Question

In near-far effect, a nearby transmitter captures the __________

(a) Receiver of the subscriber

(b) Transmitter of the subscriber

(c) Nearby MSC

(d) Neighbouring base station

This question was posed to me in a national level competition.

My query is from Interference and System Capacity topic in division The Cellular Concept – System Design Fundamentals of Wireless/Mobile

Answer 1

The correct choice is (a) Receiver of the subscriber

The best explanation: Near-far effect occurs if an adjacent channel user is transmitting in very close range to a subscriber’s receiver while the receiver attempts to receive a base station on the desired channel. In this effect, a nearby transmitter captures the receiver of the subscriber.
