Which receiver specification does the noise figure most directly determine?

  • A.Selectivity
  • B.Capture ratio
  • C.Image rejection
  • D.Sensitivity

Answer: D

Sensitivity follows from noise figure and noise bandwidth together, since the weakest usable signal is the one that exceeds the noise floor by the required ratio. Selectivity and image rejection are filtering properties. Capture ratio is a limiter and discriminator property peculiar to FM. Each figure of merit traces back to a different part of the receiver, and the noise figure's territory is the weak-signal end. Framing the question as which quantity the change acts upon makes the answer follow without calculation.
