An AM broadcast station operates at its maximum allowed total of 100 kW with 90% modulation. The power in the intelligence part is—
-
- 28.8 kW
- 71.2 kW
- 35.6 kW
- None of these
- 28.8 kW
Correct Option: A
Power in intelligence part, means we have to calculate the power in sideband.
Given that Pt = 100 kW
Now,
Pt = Pc | ![]() | 1 + | ![]() | |
2 |
100kW = Pc | ![]() | 1 + | ![]() | |
2 |
or
Pc = 71.2kW
Now again,
Pt = Pc+sideband power
100 = 71.2+sideband power
or
sideband power = 100-71.2 = 28.8 kW.
