Peak-Envelope Power (PEP) for SSB transmission is:
- A equal to the RMS power
- B a hypothetical measurement
- C Peak-Envelope Voltage (PEV) multiplied when by 0.707, squared and divided by the load resistance
- D peak-voltage multiplied by peak current
Correct answer: C — Peak-Envelope Voltage (PEV) multiplied when by 0.707, squared and divided by the load resistance. From the official ISED question bank, verified word for word.
Why
For a single-sideband signal, the peak voltage at the envelope's highest point is called Peak-Envelope Voltage. The full explanation — and one for every question — is in Pro.
