Time: 3hrs
Max Marks: 100

Answer all Questions

PART - A (10 x 2 = 20 Marks)

1. Suggest one application for AM, SSB, DSB and VSB modulation techniques and
justify your answer.

2. When a signal m(t) = 3 cos (2π x 103t ) modulates a carrier c(t) = 5 cos (π x 106t), find
the modulation index and transmission bandwidth if the modulation is AM.

3. Distinguish between Narrowband and Wideband FM.

4. A 15 KHz audio signal is frequency modulated with modulation index= 5.Calculate the
transmission bandwidth of FM Signal.

5. What do you understand by additive white Gaussian Noise? Explain.

6. Define Noise figure and Noise Temperature.

receiver.

PART - B (5 x 16 = 80 Marks)

11.i) An RF Communication system has a channel power loss of the 80dB and No = 10-
14 W/Hz. The base band message signal has the bandwidth of 5MHz and a uniform
amplitude distribution in the interval ±2 Volts. Calculate the transmitter power required
for SNRo = 40dB when the modulation is (a) SSB (b) AM with Ka = 0.8.
(OR)

(ii) A sinusoidal message signal of frequency 1000Hz is used as modulating signal in FM


and AM systems. The unmodulated carrier amplitude is the same in both systems. The
peak frequency deviation of the FM system is set to 4 times the bandwidth of the AM
system. The magnitude of the spectral components at fc±1000Hz are equal for both
systems. Determine the modulation index of AM and FM systems.

12.a) Describe the square law method of generating AM signal and envelope detector for
demodulation.

(OR)

12.b) Explain ring modulator for DSB signal generation and phase shift method for SSB
signal generation.

13.a) Show that spectrum of a single tone FM wave is

(i) where the symbols have the usual


meaning.

ii) Draw the tone modulated line spectrum with β=2 for the above and comment about the
transmission bandwidth.

(OR)

13.b) Show how a narrow band noise can be represented as n(t) = nc(t) coswct - ns(t)
sinwct where nc(t) and ns(t) are the in-phase and quadrature phase components of noise
respectively.

14.a) Derive an expression for the output SNR of an FM receiver and hence obtain the
figure of merit.

(OR)

14.b)i) Show that the figure of merit of an AM receiver is Ka2Pm/(1+ Ka2Pm), where the
symbols denote the usual meaning.

ii) Distinguish between Coherent and non - coherent reception.

15.a)i) Show that the joint entropy H(X,Y) = H(X) +H(Y/X)
