प्रश्न
The maximum amplitude of an A.M. wave is found to be 15 V while its minimum amplitude is found to be 3 V. What is the modulation index?

उत्तर
Modulation index `mu,`
= `(A_(max) - A_(min))/(A_(max) + A_(min)` .....(A = amplitude of modulated wave)
∴ `mu = (15 - 3)/(15 + 3) = 12/18 = 2/3`.

In amplitude modulation, the modulation index m, is kept less than or equal to 1 because ______.
- m > 1, will result in interference between carrier frequency and message frequency, resulting into distortion.
