5.a) Mention applications of different AM Systems.
b) A vestigial filter has a transfer function H (f) with fc = 105Hz. Find the VSB modulated
signal when e m(t) = cos (2fmt) and e c(t) = 2cos(2fct). Assume fm=103Hz. [5+5]
6.a) Discuss the effect of modulation index on the band width of FM. Explain the
generation of WBFM from NBFM with neat sketch.
b) A carrier is frequency modulated by a sinusoidal modulating of frequency 2 kHz,
resulting in a frequency deviation of 5 kHz. What is the bandwidth occupied by the
modulated waveform? The amplitude of the modulating sinusoid is increased by a
factor 2 and its frequency lowered by 500Hz. What is the new bandwidth? [5+5]
