Which measurement distinguishes carrier suppression from sideband suppression?

  • A.Whether the measurement is expressed in decibels or as a plain power ratio
  • B.Whether a spectrum analyser or a power meter is used
  • C.Whether the residual line sits at the carrier frequency or in the unwanted sideband
  • D.Whether the transmitter is driven with one tone or with two of equal level

Answer: C

The two residues appear at different frequencies: the carrier residue exactly at the suppressed carrier, the sideband residue mirrored on the other side of it, so a spectrum display separates them immediately. A single tone suffices for both. The units are a matter of presentation. And a power meter cannot resolve either, which is why the measurement is spectral.
