An AM transmitter is coupled to an aerial. The input current is observed to be 5 A. With modulation the current value increases to 5.9 A. The depth of modulation is—
-
- 83.4%
- 88.6%
- 78.2%
- 74.3%
- 83.4%
Correct Option: B
Given that It = 5·9 A (modulated current)
Ic = 5 A (unmodulated current)
We know that
It = Ic | √ | 1 + | |

5.9 = 5 | √ | 1 + | |

or μ2 = 0.7848
or μ = 0.8858
or μ = 88.6%
