  • question_answer
    If the maximum amplitude of an amplitude modulated wave is 25 V and the minimum amplitude is 5 V, the modulation index is

    A) \[\frac{1}{5}\]              

    B) \[\frac{1}{3}\]

    C) \[\frac{3}{2}\]              

    D) \[\frac{2}{3}\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    [d]: Maximum amplitude,\[{{A}_{\max }}={{A}_{c}}+{{A}_{m}}\]       ...(i) Minimum amplitude, \[{{A}_{\min }}={{A}_{c}}-{{A}_{m}}\]   ...(ii) Solving (i) and (ii), we get \[{{A}_{c}}=\frac{{{A}_{\max }}+{{A}_{\min }}}{2},{{A}_{m}}=\frac{{{A}_{\max }}-{{A}_{\min }}}{2}\] Modulation index, \[\mu =\frac{{{A}_{m}}}{{{A}_{c}}}=\frac{{{A}_{\max }}-{{A}_{\min }}}{{{A}_{\max }}+{{A}_{\min }}}\] \[\mu =\frac{25V-5V}{25V+5V}=\frac{20}{30}=\frac{2}{3}\]
