उत्तर
Modulation is the process in which low frequency message signal is superimposed on high frequency carrier wave so that they can be transmitted over long distances.
The block diagram for a simple modulator for obtaining AM signal is shown below:

Define modulation index.
The carrier wave is given by
C(t) = 2sin(8πt) volt.
The modulating signal is a square wave as shown. Find modulation index.
Due to economic reasons, only the upper sideband of an AM wave is transmitted, but at the receiving station, there is a facility for generating the carrier. Show that if a device is available which can multiply two signals, then it is possible to recover the modulating signal at the receiver station.

The carrier wave is represented by
Given modulation index physical significance .For an amplitude modulated wave, the maximum amplitude is found to be 10 V while the minimum amplitude is 2 V. Determine the modulation index μ ?
Answer the following question.
Why a signal transmitted from a TV tower cannot be received beyond a certain distance? Write the expression for the optimum separation between the receiving and the transmitting antenna.
An audio signal of 15kHz frequency cannot be transmitted over long distances without modulation because ______.
- the size of the required antenna would be at least 5 km which is not convenient.
- the audio signal can not be transmitted through sky waves.
- the size of the required antenna would be at least 20 km, which is not convenient.
- effective power transmitted would be very low, if the size of the antenna is less than 5 km.
A TV transmission tower antenna is at a height of 20 m. How much service area can it cover if the receiving antenna is (i) at ground level, (ii) at a height of 25 m? Calculate the percentage increase in area covered in case (ii) relative to case (i).
A 25 m long antenna is mounted on an antenna tower. The height of the antenna tower is 75 m. The wavelength (in meter) of the signal transmitted by this antenna would be ______.
