A modulating signal is a square wave, as shown in the figure. If the carrier wave is given as c t = 2 sin 8 π t volts, the modulation index is:
Options
- A1 4
- B1
- C1 3
- D1 2
Correct answer
D. 1 2
Step-by-step solution
Modulation index ' μ ' is related to amplitude of modulation signal ' A m ' and amplitude of carrier wave ' A c ' as: μ = A m A c Now, from graph A m = 1   V and from equation of carrier wave A c = 2   V . Therefore, μ = 1 2 .
