1 MAHALAKSHMI ENGINEERING COLLEGE-TRICHY QUESTION BANK SATELLITE COMMUNICATION DEPT./SEM.:ECE/VIII UNIT IV PART-A 1. What are the advantages of the super heterodyne receiver over TRF receiver? (AUC MAY 2004) The superhetrodyne receiver has the following advantages on TRF receivers, (i) Improved selectivity in terms of adjacent channels. (ii) More uniform selectivity in terms of adjacent channels. (iii) Improved receiver stability. (iv) Higher gain per stage because IF amplifiers are operated at a lower frequency. (v) Uniform band width because of fixed intermediate frequency. These advantages make them suitable for most of the radio receiver applications such as AM, FM, SSB, communications, TV and radar receivers 2. What is FM threshold effect? (AUC DEC 2011)(AUC MAY 2010)(AUC MAY 2004) As the input noise power is increased the carrier to noise ratio is decreased the receiver breaks and as the carrier to noise ratio is reduced further crackling sound is heard and the output SNR cannot be predicted by the equation. This phenomenon is known as threshold effect. It is also defined as when the SNR becomes even slightly less than unity, an impulse of noise is generated. This noise impulse appears at the output of the detector in the form of click sound. If the SNR ratio is further decreased so that the ratio is moderately less than unity, the impulses are generated rapidly and clicks merge in to spluttering sound. This phenomenon is known as threshold effect. 3. Draw the pre emphasis circuit

2 4. What is meant by figure of merit of a receiver? (AUC NOV 2006) Figure of merit = (SNR)o/(SNR)c 5. What is the purpose of pre-emphasis and de-emphasis in FM? (AUC NOV 2006, AUC MAY 2007, AUC NOV 2007) Noise at the higher-modulating signal frequencies is inherently greater in amplitude than noise at the lower frequencies. i.e the higher - modulating-signal frequencies have a lower signal-to-noise ration than the lower frequencies. To compensate for this, the high- frequency modulating signals are emphasized or boosted in amplitude in the transmitter. To compensate for this boost, the high-frequency signals are attenuated or deemphasized in the receiver after demodulation has been performed. 6. What is threshold effect with respect to noise? (AUC MAY 2007) The loss of the message signal x (t) in an envelope detector due to the presence of the large noise is known as the Threshold effect. The threshold effect is also defined as when a noise is large compared to the signal at the input of the envelope detector, the detected output has a message signal completely mingled with noise. it means that if the i/p signal to noise ratio(s i /N i ) is below a certain level called threshold level. 7. What do you understand by capture effect in FM? (AUC MAY 2012)(AUC MAY 2008) When the interference is stronger then it will suppress the desired FM input. When the interference signal and FM input are of equal strength, the receiver fluctuates back and forth between them.this phenomenon is known as the capture effect. We may also define as in low noise case; the distortion produced by the noise at the o/p of FM detector is negligible in comparison to the desired modulating signal. And noise almost suppressed by the signal. This phenomenon is called as capture effect. 8. Compare the noise performance of AM and FM systems.(auc MAY 2009)(AUC MAY 2008) The figure of merit of AM system is 1/3 when the modulation is 100 percent and that of FM is (3/2) mf2.the use of FM offers improved noise performance over AM when (3/2)mf2 > 1/3.mf â modulation index in FM. 9.

Where mf modulation index in FM. 10.

Where mf modulation index in FM. What are the characteristics of super heterodyne receivers? (AUC MAY 2010) 1. Greater gain thus better sensitivity

3 2. Improved image frequency rejection 3. Better signal to noise ration 4. Better selectivity 11. What do you understand by FM stereo multiplexing?(auc MAY 2009) 12. What are the methods to improve FM threshold reduction?(auc MAY 2010) 1. Preemphasis and deemphasis 2. FMFB(Frequency modulation with feedback) 13. Define pre-emphasis and de-emphasis.(auc DEC 2010) Noise at the higher-modulating signal frequencies is inherently greater in amplitude than noise at the lower frequencies. i.e the higher - modulating-signal frequencies have a lower signal-to-noise ration than the lower frequencies. To compensate for this, the high- frequency modulating signals are emphasized or boosted in amplitude in the transmitter. To compensate for this boost, the high-frequency signals are attenuated or deemphasized in the receiver after demodulation has been performed. 14. Compare the noise performance of DSBSC receiver using coherent detection with AM (AUC MAY 2011) Parameter Am receiver using envelope DSBSC reciver using Detection coherent detection Noise performance Poor Good noise performance then AM Bandwidth 2Fm 2Fm Theresholf AM exhibit a threshold No threshold effects for low (Si/Ni) (SNR)o& (SNR)c (SNR)o= (SNR)o= (SNR)c ma 2 /2+ ma 2 (SNR)c 15. What are the methods to improve FM threshold reduction? (AUC MAY 2011)

4 Threshold reduction is achieved in FM system by using an FM demodulator with negative feedback or by using a phase locked loop demodulator. Such devices are referred to as extended-threshold demodulators. 16. Define threshold effect in AM receiver.(auc DEC 2010) (AUC DEC 2011) The loss of the message signal x (t) in an envelope detector due to the presence of the large noise is known as the Threshold effect. The threshold effect is also defined as when a noise is large compared to the signal at the input of the envelope detector, the detected output has a message signal completely mingled with noise. it means that if the i/p signal to noise ratio(s i /N i ) is below a certain level called threshold level. 17. Determine the range of tuning of a local oscillator of a super Heterodyne receiver when f LO >f c. The broadcast frequency range is 540Hz to 1600 Hz. Assume F if =445kHz Fs=1000kHz Fo=545kHz Fi=Fs-Fo =455kHz 18. In a super hetrodyne receiver with no RF section, the loaded Q of the antenna circuit is 112.

The superhetrodyne receiver has the following advantages on TRF receivers, (i) Improved selectivity in terms of adjacent channels. (ii) More uniform selectivity in terms of adjacent channels. (iii) Improved receiver stability. (iv) Higher gain per stage because IF amplifiers are operated at a lower frequency. (v) Uniform band width because of fixed intermediate frequency.

8 2. (i) Explain the capture effect and FM threshold effect. FM Threshold Effect: The output signal to noise ratio of FM receiver is valid only if the carrier to noise ratio is measured at the discriminator input is high compared to unity. It is observed that as the input noise is increased so that the carrier to noise ratio decreased, the FM receiver breaks. At first individual clicks are heard in the receiveroutputand as the carrier to noise ratio decreases still further, the clicks rapidly mergein to a crackling or sputtering sound.near the break point eqn8.50 begins to fail

9 predicting values of output SNR largerthan the actual ones. This phenomenonis known as the threshold effect.the threshold effect is defined as the minimum carrier to noise ratio that givest he output SNR not less than the value predicted by the usual signal to noise formula assuming a small noise power. For a qualitative discussion of the FM threshold effect, Consider, when there is no signal present, so that the carrier is unmodulated. Thenthe composite signal at the frequency discriminator input is x(t) = [Ac +ni(t)] cos 2_fct nq(t) sin 2_fct Where ni(t) and nq(t) are inphase and quadrature component of the narrow band noise n(t) with respect tocarrier wave Accos 2_fct. The phasor diagram of fig8.17 below shows the phase relations b/n the various components of x(t) As the amplitudes and phases of ni(t) and nq(t) change randomly with time the point P wanders around the point Q. When the carrier to noise ratio is large ni(t) and nq(t) are small compared to Ac, so that point P always around Q. Thus the angle _(t) small and within a multiple of 2_ radians.

Using super heterodyne principle, draw the block diagram of AM radio(auc MAY 2006) (ii)using super heterodyne principle, draw the block diagram of AM radio receiver and briefly explain it (AUC MAY 2011) Explain the working of super heterodyne receiver. (AUC MAY 2006) An AM receiver processes amplitude-modulated signals received by its antenna. It delivers an outpu tthat is a reproduction of the signal that originally modulated the rf carrier at the transmitter. The signal can then be applied to some reproducing device, such as a loudspeaker, or to a terminal device, such as ateletypewriter. Actual AM receivers vary widely in complexity. Some are very simple; others contain a large number of complex circuits. FUNCTIONS Selection Selection is the ability of the receiver to select a particular frequency of a station from all other station frequencies appearing at the antenna of the receiver. Detection Detection is the action of separating the low (audio) frequency intelligence from the high (radio) frequency carrier. A detector circuit is used to accomplish this action. Reproduction Reproduction is the action of converting the electrical signals to sound waves, which can then be interpreted by your ear as speech, music, and the like. An example of this might be the stereo speakers in your car. RECEIVER CHARACTERISTICS

22 Sensitivity, noise, selectivity, and fidelity are important receiver characteristics. These characteristics will be useful to you when performing receiver tests. They can help you to determine whether a receiver is working or not or in comparing one receiver to another. Sensitivity The ability of a receiver to reproduce weak signals is a function of the sensitivity of a receiver. The weaker a signal that can be applied to a receiver and still produce a certain value of signal output, the better the sensitivity rating. Sensitivity of a receiver is measured under standardized conditions. It is expressed in terms of the signal voltage, usually in the micro volts that must be applied to the antenna input terminals to give an established level of the output. The output may be an ac or dc voltage measured at the detector output or a power measurement (measured in decibels or watts) at the loudspeaker or headphone terminals. Noise All receivers generate a certain amount of noise, which you must take into account when measuring sensitivity. Receiver noise may originate from the atmosphere (lightning) or from internal components (transistors, tubes). Noise is the limiting factor of sensitivity. You will find sensitivity is the value of input carrier voltage (in microvolts) that must be applied from the signal generator to the receiver input to develop a specified output power. Selectivity Selectivity is the degree of distinction made by the receiver between the desired signal and unwanted signals. You will find the better the ability of the receiver to reject unwanted signals, the better its selectivity. The degree of selection is determined by the sharpness of resonance to which the frequency determining circuits have been engineered and tuned. You usually measure selectivity by taking a series of sensitivity readings. As you take the readings, you step the input signal along a band of frequencies above and below the circuit resonance of the receiver; for example, 100 kilohertz below to 100 kilohertz2-11 above the tuned frequency. As the tuned frequency, the input level required to maintain a given output level will fall. As you pass the tuned frequency, the required input level will rise. Input voltage levels are then compared with frequency. They can be plotted on paper or you might view them on an oscilloscope. They would appear in the form of a response curve. The steepness of the response curve at the tuned frequency indicates the selectivity of the receiver. Fidelity The fidelity of a receiver is its ability to accurately reproduce, in its output, the signal that

23 appears at its input. You will usually find the broader the band passed by frequency selection circuits, the greater your fidelity. You may measure fidelity by modulating an input frequency with a series of audio frequencies; you then plot the output measurements at each step against the audio input frequencies. The resulting curve will show the limits of reproduction. You should remember that good selectivity requires that a receiver pass a narrow frequency band. Good fidelity requires that the receiver pass a broader band to amplify the outermost frequencies of the sidebands. Receivers you find in general use are a compromise between good selectivity and high fidelity. SUPERHETERODYNE RECEIVER The super heterodyne is the type receiver most familiar to you. You probably see one daily in your home in the form of an AM and/or fm radio. We will discuss the basic workings of both AM and fm types and their differences. Amplitude Modulation Receiver developed to overcome the disadvantages of earlier type receivers. Let s assume you are tuning the receiver. When doing this you are actually changing the frequency to which the rf amplifier is tuned. The rf carrier comes in from the antenna and is applied to the rf amplifier. The output of the amplifier is an amplified carrier and is sent to the mixer. The mixer also receives an input from the local oscillator. These two signals are beat together to obtain the IF through the process of heterodyning. this time you should note the dotted lines connecting the local oscillator, rf amplifier, and the mixer. This is used on block diagrams and schematics to indicate GANGED TUNING. Ganged tuning is the process used to tune two or more circuits with a single control. In our example, change the frequency of the receiver all three stages change by the same amount. There is a fixed difference in frequency between the local oscillator and the rf amplifier at all times. This difference in frequency is the IF. This fixed difference and ganged tuning ensures a constant IF over the frequency range of the receiver. Figure. AM super heterodyne receiver and waveforms.

24 The IF carrier is applied to the IF amplifier. The amplified IF carrier is then sent to the detector. The output of the detector is the audio component of the input signal. This audio component is then passed through an audio frequency amplifier. The amplified audio component is sent to a speaker for reproduction. This allows you to hear the signal. Super heterodyne receiver may have more than one frequency-converting stage and as many amplifiers as needed to obtain the desired power output. 10. Discuss the effects of noise on the carrier in FM receiver with suitable mathematical derivation. (AUC MAY 2012) Discuss about the noise performance of an FM receiver to evaluate its figure of merit.
