Communication System Question 1

Question 1 - 24 January - Shift 1

A modulating signal is a square wave, as shown in the figure.

If the carrier wave is given as $c(t)=2 \sin (8 \pi t)$ volts, the modulation index is :

(1) $1 / 4$

(2) 1

(3) $1 / 3$

(4) $1 / 2$

Show Answer

Answer: (4)

Solution:

Formula: Modulation Index

Modulation index

Amplitude of modulating signal
$=$ Amplitude of carrier wave

$\mu=\frac{1}{2}$
