Hello i want to create an envelope detector to demodulate AM.
a(t)=x(t)+j(hilbert(x(t))
The envelope of x(t) should be then
abs(hilbert(x(t))) ??????

Hi David, yes, the envelope is the absolute value of the analytic signal, but just keep in mind that in MATLAB, hilbert() returns the analytic signal.

so, it should be used abs(a(t))

thank you vey much!

or it should be

a(t) = a(t)=hilbert(x(t)
abs ( a ( t) )
