A speech signal of 3 kHz is used to modulate a carrier signal of frequency 1 MHz , using amplitude modulation. The frequencies of the side bands will be

Options

  1. A1.003 MHz and 0.997 MHz
  2. B3001 kHz and 2997 kHz
  3. C1003 kHz and 1000 kHz
  4. D1.0 MHz and 0.997 MHz

Correct answer

A. 1.003 MHz and 0.997 MHz

Step-by-step solution

Frequency of carrier signal, f_c=1 MHz Frequency of message (speech) signal, f_m=3 kHz =0.003 MHz Frequency of upper side band =f_c+f_m =1+0.003=1.003 MHz Frequency of lower side band =f_c-f_m =1-0.003=0.997 MHz
