Assertion (A): Assertion: Pulse position modulation is more efficient in power than pulse width modulation.

Reason (R): Reason: All its pulses are of the same short duration.

Select the correct answer from the options below.

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

Answer: A

Both are true and the second is the reason: identical short pulses mean the average transmitted power is low and independent of the modulation, whereas a width-modulated train's power rises with its average duty cycle. The efficiency is bought with a stricter timing requirement, which is the standard shape of these trades. Where a scheme's average power does not depend on the message, the transmitter can be sized for the average rather than the worst case.
