EE 320 - Assignment #5
For 25.8.11

1. An angle modulated signal with carrier frequency ωc = 2π × 106 is

described by the equation

ϕEM (t) = 10 cos(ωc t + 0.1 sin 2000πt)

(a) Find the power of the modulated signal.

(b) Find the frequency deviation ∆f .
(c) Find the phase deviation ∆φ.
(d) Estimate the bandwidth of ϕEM (t).

2. Given m(t) = e−t , fc = 104 Hz, kf = 3000, and kp = 8000π.

(a) Find ∆f , the frequency deviation for FM and PM.

(b) Estimate the bandwidths of FM and PM waves. Hint: Find M (ω)
and observe the rapid decay of this spectrum. Its 3-dB bandwidth
is even smaller than 1 Hz (B ≪ ∆f ).

3. Single-sideband modulation can viewed as a hybrid form of amplitude

modulation and frequency modulation. Evaluate the envelope and
instantaneous frequency of an SSB wave for the following two cases:

(a) When only the upper sideband is transmitted.

(b) When only the lower sideband is transmitted.

4. In a frequency-modulated radar, the instantaneous frequency of the

transmitted carrier is varied as in Figure 1, which is obtained by us-
ing a triangular modulating signal. The instantaneous frequency of
the received echo signal is shown dashed in Figure 1, where τ is the
round-trip delay time. The transmitted and received signals are ap-
plied to a mixer, and the difference frequency component is retained.

Figure 1: Figure for Problem 4

Assuming that f0 τ ≪ 1, determine the number of beat cycles at the

mixer output, averaged over one second, in terms of peak deviation
∆f of the carrier frequency, the delay τ , and the repetition frequency
f0 of the transmitted signal.

5. Design(only the block diagram) an Armstrong indirect FM modula-

tor to generate an FM carrier with carrier frequency of 96 Mhz and
∆f = 20 KHz. A narrow-band FM generator with fc = 200 KHz
and adjustable ∆f in the range of 9 to 10 Hz is available. The stock
room also has an oscillator with adjustable frequency range of 9 to 10
MHz. There is a bandpass filter with any center frequency, and only
frequency doublers are available.
