Am bandwidth range

In the AM band, each AM station has a maximum bandwidth of 10 kHz, extending 5 kHz above and 5 kHz below the assigned center frequency. The AM band in the United States covers frequencies from 540 kHz up to 1700 kHz, in 10 kHz steps (540, 550, 560 ... 1680, 1690, 1700).

What is the bandwidth of an AM signal?

The information transmitted is music and talk which falls in the audio spectrum. The full audio spectrum ranges up to 20 kHz, but AM radio limits the upper modulating frequency to 5 kHz. This results in a maximum bandwidth of 10 kHz.

What is the standard bandwidth of AM and?

The Amplitude Modulated (AM radio) carrier frequencies are in the frequency range 535-1605 kHz. Carrier frequencies of 540 to 1600 kHz are assigned at 10 kHz intervals. The FM radio band is from 88 to 108 MHz between VHF television Channels 6 and 7.

Which has more bandwidth AM or FM?

The bandwidth allotted to an FM station is 150 kHz, which is 15 times that of an AM station. This explains why music sounds so much better on FM since an FM station can send 15 times as much information as an AM station. Answer.
