We can use complex exponential notation to determine the resulting spectrum of the following sinusoidal ring modulation example:
Figure 7:
The resulting ring modulation spectrum.
We thus see that the product of two sinusoids can be written as a summation:
where
and
.
Note that this is equivalent to applying a sinusoidal amplitude envelope to a carrier oscillator.
Also note the absence of the carrier frequency in the resulting spectrum.
