What part of a superheterodyne receiver determines the image rejection ratio of the receiver?
- AAGC loop
- BIF filter
- CRF amplifier pre-selector
- DProduct detector
Correct answer: C — RF amplifier pre-selector. From the official ISED question bank, verified word for word.
Why
The RF amplifier pre-selector is the right answer because it acts as a tuned filter at the very front of the receiver, blocking unwanted signals that are spaced far away from your desired frequency before they can cause trouble. The full explanation — and one for every question — is in Pro.
