A 50 kW carrier is to be amplitude modulated to a level of 85%. What is the carrier power after modulation ?

Correct answer: A. 50 kW

  • A. 50 kW
  • B. 5 kW
  • C. 8 kW
  • D. 25 kW

Explanation

In amplitude modulation, the carrier power remains constant at all modulation depths; only the sideband power changes. Therefore the carrier remains 50 kW, while 85% modulation increases the sideband power.
