List-I
A. Double spotting
B. Sensitivity
C. Fidelity
D. Selectivity
List-II
1. Ability to reproduce all the modulating frequencies equally.
2. Occurs due to inadequate image-frequency rejection.

2. Occurs due to inadequate image-frequency rejection.
3. Ability to rejected unwanted signal.
4. Ability to amplify weak signals.
Assertion (A): The figure of merit of a receiver is always more than unity.
Reason (R): The figure of merit must be as high as possible because higher value of figure of merit indicates better noise performance of the receiver.
Reason (R): The figure of merit must be as high as possible because higher value of figure of merit indicates better noise performance of the receiver.
Detailed Solution: Question 5
The sensitivity of a superheterodyne receiver does not depend on
Detailed Solution: Question 6
Consider the following statements:
1. The figure of merit of DSB-SC and SSB receivers with coherent detection is 1.
2. The figure of merit of an AM receiver with envelope detection is more than 1.
3. If the average modulated signal power and the average noise power in the message bandwidth is same as that of DSB-SCreceiver then the output SNR and figure of merit of SSB coherent receiver is same as that of the DSB SC receiver.
4. A square-law demodulator operates above threshold on a weaker signal than with an envelope demodulator.
Which of the above statements are correct?

Detailed Solution: Question 9
The main function of a radio receiver is to
1. amplify the modulating frequency signal.
2. amplify the selected R.F. (radio frequency) signal.
3. select the desired signal and reject the unwanted signals.
4. intercept the incoming modulated signal by the receiving antenna.
5. detect the modulated signal to get back the original modulating or baseband signal.
Of these, the correct statements are:
1. amplify the modulating frequency signal.
2. amplify the selected R.F. (radio frequency) signal.
3. select the desired signal and reject the unwanted signals.
4. intercept the incoming modulated signal by the receiving antenna.
5. detect the modulated signal to get back the original modulating or baseband signal.
Of these, the correct statements are:
