Question B-003-014-006

What is the reason for using a properly adjusted speech processor with a single-sideband phone transmitter?

Correct Answer

It improves signal intelligibility at the receiver

Explanation

Speech processing (like compression) increases the average power of the SSB signal without increasing the peak power, making the voice sound louder and easier to understand at the receiving end, especially under weak signal conditions.
