What does the capture effect suppress?

  • A.The noise in the upper part of the baseband
  • B.Amplitude modulation on the wanted carrier
  • C.The image frequency ahead of the mixer
  • D.The weaker of two co-channel signals

Answer: D

It suppresses the weaker co-channel signal, so the listener hears one programme cleanly rather than two mixed. Baseband noise is dealt with by de-emphasis, amplitude modulation by the limiter, and the image by preselection. Four mechanisms for four different impairments, and attributing an effect to the wrong one is the commonest error in questions on FM noise performance.
