Communication Engineering - short answer questions from AMIE exams (Summer 2019)

Answer the following questions (10 x 2) What will be the value of ∇(∇xE), if the E electric field intensity? The divergence of the curl of any vector field is zero. Write the examples of noises that are not naturally occurring. Noise in a communication system is basically undesirable or unwanted signals that get randomly added to the actual information-carrying signal. Resultantly, causes disturbances in the original signal being transmitted from one end to another. So, on the basis of source noise in the communication channel are of two types: Natural noise gets generated due to either natural phenomena or atmospheric actions like solar flares, radiation in space, electronic storms etc. Internal Noise is the fundamental noise that gets generated by the electronic equipment involved in the system itself. They are called so because these are nothing but an integral part of the system. Thermal Noise   Thermal noise occurs due to the vibration of charge carriers within an electri...

Communication Engineering - short answer questions from AMIE exams (Winter 2019)

Answer all of the following questions (10 x 2) What is Digital Modulation? Digital modulation is the process of encoding a digital information signal into the amplitude, phase, or frequency of the transmitted signal. In general, a modulation technique encodes several bits into one symbol, and the rate of symbol transmission determines the bandwidth of the transmitted signal. Since the signal bandwidth is determined by the symbol rate, having a large number of bits per symbol generally yields a higher data rate for a given signal bandwidth. However, the larger the number of bits per symbol, the greater the required received SNR for a given target BER. Explain Diode Envelope detection in brief. The AM diode detector is an envelope detector – it provides an output of the envelope of the signal. As such the diode detector or demodulator is able to provide an output proportional to the amplitude of the envelope of the amplitude modulated signal. The signal diode detector consists of two mai...
