Problems & solutions
When a superheterodyne receiver is tuned to 555 kHz, its local oscillator provides the mixer
with an input at 1010 kHz. What is the image frequency? The antenna at the receiver is
connected to the mixer via a tuned circuit whose loaded Q is 40. What will be the rejection ratio
for the calculated image frequency?
In a broadcast superheterodyne receiver having no RF ampli er, the loaded
Q of the antenna coupling circuit is 100. If the IF is 455 kHz, determine
(i) the image frequency and its rejection ratio for tuning at 1100 kHz
(ii) the image frequency and its rejection ratio for tuning at 25 MHz

A FM transmitter using the direct method of generation of WBFM, is
using a varactor diode modulator which produces a frequency
deviation of 2.5 kHz per volt. The maximum deviation produced by
the modulator is 360 Hz. The modulator is followed by a bu er and a
tripler, doubler and tripler for frequency multiplication.
(a) Can this transmitter produce a 6 kHz peak deviation at the
output?
(b) If the inal carrier frequency is to be 180 MHz, what should be
the oscillator frequency?
(c) What is the audio voltage to be applied to the varactor to obtain
the full deviation at the output?
