Question 1 of 27070

To produce a single-sideband suppressed carrier transmission it is necessary to ____ the carrier and to ____ the unwanted sideband.

🔍 Key Concepts

• Single-sideband (SSB) modulation and what "suppressed carrier" means • How a transmitter deals with the carrier component versus the unwanted sideband • The difference between filtering (removing by frequency selection) and cancelling (nulling a specific component)

💭 Think About

• In a suppressed carrier SSB system, what happens specifically to the carrier itself: is it reduced by frequency selection or actively nulled out? • How are extra sidebands usually removed in practical SSB transmitters: by careful frequency filtering or by phase cancellation? • Which part of the signal is very narrow and at a single frequency (making it a good candidate for cancellation), and which part occupies a wider band of frequencies (more suited to filtering)?

✅ Before You Answer

• Be clear on which operation is used on a single-frequency component (the carrier) versus a range of frequencies (the unwanted sideband). • Check which choice pairs a realistic method for handling a narrow, fixed carrier tone with a realistic method for removing a whole band of frequencies. • Eliminate options that propose doing the same action to both carrier and unwanted sideband without considering their different spectral characteristics.
