1. When pulse code modulation is applied to non binary symbols we obtain waveform called as
a) PCM
b) PAM
c) M-ary
d) line codes
Explanation: When pulse code modulation is applied to binary symbols we get PCM waveforms and when it is applied to non binary symbols we obtain M-ary waveforms.

a) Non return to zero
b) Phase encoded
c) Multilevel binary
d) All of the mentioned
Explanation: Some of the examples or classification of pulse code modulated signals are non return to zero, return to zero, phase encoded, multilevel binary etc
3. Which type is used and preferred in digital logic circuits?
a) NRZ-L
b) NRZ-M
c) NRZ-S
d) None of the mentioned
Explanation: NRZ-L is extensively used in digital logic circuits. In this method, logic 1 is represented by one voltage level and logic 0 is represented by another voltage level
4. Which method is called as differential encoding?
a) NRZ-L
b) NRZ-M
c) NRZ-S
d) None of the mentioned
Explanation: In NRZ-M, logic 1 is represented by a change in voltage level and logic 0 is represented by no change in level. This is called as differential encoding
5. Which method is preferred in magnetic tape recording?
a) NRZ-L
b) NRZ-M
c) NRZ-S
d) None of the mentioned
Explanation: NRZ-M is also called as differential encoding and it is most preferred in magentic tape recording

a) NRZ-L
b) NRZ-M
c) NRZ-L & NRZ-M
d) None of the mentioned
Explanation: NRZ-S is a complement of NRZ-M. Logic 0 is represented by a change in voltage level and logic 1 is represented as no change in voltage level.
