Question
Distinguish between point to point and broadcast modes of communication. Give an example of each.
Solution
In point to point mode of communication, information is sent from a sender to specific receiver, i.e., from one point to another point and in broadcast mode, the information is broadcasted to all receivers simultaneously.
An example of point to point communication is a telephone where one telephone is connected to just one other at a time. A radio or television can be an example of broadcast mode where there are many receivers available at one time.

What is the function of a bandpass filter used in a modulator for obtaining AM signal?
Audio sine waves of 3 kHz frequency are used to amplitude modulate a carrier signal of 1.5 MHz. Which of the following statements are true?
- The sideband frequencies are 1506 kHz and 1494 kHz.
- The bandwidth required for amplitude modulation is 6 kHz.
- The bandwidth required for amplitude modulation is 3 MHz.
- The side band frequencies are 1503 kHz and 1497 kHz.
An audio signal is modulated by a carrier wave of 20 MHz such that the bandwidth required for modulation is 3 kHz. Could this wave be demodulated by a diode detector which has the values of R and C as
- R = 1 kΩ, C = 0.01 µF.
- R = 10 kΩ, C = 0.01 µF.
- R = 10 kΩ, C = 0.1 µF.
