f(x) =   f(x) 1,0           {  0, x>a

(a) ?2/p  (cos st / s)

(b) ?2/p  (1 - cos as / s)     (Ans)

(c) ?2  (1 - cos as)

(d) None of these

2.     A random variable X with uniform density in the interval 0 to 1 is Quantized as follows:

        If      0 ? X ? 0.3,     x_q = 0

        If      0.3 ? X ? 1,     x_q = 0.7

Where X_q is the quatized value of x

The root mean square value of the quantization noise is

(a) 0.573

(b) 0.198    (ans)

(c) 2.205

(d) 0.266

Solution : Since it is uniform as

x_q = 0 in the range 0?x?0.3

x_q = 0.7 in the range 0.3?x?1

The square mean value is

         ¥        
s² = ? (x - x_q)²  f (x) dx
      -¥

       ₁
    = ? (x - x_q)²  f (x) dx
       ⁰

      _{0.3                               0.1}                                                  
    = ? (x - 0)²  f (x) dx + ? (x - 0.7)²  f (x) dx
       _{0                                0.3}  

              _{0.3                                        1}
    = [x³/3]    + [x³/3  + 0.49 x - 1.4]
               _{0                                          0.3}

or    s² = 0.039

The root mean square quantization noise

RMS = ?s²

       = ?0.039 = 0.198

3.     Choose the correct one from among the alternatives A, B, C, D after matching an item from Group 1 with the most appropriate item in Group 2.

(d) 1 - U,    2 - R,         3 - S,         4 - Q

Solution :     FM --- Capture effect --- Receives only strong signal

DM ---- Slop over load Noise

PSK --- Matched filter

PCM - m law - Non linear quantization by using Companding with a law

V = log (1 +  m |M|)
        log (1 +m )

4.     There analog signals, having bandwidth 1200 Hz, 600 Hz and 600 Hz, are sampled at their respective Nyquist rates, encoded with 12 bit words, and time division multiplexed. The bit rate for the multiplexed signal is

(a) 115.2 kbps

(b) 28.8 kbps

(c) 57.6 kbps   (ans)

(d) 38.4 kbps

Solution : The three analog Signals having BW 1200 Hz, 600Hz and 600 Hz are sampled at their respective Nyquist rate i.e. at 2400, 1200, 1200 sample/sec respectively.

The total of (2400 + 1200 + 1200) = 4800 sample/sec

The Bit rate = n. f_s = (4800 sample/sec) x 12 = 57.6 Kbps

Where n = number of bit in a symbol

 5.     Find the correct match between group 1 and group 2.

Ground I

P - [1 + km (t)] A sin (w_ct)

Q - km (t) A sin (w_ct)

R - A sin [ w'_c + k]'_-¥  m (t) dt

S - A sin [w_ct  + k '?_-¥ m (t) dt]

Solution :   

Group II

W - Phase modulation

X - Frequency modulation

Y - Amplitude modulation

Z - DSB-SC modulation

      P        Q        R        S
(a)  Z        Y        X        W

(b)  W       X        Y        Z  

(c)   X       W       Z        Y

(d)   Y       Z       W        X  (ans)

Solution : The correct match is given below

6.     Which of the following analog modulation scheme requires the minimum transmitted power and minimum channel bandwidth?

(a) VSB

(b) DSB-SC

(c) SSB  (ans)

(d) AM

Solution :     VSB  ? f_m + f_c

           DBS - SC  ? 2 f_m

                  SSB  ? f_m

                   AM ? 2 f_m

Thus SSB has minimum bandwidth and it required minimum power i.e. 17% as compared to AM.

 7.     A device with input x(t) and output y(t) is characteristic by : y (t) = x²(t). An FM signal with frequency deviation of 90 KHz and modulation signal bandwidth of 5 KHz is applied to this device. The bandwidth of the output signal is

(a) 370 KHz  (ans)

(b) 190 KHz

(c) 380 KHz

(d) 95 KHz

Solution : In present case

?f =90; f_m =5

? =[?f / f_m] = [90/5] = 18

FM equation

A cos [w_ct  + ? = sin w_mt]

= A cos [w_ct  + 18 sin w_mt]

y(t) = x² (t) = A² cos² [w_ct  + 18 Sin w_mt]

Note : Cos² q = [1 + Cos2q] / 2

If there is change in frequency the modulation index also changes in same ratio

y(t) = A² [(1/2) + (1/2) Cos {2w_ct  + 36Sin w_mt}]

y(t) =[(A²/2) + (A²/2) Cos {2w_ct  + 36Sin w_mt}]

After the device,

?_(new) = 36 = [?f_(new) / f_m]

?f_{(new) =} 36 x 5 = 180

By carson's rule

Bandwidth = 2(?f +  f_m)

               = 2 (180 + 5)

Bandwidth = 370 kHz

 9.     A carrier is phase modulated (PM) with frequency deviation of 10 KHz by a single tone frequency of 1 KHz. If the single tone frequency is increased to 2 KHz, assuming that phase deviation remains unchanged, the bandwidth of the PM signal is

(a) 21 kHz

(b) 22 kHz

(c) 42 kHz

(d) 44 kHz   (ans)

Solution : ?f = 10 KHz     f_m(new) = 2 KHz

f_m = 1 KHz

By carson's Rule

BW = 2 (?f + f_m) = 2 (10 + 1) = 22 KHz

? f_(new) = 2 x 10 = 20

BW_(new) = 2 (20 + 2) = 44 kHz
