Note: This question paper contains two parts A and B. Part A is compulsory which carries 25 marks. Answer all questions in Part A. Part B consists of 5 Units. Answer any one full question from each unit.

Part A

125 marks
a

What are the primary resources of any communication system?

2 marks

Answer

The primary resources of any communication system are bandwidth and power. These determine the capacity and range of the communication channel.

b

Explain White noise.

3 marks

Answer

White noise is a type of random noise that has a constant power spectral density across the entire frequency spectrum. It is analogous to white light, which contains all visible frequencies, and is often modeled as Additive White Gaussian Noise (AWGN) in communication channels due to its thermal origin.

c

What are the disadvantages of conventional (or) double side band full carrier system?
