Show Answer
Solution:
Ans. (i) A low frequency signal is modulated for the following purposes:
(a) It reduces the wavelength of transmitted signal, and the minimum height of antenna for effective communtication is
(b) Power radiated into the space by an antenna is inversely proportional to
1
In amplitude modulation, the amplitude of a carrier wave is made to vary, with time, in the same way as the modulating signal varies with time.
