What is the total modulation index when a carrier wave is modulated by three sine waves for which modulation μ1 = 0.41, μ2 = 0.51 and μ3 = 0.45 respectively?

Solution

Given, 
modulation index, μ1 = 0.41, μ2 = 0.51 and μ3 = 0.45

Total modulation index , μ = μ12+μ22+μ321/2

 
        μ = [(0.4)2+(0.51)2+(0.45)2]1/2    = 0.79
