Angle modulation for ESE
Q.1 De emphasis is the process of
a) reducing the relative amplitude of certain frequencies in a signal.
b) reducing the frequency component of certain frequencies in a signal.
c) amplified the certain frequencies
d) Reducing Noise
Ans : a
Solution : De emphasis is a process of reducing the relative amplitude of certain frequencies in
a signal that have been exaggerated by pre emphasis restoring the signal to its orginal form.
Hence the correct option is (a)
Q.2 if Figure of merit of FM signal is incremented by four fold then
a) β will be thrice
b) β will be doubled
c) β remains unchanged
d) β will be four fold
Ans : b
Solution : FOM.of FM is
FOM = 1.5 β²
if FOM is four fold then β becomes double
Hence correct option is (b)
Q.3 Consider the statements regarding the FM

a) 1 and 2
b) 2 and 3
c) 1 and 3
d) 1,2 and 3
Ans : d
Solution : The advantage of FM over AM is
1.better noise imumnity
2. Low bandwidth requirement
3. Less modulating power is required
Hence the correct option is (d)
Q.4 Consider the statement regarding the generation of FM
1. Reactance FET modulator
2. Varactor diode modulator
3. Armstrong modulator
4. Recatance tube modulator
Select the correct answer using the code given below
a) 1 and 2
b) 2 and 3
c) 3 and 4
d) 1,2,3 and 4
Ans : All the FM generation method in which armstrong is a indirect method all other is direct
method
Hence the correct option is (d)
Q.5 Assertion (A) : For a same modulation depth the FM and PM produces the different sets of
frequency range.
Reason (R) : Carrier phase angle or its rate is varied in PM and FM.
a) A and R both are true but R is the correct explanation of A
b) A and R both are true but R is not the correct explanation of A
c) A is true but R is false
d) A is false but R is true.
Ans : a
Solution : For a same modulation depth the FM and PM produces the different sets of frequency
range because Carrier phase angke or its rate is varied in PM and FM.
Hence the correct option is (a)
Q.6 The modulation index under carrier swing of 100 kHz and message signal frequency is 8
kHz for FM
a) 12.5
b) 7.5
c) 6.25
d) 15
Ans : Carrier Swing ⇒ 2 Δf = 100
Δf = 50 kHz
fm = 8 kHz
modulation index β = Δf/fm = 100/8 =6.25
Hence the correct option is (c)
Q.7 A single tone frequency of 2 kHz and frequency deviation of 20kHz is phase modualted then
bandwidth of PM signal (assume phase deviation remains unchanged)
a) 20 kHz
b) 32 kHz
c) 22 kHz
d) 44 kHz
Ans : d
Solution :
Δf = 20 kHz
fm = 2kHz
BW = 2( Δf + fm)
BW = 2 ( 20+2)
BW = 44 kHz
Hence the correct option is (d)
Q.8 Assertion (A) : In PM, the instantaneous amplitude of modulating signal change the phase
of the carrier signal.
Reason (R) : When the amplitude is postive then phase change in one direction and amplitude is
negative then phase change in opposite direction.
a) A and R both are true but R is the correct explanation of A
b) A and R both are true but R is not the correct explanation of A
c) A is true but R is false
d) A is false but R is true.
Ans : b
Solution : In PM, the instantaneous amplitude of modulating signal change the phase of the
carrier signal.When the amplitude is postive then phase change in one direction and amplitude
is negative then phase change in opposite direction.
Hence the correct option is (b)
Q.9 An armstrong FM modulation system use primary oscillation frequency is 1MHz and
modulating frequency of 100Hz if it provide maximum phase deviation of 10° for good linearity
then maximum frequency deviation is
a) 12.24 Hz
b) 17.45 Hz
c) 20.22 Hz
d) 24.43 Hz
Ans : b
Solution : Maximum phase deviation is
10° = π/180 x 10 = π/18
Maximum frequency deviation
Δf = Maximum phase x fm
Δf = π/18 x 100 = 17.45 Hz
Hence the correct option is (b)
Q.10 Carrier swing of FM signal when resting frequency and upper frequency is 105 MHz and
110 MHz respectively.
a) 20 MHz
b) 5 MHz
c) 10 MHz
d) 15 MHz
Ans : c
Solution : Frequency deviation Δf = (110 - 105) = 5 MHz
Carrier Swing = 2Δf = 10 MHz
Hence the correct option is (c)
