A radio, constructed from mechanical components, electronic devices, magnets, etc., is a machine that uses electrical energy to convert radio signals and can listen to audio signals emitted by broadcasting stations. The radio receives high-frequency amplitude modulation waves broadcasted by the radio station, converts the received amplitude modulation wave signals into a fixed intermediate frequency through a frequency conversion stage, amplifies them, and then detects the audio signal through the detection stage, which is sent to the low-frequency amplification stage for amplification, pushing the speaker to produce sound.
At present, there are mainly two types of radios on the market: frequency modulation and amplitude modulation. They usually use superheterodyne, which has the advantages of high sensitivity, stable operation, good selectivity, and low distortion. In recent years, radios have been continuously developing towards circuit integration, digital display, three-dimensional sound, functional computerization, and miniaturization of structures.
