17. Prove that the power contained in the carrier component of Double Sideband Full
Carrier (DSBFC) system is 2/3 of the total transmitted power when the coefficient of
modulation m is 1.
18. State four (4) advantages and two (2) disadvantages of a Single Sideband (SSB) system
compared to a conventional AM system.
19. One common configuration for SSB transmitter is known as a filter method.
i) Draw a block diagram of a single-conversion transmitter for SSB suppressed
carrier (SSBSC) system.
ii) Consequently, draw the ouput spectrum of the transmitter given that the
frequency of modulating signal is 0 – 5 kHz and the carrier frequency is 30 MHz.
iii) Explain the disadvantage of this type of transmitter and suggest the possible
solution for it.
