Maximum Amplitude Formula

Maximum Amplitude of AM Wave = Amplitude of Carrier Signal*(1+Modulation Index^2)
Amax = Ac*(1+μ^2)

How maximum amplitude can be determined?

Maximum amplitude can be determined if the amplitude of carrier signal and the modulation index is given to us. It is expressed as:
Maximum amplitude, Amax= Ac(1+μ)
where, Ac= amplitude of carrier signal
and μ= modulation index.
