Question: A signal x ( t ) = 3 0 s i n c ( 6 0 t ) is applied to a nonlinear modulator which

A signal x(t)=30sinc(60t) is applied to a nonlinear modulator which is depicted in the following figure. Assume the carrier frequency, fc, is 1 kHz and the nonlinear device has the response governed by: vout=a1vin+a2(vin)3.
(a) Calculate and sketch the spectrum of x(t).
(b) Determine the output signal vout.
(c) Give the conditions on the required center frequency f0 and the bandwidth of the bandpass filter in relation to fc and the bandwidth of the signal x(t) such that this system will produce a standard DSB signal.
(d) Determine the output DSB signal s(t).
(e) Determine values of a1 and a2 such that the maximum value of the amplitude of the output signal s(t) is 10.
