What determines the PEP-to-average power ratio of an unprocessed single-sideband phone signal?
Pick an answer to check it.
Answer: B. Speech characteristics
The PEP-to-average ratio depends on how a person talks, such as pauses, emphasis, and voice character. Speech processing raises the average and lowers this ratio.
