This set of Analog Communications Multiple Choice Questions & Answers (MCQs) focuses on “Applications of SSB”.

1. What is the purpose of peak clipper circuits in radios?
a) prevent overmodulation
b) reduce bandwidth
c) increase bandwidth
d) regulate oscillator input voltage
View Answer

Answer: a
Explanation: Clipper is used to prevent the output of a circuit from exceeding a predetermined voltage. It does not distorted the remaining part of the applied waveform.

2. In FM receiver, role of amplitude limiter is to reduce the amplitude of signals.
a) True
b) False
View Answer

Answer: b
Explanation: Role of amplitude limiter in frequency modulation is to eliminate any change in amplitude of received FM signals.

3. Balanced modulator is used to suppress carrier signal to create an SSB or DSB.
a) True
b) False
View Answer

Answer: b
Explanation: Balanced modulator is used to produce 100% modulation.

4. What is the main function of a balanced modulator?
a) to limit the noise picked by a receiver
b) to produce balanced modulation of a carrier wave
c) to suppress carrier signal
d) to produce 100% modulation
View Answer

Answer: d
Explanation: For achieving 100% modulation, balanced modulator is mainly used in circuits.

6. Varacter diode modulator is an indirect way of generating FM.
a) True
b) False
View Answer

Answer: b
Explanation: Varacter diode modulator is not an indirect way of generating FM. It is a Armstrong modulator which is an indirect way of generating FM.
