(iii) Both power and bandwidth
(iv) Only modulation index

Worked SolutionAI Assisted

Answer

Correct Option: (iii) Both power and bandwidth

Explanation

DSB-SC transmits both sidebands (2fm2f_m) with suppressed carrier → saves power vs AM but still 2fm2f_m bandwidth.

SSB suppresses one sideband + carrier → saves both 50%50\% bandwidth (fmf_m) and carrier power.

Final Answer

Both power and bandwidth → Option (iii).
