Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Consider an AM system that uses a 1 MHz carrier frequency to transmit speech with a frequency range of 300 Hz to 3400 Hz. Calculate the bandwidth for Standard AM, DSB-SC, and SSB.

💡 Hint: Use the modulation formulas for bandwidth.

Question 2

Analyze the trade-offs between using Standard AM and SSB for a high-fidelity audio transmission. Consider aspects such as bandwidth, power consumption, and complexity.

💡 Hint: Think about why power matters in transmission quality.
