To compute one of the following, multiply the peak-envelope voltage by 0.707 to obtain the RMS value, square the result and divide by the load resistance. Which is the correct answer?
- AERP
- Bpower factor
- CPEP
- DPIV
Correct answer: C — PEP. From the official ISED question bank, verified word for word.
Why
PEP stands for Peak Envelope Power, which is the average power over one radio frequency cycle at the highest point of the signal envelope. The full explanation — and one for every question — is in Pro.
