To send multiple signals at one time, one way is to use QAM.
Some trigonometric identities
cos2 θ =1 + cos 2θ
2sin θ cos θ =
sin 2θ
2sin2 θ =
1− cos 2θ

1. QAM structure
Consider the y(t) in the transimitter
y(t) = x1(t) cosωct+ x2(t) sinωct
1
y(t) · cosωct = (x1(t) cosωct+ x2(t) sinωct) cosωct = x1(t) cos2 ωct+ x2(t) sinωct cosωct
Use those identities, the signal is
x1(t)
(1 + cos 2ωct
2
)+ x2(t)
sin 2ωct
2=
1
2x1(t) +
1
2cos 2ωct
1
2x2(t) sin 2ωct
After passing the low pass filter
x′1(t) =
1
2x1(t)
Consider the lower signal in the receiver, the signal is
y(t) · sinωct = (x1(t) cosωct+ x2(t) sinωct) sinωct = x1(t) sinωct cosωct+ x2(t) sin2 ωct
= x1(t)sin 2ωct
2+ x2(t)
1− cos 2ωct
2=
x2(t)
2+ x1(t)
sin 2ωct
2− x2(t)
cos 2ωct
2
So after passing the LPF
x′2(t) =
x2(t)
2
i.e. x′1(t) =
x1(t)
2
x′2(t) =
x2(t)
2Improved QAM
This time the output of the transmitter is
y(t) =√2 [x1(t) cosωct+ x2(t) sinωct]
The signals in receiver are now{Upper y(t)
√2 cosωct
Lower y(t)√2 sinωct
=
{x1(t)2 cos
2 ωct+ x2(t)2 sinωct cosωct
x1(t)2 cosωct sinωct+ x2(t)2 sin2 ωct
=
{x1(t) + x1(t) cos 2ωct+ x2(t) sin 2ωct
x2(t)− x2(t) cos 2ωct+ x1(t) sin 2ωct
2
Consider the upper signal in the receiver, the signal is
After passing low pass filter
x′1(t) = x1(t) x′
2(t) = x2(t)
Thus, this simple QAM is make use of the property of sin-cos function to achieve the objective :sending 2 signal using one channel.
