what's the carrier suppression ON band

anyone:
what's the carrier suppression ON band, who can explain them for me,Thanks a lot,!

Ykgbm

it is easy,y=(1+mcos(wt))*cos(wc*t)=cos(wc*t)+mcos(wt)*c os(wc*t),in AM modulation, the cos(wc*t) is the carrier frequency,but it dosenot carry any information,so we shall filter it before it come into power amplifier,this called carrier supression

thanks! i have find some of the carrier suppression paper from ti websites,so would be study it,

hi springf2000:
i have a question,when measure carrier suppression on IQView or agilent spectrum analyzer,then, how much output power should be? pls advise,thanks!
