QUESTION: The maximum voltage standing wave of an RG-11/U foam coaxial
cable is 52 V and its minimum voltage is 17 V. How many percent of the incident
power is the reflected power?
Choices:
a. 51% b. 26% c. 3% d. 97%

ANSWER:
b. 26%
Г 2 = Pr/Pi
Г = SWR-1 ; SWR = Vmax/ Vmin = 52/17 = 3.05

SWR+1
Г = 3.05 – 1 = 0.51
3.05 +1
Thus : Г 2 = (0.51)2 = 0.26
The reflected power is 26 % of the incident power

QUESTION: Determine the phase-shift represented by a 75 ns delay of a 4 MHz
signal to a 75-ft cable with a dielectric constant of 2.3.
Choices:
a. 108 degrees b. 4.8 degrees c. 52 degrees d. 250 degrees

ANSWER:
a. 108 degrees
Θ = 360 td / T
T =1/f = 1 / 4MHz = 250 ns
Θ = 360 (75) / 250 = 108 degrees

QUESTION: The modulated peak value of a signal is 125V and the unmodulated
carrier value is 85V. What is the modulation index?
Choices:
a.0.47 b. 1.47 c. 0.68 d. 0.32

ANSWER:
a.0.47
m = Em/ Ec
Emax = Ec + Em ; Em = Emax – Ec = 125 – 85 = 40 V
m = 40V/ 85V = 0.47

QUESTION: The total transmitted power of an AM broadcast transmitter with a
carrier power of 50kW when modulated 80 percent is:
Choices:
a. 62.5kW b. 66W c. 66kW d. 40kW
ANSWER:
c. 66kW
Pt = Pc ( 1 + m2/2)
Pt = 50,000 ( 1 + 0.82 /2)
Pt = 66,000 W
Pt = 66kW

QUESTION: The input to an FM receiver has a S/N of 2.8. What is the frequency
deviation caused by the noise if the modulating frequency is 1.5KHz and the
permitted deviation is 4KHz?
Choices:
a. 1,460.8 Hz b. 547.8 Hz c. 2.67 Hz d. 4,107.3 Hz

ANSWER:
b. 547.8 Hz
 =  fm
 = sin -1 N/S = sin -1 1/2.8 = 0.3652
 = (0.3652)(1.5KHz) = 547.8 Hz

QUESTION: Calculate the gain (relative to an isotropic) of a parabolic antenna
that has a diameter of 3 m, an efficiency of 60% and operates at a frequency of 4
GHz.
Choices:
a. 39.8 dBi b. 41.94 dBi c. 37.66dBi d. 79.53 dBi

ANSWER:
a. 39.8 dBi
G =  2 D2/ 2
 = 3x108/ 4MHz = 0.075 m

G = 0.62(3)2
0.0752
G= 9474.8
G = 10 log 9474.8
