Q1.
The baseband modulating signal vm (t) is shown in Figure 1 and it is given by:
vm(t) = 5 cos (2000pt + 20) + 9 cos (6000pt + 600) + 13 cos (10000pt + 1000) + 0.5 cos (14000pt + 1400)
(a) Neatly sketch the magnitude spectrum of vm(t). Clearly label axes and spectral components.
(b) Neatly sketch the phase spectrum of vm(t). Clearly label axes and spectral components.
(c) Standard amplitude modulation is used for transmission using a carrier given by:
vc (t) = 50 cos (50000pt)
What will be the maximum positive value and the minimum positive value of the modulated wave v(t).
Calculate the effective modulation index of v(t).
Sketch the magnitude spectrum of the modulated wave v(t). Indicate on the spectrum the bandwidth of v(t).
Calculate the total power in v(t) if the load resistance is 100 ?.
(d) A baseband modulating signal vm(t) = Vm cos (2pfmt) amplitude modulates a carrier vc(t) = Vc cos (2pfct). Use spectral diagrams and algebraic expressions to compare the 3 methods of amplitude modulation based on the criteria of bandwidth and power usage. On the basis of your explorations indicate which method is most efficient with respect to (i) bandwidth and (ii) power utilization.
