Find the modulation index of an AM wave having 8 V variation where maximum amplitude of the AM wave is 9 V .

Options

  1. A0 . 8
  2. B0 . 5
  3. C0 . 2
  4. D0 . 1

Correct answer

A. 0 . 8

Step-by-step solution

Modulation index is given by m = A m A c , where, A m is amplitude of modulating signal and A c is amplitude of carrier signal. Given: 2 A m = 8 A m + A c = 9 ⇒ A c = 5 ∴ m = 4 5 = 0 . 8
