This document is an exam paper for an Analog Communications course. It contains two parts - Part A with short answer questions worth 25 marks total, and Part B with longer answer questions worth 50 marks total. Part A covers topics like amplitude modulation, modulation index, AM waveforms, comparing AM types, thermal noise power calculation. Part B questions cover derivations and explanations of amplitude modulation, single sideband generation, angle modulation, frequency modulation expressions, pre-emphasis/de-emphasis circuits, noise temperature, pulse modulation types, and automatic gain control circuits.
