AT02 - Introductory Analog Communications The AT02 teaching set comprises: CT20 ANACOM 1/1 (DSB/SSB AM transmitter) and 1/2 (DSB/SSB AM receiver) trainers. CT21 ANACOM 2 (FM communications) trainer. CT7 Audio input module. CT8 Audio output module. CS1 Set of 36 x 4mm leads. PS20 power supply. AT02 IM Curriculum manual, instructor's guide and student workbook. Additional items required: Oscilloscope Function Generator If the study module is to be used in a ClassAct computer managed learning environment, then a student PC will also be required. The AT02 teaching set introduces students to the fundamental principles of amplitude and frequency modulation through a wide range of hands-on activities. The teaching set includes a curriculum manual, a DSB/SSB AM transmitter/receiver system, an FM communications trainer, and audio modules allowing the transmission of sound. When used in conjunction with a student personal computer (PC), the curriculum manual is fully compatible with the ClassAct computer managed learning system. The curriculum manual is divided into a series of chapters. Each covers a specific topic area and provides background theory, practical activities and student assessment questions. Each chapter is designed around a list of performance objectives. These objectives are used by the ClassAct management system to generate a student competency report. An instructor’s guide is included, providing solutions to all of the questions and practical activities contained in the curriculum manual. Typical topic areas include: An Introduction to Amplitude Modulation. DSB AM Transmitter and Receiver. Single Sideband AM Systems. Locating Faults in DSB and SSB AM Transmission Systems. FM Modulators. FM Frequency Demodulators. Locating Faults in FM Transmission Systems. Typical activities include: Draw the frequency spectrum of a double sideband AM wave. Measure the depth of modulation of an AM wave. Recognize and investigate the operation of a double sideband AM superheterodyne receiver. Recognize how a receiver can recover the information signal from a single sideband AM transmission. Identify the function and operation of an automatic gain control circuit. Diagnose faults on a DSB AM transmission system. Identify the main characteristics of an FM transmission system. Compare the performance of detuned resonant, quadrature and phase-locked loop FM demodulators. Recognize the operation of foster-seeley and ratio FM demodulators. Diagnose and locate faults in an FM communications system. AT02 – Introductory Analog Communications No. Chapters www.ljcreate.com Ref No. P5461-C 10 Total Average time 90 minutes 15 hours Page 1 of 1
