  • a
    What is noise? Noise is difficult to eliminate but its effec t can be minimizing justify
  • b
    An FM modulator operates at carrier-signal frequency of 500 KHz having peak amplitude of 10V . A modulating frequency (f m) of 10 KHz modulates it with a peak frequenc y deviation (δ) of 10 KHz. Fro m the Bessel function table, it is observed that a frequency modulation index of one yield three sets of significan t of sidebands. Compare actua l minimum bandwidth as obtained using Bessel function and the approximate minimum bandwidth using Carson’s rule

  • a
    A Discrete Memory less Source X has five symbols (s 0, s1, s2, s3, s4) and their probabilities of occurrence are given as 0.40, 0.20, 0.20 , 0.10, 0.10, respectively. Construct Huffman Code and calculate efficiency
  • b
    Giving modulated waveforms, single space diagrams and probab ility of errors draw the optimum receiver structures for DPSK and coherent FSK modulation schemes
  • a
    Define information and entropy. Find an expression for the c hannel capacity of a continuous channel
  • b
    What should be the desirable feature of a T1 carrier system? Explain PCM-TDM system
