🔍 Key Concepts

• Meaning of J3E in ITU emission designators (J = single-sideband suppressed carrier, 3 = single channel analog telephony, E = telephony) • Basic methods of producing single-sideband (SSB) signals: filter method vs phase method vs high/low level modulation • Difference between high-level and low-level modulation stages in a transmitter

💭 Think About

• First, recall what the letter J indicates about the carrier in J3E and how SSB with suppressed carrier is usually generated in practice. • Think about which common SSB method starts by generating a low-power DSB signal and then removing one sideband with a filter before power amplification. • Consider which options describe techniques more associated with phase modulation or double sideband rather than straightforward SSB telephony generation.

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify which choice clearly includes a sideband filter used at a low power stage to select one sideband. • Check whether the method described would naturally produce a suppressed carrier single sideband signal appropriate for J3E voice communications. • Eliminate any options that primarily describe phase modulation rather than single-sideband generation with a filtered DSB signal.
