September 1955. • ^ecAmc€ii ^afUc^ — Ripple on the Scope Pattern IT IS well known that a perfect single-tone single-eideband signal consists of but a singleradio frequency. When such a signal is displayedon the face of a scope being swept horizontallyat an audio-frequency rate, the pattern is ahorizontal band having perfectly smooth andstraight upper and lower edges. It is identicalwith the pattern of any unmodulated carrier. If the suppression of the other sideband orthe carrier is not complete, the edges of thepattern show a ripple. Assuming that the carrieris completely suppressed, the relationship be-tween the desired and undesired side frequenciescan be represented by the phasor ^ diagramshown in Fig. 1. AB represents the amplitude X \ Fig. 1 — The mechanism I by which the undesired side / frequency makes a ripple on the desired side frequencyof an signal. Other pos-sible spurious components areneglected in this drawing, butcan be included if their rela-tive amplitu
