Assertion (A): Assertion: Pulse width modulation has better noise immunity than pulse amplitude modulation.

Reason (R): Reason: Its pulse amplitude is constant, so the receiver may limit the pulses.

Select the correct answer from the options below.

  • A.A is false but R is true
  • B.Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation of A
  • C.Both A and R are true, but R is not the correct explanation of A
  • D.A is true but R is false

Answer: B

Both hold and the second explains the first: because amplitude carries nothing, clipping the pulses to a standard height discards amplitude noise without losing information. It is exactly the argument that gives frequency modulation its advantage over amplitude modulation, applied to a pulse train instead of a carrier. The same asymmetry between signal and noise is being exploited in both cases.
