerUnit: W
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
