Multiple choice

Let m (t) = cos [ (4$\pi$ $\times$ 103) t] be the message signal and c(t) = 5 cos[(2$\pi$ $\times$ 106)t] be the carrier. c(t) and m(t) are used to generate an AM signal. The modulation index of the generated AM signal is 0.5. Then the quantity $\dfrac{Total sideband power}{Carrier power}$ is

  1. $\dfrac{1}{2}$
  2. $\dfrac{1}{4}$
  3. $\dfrac{1}{3}$
  4. $\dfrac{1}{8}$
