2. The mixer in a superheterodyne receiver, receives the AM signal in the range 0.535 MHz to 1.605 MHz.
It is required to translate the signal to a fixed intermediate frequency (IF) of 0.455 MHz. Find the range
of tuning that must be provided in the local oscillator to achieve this requirement.

3. Consider a message signal m(t) with the spectrum shown in the figure below. The message signal
bandwidth is W = 1 kHz. It is applied to a DSB-SC modulator with a carrier frequency of 50 kHz. Draw
the spectrum of the modulated signal.

4. A DSBSC modulated signal transmitted over a noisy channel with the power spectral density of the
noise as shown below. The message bandwidth W = 4 kHz and the carrier frequency is 200 kHz.
Assuming that the average power of the modulated wave is 10 watts, determine the output signal to
noise ratio of the receiver.

5. A sinusoidal modulating of amplitude 5 V, and frequency 1 kHz is applied to a frequency modulator.

The frequency sensitivity of the modulator is 40 Hz/V. Carrier frequency is 100 kHz. Calculate the
frequency deviation and modulation index.
