Assignment 01
Q1. An audio signal
m(t)= 15cos 2 1500t 
modulates a carrier
c(t)= 60 cos 2 100000t 
(i) Sketch the audio signal.
(ii) Sketch the carrier.
(iii) Construct the modulated wave.
(iv) Determine the modulation index.
(v) What are the frequency contents of the modulated wave in a spectrum analysis
Q2. How many AM broadcast stations can be accomodated in a 100 kHz bandwidth if the
highest frequency of the message signal is 5 kHz ?
Q3. The output signal from an AM modulator is :
u ( t )  5 cos 1800t  20 cos 2000 t  5 cos 2200 t
(i) Determine the modulating signal m(t)
(ii) Determine the carrier signal c(t)
(iii) Determine the modulation index
(iv) Determine the ratio of the power in the sidebands to the power in the
carrier .
Q4. A conventional AM waveform xAM ( t ) is shown in Figure shown below . Calculate the
modulation index.

Q5. A carrier wave is represented by the expression v(t)  10 cos  t . Draw the AM modulated
wave for a modulation index 0.5.
