A carrier wave of `1000W` is subjected to `100%` modulation. Calculate (`i`) Power of modulated wave, (`ii`) power is `USB`, (`iii`) power is `LSB`

Answer» (`i`) Total pressure of modulated wave
`P_(T)=P_(C)(1+(m^(2))/(2))`, `=1000(1+(1^(2))/(2))=1500watt`
(`ii`) Power in `USB=(1)/(2)P_(SB)`
Where power carried by side bands is given by amplitude modulation and detection
`P_(SB)=P_(C)((m^(2))/(2))`, `=1000((1^(2))/(2))=500watt`
`P_(USB)=(1)/(2)P_(SB)=(1)/(2)xx500=250watt`
(`iii`) Since power in `LSB=` Power in `USB`
`P_(LSB)=P_(USB)=250watt`

T.V. transmission tower at a particular station has a height of `160m`. (`a`) What is the coverage range? (`b`) How much population is covered by transmission, if the average population density around the tower is `1200 per km^(2)`? (`c`) What should be the height of tower to double the coverage range

Answer» (`a`) Coverage range `d=sqrt(2Rh)`
`=sqrt(2xx6400xx10^(3)xx160m)`
`=45.254 km`
(`b`) Population covered
`=("population density")xx("area covered")`

`=77.17lac`
(`c`) Coverage range `propsqrt(h)`
Therefore coverage range can be doubled by making height of the lower four times to `640m`. So, height of the lower should be increased by `480 m`.

The load on an `Am` diode detector consists of a resistance of `50KOmega` in parallel with a capacitor of `0.001 muF`. Determine the maximum modulation index that the detector can handle without distortion when modulation frequency is (`i`) `1kHz` (`ii`) `5 kHz`

Answer» Here `R_(C)` and `C` are in parallel combination and phase difference between `i_(1)` and `i_(2)` is `(pi)/(2)`
`i^(2)+i_(1)^(2)+i_(2)^(2)`
`[(V)/(Z_(m))]^(2)=[(V)/(R_(c))]^(2)+[(V)/(X_(c))]^(2)`
`Z_(m)=(1)/(sqrt((1)/(R_(c))^(2)+(1)/((X_(c))^(2))))`
`M_(max)=(Z_(m))/(R_(c))`

`=(1)/(sqrt(1+(2pifCR_(c))^(2)))`
For `f=1kHz`
`M_(max)=(1)/(sqrt(1+0.098696))=0.945`
For `f=5kHz`
`M_(max) =(1)/(sqrt(1+24674))=0.537`

Why is an AM signal likely to be more noisy than a FM signal upon transmission through a channel?

Answer» In case of AM, the instantaneous voltage of carrier waves is varied by the modulating wave voltage. So, during the transmission, noise signals can also be added and receiver assumes noise a part of the modulating signal.
In case of FM, the frequency of carrier waves is changed as the change in the instantaneous voltage of modulating waves. This can be done by mixing and not while the signal is transmitting in channel. So, noise does not affect FM signal.
