Question 21 Discuss

An analog signal has a maximum frequency component of 4 kHz. What is its Nyquist sampling rate?

A
2 kHz
B
4 kHz
C
8 kHz
D
16 kHz

Answer & Explanation

Correct Option: C

The Nyquist rate is twice the maximum frequency component. Fs = 2 * Fm = 2 * 4 kHz = 8 kHz.
Question 22 Discuss

Which process in analog-to-digital conversion introduces irreversible error or noise into the signal?

A
Sampling
B
Quantization
C
Encoding
D
Multiplexing

Answer & Explanation

Correct Option: B

Quantization maps continuous amplitude values to discrete levels, permanently losing exact amplitude information (quantization noise).
Question 23 Discuss

A PCM system samples a signal at 8 kHz and uses an 8-bit encoder. What is the resulting bit rate?

A
8 kbps
B
16 kbps
C
32 kbps
D
64 kbps

Answer & Explanation

Correct Option: D

Bit rate (Rb) = n * Fs = 8 bits/sample * 8000 samples/sec = 64,000 bps = 64 kbps.
Question 24 Discuss

In digital communication, what is the primary advantage of Pulse Position Modulation (PPM) over Pulse Amplitude Modulation (PAM)?

A
Lower bandwidth requirement
B
Higher immunity to amplitude noise
C
Simpler circuitry
D
Ability to carry analog signals natively

Answer & Explanation

Correct Option: B

PPM conveys information via the position of the pulse, not its height, making it highly resistant to additive amplitude noise.
Question 25 Discuss

In mobile networks, what type of handoff requires a mobile station to simultaneously communicate with both the old and new base stations?

A
Hard handoff
B
Soft handoff
C
Cellular handoff
D
Roaming handoff

Answer & Explanation

Correct Option: B

Soft handoff is a 'make-before-break' approach used heavily in CDMA, allowing dual connection to prevent dropping the call.
Question 26 Discuss

Calculate the frequency reuse factor (cluster size) N if the shift parameters are i=2 and j=1.

A
3
B
4
C
7
D
9

Answer & Explanation

Correct Option: C

N = i^2 + ij + j^2 = 2^2 + (2)(1) + 1^2 = 4 + 2 + 1 = 7.
Question 27 Discuss

The Global System for Mobile communications (GSM) utilizes which combination of multiple access techniques?

A
FDMA and CDMA
B
TDMA and CDMA
C
FDMA and TDMA
D
SDMA and FDMA

Answer & Explanation

Correct Option: C

GSM divides the frequency band into carriers (FDMA) and then divides each carrier into 8 time slots (TDMA).
Question 28 Discuss

The 'Near-Far problem' is a significant challenge primarily associated with which mobile communication system?

A
GSM
B
CDMA
C
AMPS
D
TACS

Answer & Explanation

Correct Option: B

In CDMA, all users share the same frequency. A strong signal from a nearby mobile can drown out a weak signal from a distant one, requiring strict power control.
Question 29 Discuss

What is the main objective of implementing cell sectoring in a mobile cellular network?

A
To increase the transmission power
B
To reduce co-channel interference
C
To decrease the number of base stations
D
To eliminate handoffs completely

Answer & Explanation

Correct Option: B

Replacing an omnidirectional antenna with directional antennas (sectors) limits the interference to and from co-channel cells.
Question 30 Discuss

In optical fiber communication, what parameter dictates the light-gathering capability of the fiber?

A
Dispersion
B
Attenuation
C
Numerical Aperture
D
Cut-off wavelength

Answer & Explanation

Correct Option: C

Numerical Aperture (NA) determines the maximum angle at which light can enter the fiber and undergo total internal reflection.
