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`.

A message signal of frequency 20 kHz and peak voltage 10 V is used to modulate a carrier of frequency 2 MHz and peak voltage of 15 V. Calculate the modulation index. Why the modulation index is generally kept less than one?
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.
- m > 1 will result in overlapping of both side bands resulting into loss of information.
- m > 1 will result in change in phase between carrier signal and message signal.
- m > 1 indicates amplitude of message signal greater than amplitude of carrier signal resulting into distortion.

Why is a AM signal likely to be more noisy than a FM signal upon transmission through a channel?
