If what you say is true then why draws every antennabook the voltages like above? We all know that an amplitude can not be negative in value! You would probably agree that the battery voltage amplitude in your vehicle is +12 volts. I once had a 1950 Dodge where the amplitude of the battery voltage was -12 volts. The instantaneous amplitude of the AC voltage out of your wall socket at home goes negative every 60 Hz cycle. So exactly why cannot voltage amplitudes be negative? Changing the phase of an AC voltage by 180 degrees changes the amplitude from positive to negative or from negative to positive. That's what is happening in the ASCII graphic that you drew. -- 73, Cecil, IEEE, OOTC, http://www.w5dxp.com |
