(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. fs = (4800 sample/sec) x 12 = 57.6 Kbps
Where n = number of bit in a symbol

6.    Which of the following analog modulation scheme requires the minimum transmitted power and minimum channel bandwidth?
(a)Â VSB
(b) DSB-SC
(c) SSBÂ (ans)
(d) AM
Solution : Â Â Â VSBÂ â fm + fc
          DBS - SC â 2 fm
                 SSB â fm
                  AM â 2 fm
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
âf =90; fm =5
β =[âf / fm] = [90/5] = 18
FM equation
A cos [wct  + β = sin wmt]
= A cos [wct  + 18 sin wmt]
y(t) = x2 (t) = A2 cos2 [wct  + 18 Sin wmt]
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 {2wct  + 36Sin wmt}]
y(t) =[(A2/2) + (A2/2) Cos {2wct  + 36Sin wmt}]
After the device,
β(new) = 36 = [âf(new) / fm]
âf(new) = 36 x 5 = 180
By carson's rule
Bandwidth = 2(âf +Â fm)
              = 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)Â 21 kHz
(b) 22 kHz
(c) 42 kHz
(d) 44 kHz  (ans)
Solution : âf = 10 KHz    fm(new) = 2 KHz
fm = 1 KHz
By carson's Rule
BW = 2 (âf + fm) = 2 (10 + 1) = 22 KHz
â f(new) = 2 x 10 = 20
BW(new) = 2 (20 + 2) = 44 kHz
