A square wave of the modulating signal is shown in the figure. The carrier wave is given by C(t)=5sin(8πt) Volt. The modulation index is:
(A)0.2✓ Correct
(B)0.1
(C)0.3
(D)0.4
Answer: (A)
Solution
The modulation index is defined as μ=AcAm, where Am is the amplitude of the modulating signal and Ac is the amplitude of the carrier wave. From the figure, Am=1 V, and from the carrier wave equation, Ac=5 V. Therefore μ=51=0.2.
