Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

If a radio station is using SSB at 14 MHz with a voice signal modulating frequency from 300 Hz to 3 kHz, what would be the bandwidth of the SSB transmission? Additionally, if it were using standard AM, what would be the bandwidth?

💡 Hint: Remember the bandwidth formulas for SSB and AM and apply them.

Challenge 2 Hard

A signal received from an SSB transmission appears distorted due to lack of synchronization. Discuss potential causes and how you would troubleshoot this issue.

💡 Hint: Think about the role of the local oscillator in SSB demodulation.
