Consider a message signal
which is bandlimited to
, where
is in Hz. Consider the following two modulation schemes for the message signal:
- Double sideband-suppressed carrier (DSB-SC):
- Amplitude modulation (AM):
Here,
and
are the amplitude and frequency (in Hz) of the carrier, respectively. In the case of AM,
denotes the modulation index.
Consider the following statements:
(i) An envelope detector can be used for demodulation in the DSB-SC scheme if
for all
.
(ii) An envelope detector can be used for demodulation in the AM scheme only if
for all
.
Which of the following options is/are correct?
is TRUE
is FALSE
is TRUE
is FALSE
As long as
, envelop detector can be used to detect
and
signals
mentions the word "can", this true as
can at times ensure 
(D) mention the word "only", it is not a must condition for
, only the bound is on
, thus:
is wrong.
