The theory of dsb sc ssb sc modulation and demodulation double sideband suppressed carrier modulation at the beginning of the explanation of amplitude modulation, we explained the am radio system, but the term for amplitude in the theoretical expression was complex. Thus, in order to save power and bandwidth, dsb sc modulation technique is adopted. It is often called as am and is commonly used in transmitting a piece of information through a radio carrier wave. Dsb sc is basically an amplitude modulation wave without the carrier, therefore reducing power waste, giving it a 50% efficiency. Double sideband dsb is one of the easiest modulation techniques to understand, so it is a good starting point for the study of modulation.
