Note: This question paper contains two parts A and B.
Part A is compulsory which carries 25 marks. Answer all questions in Part A.
Part B consists of 5 Units. Answer any one full question from each unit.
PART A ( 25 Marks)
Question Bloom’s Level Example L1 And L2
1.a) Define amplitude modulation and give its time domain representation. L1
b) Compare AM, DSBSC and SSBSC modulation techniques L2
c) Give mathematical equation of SSB-SC signal and draw the spectrum. L1
