Sensitivity - Definition
Q. Sensitivity is defined as- Published on 14 Oct 15a. Ability of receiver to amplify weak signals
b. Ability to reject unwanted signals
c. Ability to convert incoming signal into Image Frequency
d. Ability to reject noise
ANSWER: Ability of receiver to amplify weak signals
Sensitivity of a receiver is defined as the ability of the receiver to amplify weak signals received by the receiver. It is the voltage that must be applied at the input terminals of the receiver to achieve a minimum standard output at the output of the receiver. The sensitivity is expressed in micro volts or Decibels. The typical value of sensitivity is 150μV for small broadcast band receiver.
