Question B-003-014-007

If a single-sideband phone transmitter is 100% modulated, what will a speech processor do to the transmitter's power?

Correct Answer

It will add nothing to the output Peak Envelope Power (PEP)

Explanation

Speech processing increases the *average* power by making softer sounds louder, but it does not (and should not) increase the *peak* power (PEP), which is determined by the amplifier's limits.
