If I were to increase the modulation frequency to say, 100 kHz, how would this affect the bandwidth?
*edit* - So by increasing the modulation frequency, I would be increasing the bandwidth. If I decrease modulation frequency then I will be decreasing bandwidth. For example,
Modulation freq of 1 kHz --> square wave has around 5 times the fundamental frequency of modulation, 5(1 kHz) = 5 kHz
fc = 1000 kHz
fm = 5 kHz
LSB = fc - fm = 995 kHz
USB = fc + fm = 1005 kHz
So now, we have data transmission only 10 kHz wide.
Does this sound right?
