SC. What happens when there i s phase mismatch? (8)
OR
11. (b) (i) Explain the concept of Frequency Translation. (4)

imum frequency deviation i s 100 kHz. Determine the modulation index
and approximate bandwidth of the FM signal for the following modulating
signal frequencies,

ampli¯er that has a noise ¯gure of 9 dB and an available power gain of 15
dB. Calculate the overall noise ¯gure referred to the input. (8)
(ii) A receiver has a noise ¯gure of 12 dB and it is fed by a low noise ampli¯er
that has a gain of 50 dB and a noise temperature of 90 K. Calculate the
noise temperature of the receiver and the overall noise temperature of the
receiving system. Take room temperature as 290 K. (8)

threshold reduction by FMFB demodulator. (16)
15. (a) (i) An Analog signal i s band limited to `B' Hz and sampled at Nyquist rate.
The sampled signals are quantized into 4 levels. Each level represents
one message. The probability of occurrence of the four messages are
p1=p3=1/8; p2=p4=3/8. Find out information rate of the source. (6)
