VSB Transmitter
Given
- VSB transmitted power, PVSB = 0.625 kW
- Modulation index, m = 0.6
- Vestige = 25% = 0.25
VSB Power Equation
For a VSB transmitter:
PVSB =
m2 / 4
Pc(1 + 0.25)
Substituting the given values:
0.625 =
(0.6)2 / 4
Pc(1.25)
Therefore,
Pc =
(0.625 × 4) / (0.36 × 1.25)
Pc = 5.56 kW
Answer: B (5.56 kW)
