  • Question
  • A given signal's second harmonic is twice the given signal's __________ frequency...?


  • Options
  • A. Fourier
  • B. Foundation
  • C. Fundamental
  • D. Field

  • Correct Answer
  • Fundamental 

    Explanation
    A given signal's second harmonic is twice the given signal's fundamental frequency. Harmonics are generated when there are non-linearities in an amplifier (there are always non-linearities). The worse the non-linearities, the more harmonics. A signal at 27.5 MHz (approximate frequency for US citizen's band) would have a second harmonic at 55.0 MHz (on US channel 2!). Can you see why there might be problems? A CB operator might do well to place a low-pass filter on his radio.
