Analog Communication Mcqs

Q:

Data transmitted for a given amount of time is called ________

A) Noise B) Power
C) Frequency D) Bandwidth
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) Bandwidth

Explanation: A Demodulation is a process of recovering the information signal from a modulated carrier wave, in which properties of a periodic waveform is varied. A modulator is a device that performs modulation while the demodulator performs demodulation. The process of mixing a signal with a sinusoid to produce a new signal is done by a mixer.

Q:

What is Demodulation?

A) Process of varying one or more properties of a periodic waveform B) Recovering information from a modulated signal
C) Process of mixing a signal with a sinusoid to produce a new signal D) Involvement of noise
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) Recovering information from a modulated signal

Explanation: Demodulation is the process of recovering information from a modulated carrier wave while it is modulation in which properties of a periodic waveform is varied. A modulator is a device that performs modulation while the demodulator performs demodulation. A modem can perform both functions.

Q:

What do you understand by the term analog communication?

A) A method in which one of the properties of a carrier signal varies in proportion to an instantaneous value of modulation signal B) A way for data and computer communication
C) A numerical coded communication D) A suitable method for long distance communication
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) A method in which one of the properties of a carrier signal varies in proportion to an instantaneous value of modulation signal

Explanation: Analog communication means that information is transmitted in the form of a continuous signal through the process of modulation. Rests of the options are applicable for digital communication, where coding is applied.

Q:

Why a sinusoidal signal is considered analog?

A) It moves in both positive and negative direction B) It is positive for one half cycle
C) It is negative for one half cycle D) It has an infinite number of amplitudes in the range of values of the independent variable
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) It has an infinite number of amplitudes in the range of values of the independent variable

Explanation: A sinusoidal wave is an analog signal. An analog electrical signal is a signal with infinite number of amplitudes in the range of values of independent variable. Analog signals can take on any value in the continuous interval.

Q:

FM stands for ________

A) Frequency Modulation B) Frequency Modulator
C) Frequent Frequent Multiplier D) Frequency Mixer
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) Frequency Modulation

Explanation: FM stands for Frequency Modulation. It is the encoding of information on a carrier wave by varying its frequency with respect to the instantaneous amplitude of the message signal. Rest other options are the components used in the process of frequency modulation.
