Which scheme puts the greatest demand on transmitter frequency accuracy?

  • A.Vestigial sideband, because of the filter shaping
  • B.SSB, because the receiver has no carrier to track
  • C.Full-carrier AM, because the carrier must be exact
  • D.DSB-SC, because both sidebands must align

Answer: B

With no transmitted carrier and no symmetry to lock to, an SSB receiver can only set its reinserted carrier from its own dial, so any transmitter frequency error appears directly as an audio pitch shift. Both ends must therefore be accurate. Full-carrier AM is envelope detected and tolerant. DSB-SC provides a symmetric spectrum that a Costas loop can lock to, which relieves the requirement. And vestigial sideband retains a carrier for the receiver to follow.
