  1. If the carrier of a 100 per cent modulated AM wave is suppressed, the percentage power saving will be—
    1. 50
    2. 150
    3. 100
    4. 66.66
Correct Option: D

Given, modulation index, μ = 100% = 1

% Power saving = Power saved× 100
Total power

= Pc =
Pc
× 100
PtPc( 1+ μ2/2)

=
2
× 100 =
2
× 100
2 + μ22 + 1

= 2× 100
3

= 66.67%
