  2. Radio transmitter design - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio_transmitter_design

    Radio transmitter design. A radio transmitter or just transmitter is an electronic device which produces radio waves with an antenna. Radio waves are electromagnetic waves with frequencies between about 30 Hz and 300 GHz. The transmitter itself generates a radio frequency alternating current, which is applied to the antenna.

  3. Spark-gap transmitter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spark-gap_transmitter

    The spark gap is inside the box with the transparent cover at top center. A spark-gap transmitter is an obsolete type of radio transmitter which generates radio waves by means of an electric spark. [1][2] Spark-gap transmitters were the first type of radio transmitter, and were the main type used during the wireless telegraphy or "spark" era ...

  4. Carrier wave - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carrier_wave

    Carrier wave. The frequency spectrum of a typical radio signal from an AM or FM radio transmitter. The horizontal axis is frequency; the vertical axis is signal amplitude or power. It consists of a signal (C) at the carrier wave frequency fC, with the modulation contained in narrow frequency bands called sidebands (SB) just above and below the ...

  5. AM broadcasting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AM_broadcasting

    AM broadcasting. AM broadcasting is radio broadcasting using amplitude modulation (AM) transmissions. It was the first method developed for making audio radio transmissions, and is still used worldwide, primarily for medium wave (also known as "AM band") transmissions, but also on the longwave and shortwave radio bands.

  6. Transmitter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transmitter

    Commercial FM broadcasting transmitter at radio station WDET-FM, Wayne State University, Detroit, US.It broadcasts at 101.9 MHz with a radiated power of 48 kW.. In electronics and telecommunications, a radio transmitter or just transmitter (often abbreviated as XMTR or TX in technical documents) is an electronic device which produces radio waves with an antenna with the purpose of signal ...

  7. FM broadcasting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FM_broadcasting

    FM broadcasting is a method of radio broadcasting that uses frequency modulation (FM) of the radio broadcast carrier wave. Invented in 1933 by American engineer Edwin Armstrong, wide-band FM is used worldwide to transmit high-fidelity sound over broadcast radio. FM broadcasting offers higher fidelity—more accurate reproduction of the original ...

  8. Valve transmitters - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valve_transmitters

    The signals come into the circuit through a capacitor, they are then applied to the valve's first grid directly. The value of the grid resistor determines the gain of the amplifier stage. The higher the resistor the greater the gain, the lower the damping effect and the greater the risk of instability. With this type of stage good layout is ...

  9. Amplifier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amplifier

    An amplifier is defined as a circuit that has a power gain greater than one. [2][3][4] An amplifier can be either a separate piece of equipment or an electrical circuit contained within another device. Amplification is fundamental to modern electronics, and amplifiers are widely used in almost all electronic equipment.
