Problem Sheet 1 Analog to Digital Conversion

Q no 1:

Consider the following analog sinusoidal signal: xa (t) = 3 sin(100πt)

a) Sketch the signal xa (t) for 0 ≤ t ≤ 30 ms


b) The signal xa (t) is sampled with a sampling rate Fs = 300 samples/s. Determine the
frequency of the discrete-time signal x(n) = xa (nT), T = 1/Fs , and show that it is
periodic.
c) Compute the sample values in one period of x(n). Sketch x(n) on the same diagram
with xa (t). What is the period of the discrete-time signal in milliseconds?
d) Can you find a sampling rate Fs such that the signal x(n) reaches its peak value of 3?
What is the minimum Fs suitable for this task?
Q no 2:

An analog signal contains frequencies up to 10 kHz.


a) What range of sampling frequencies allows exact reconstruction of this signal from its
samples?
b) Suppose that we sample this signal with a sampling frequency Fs = 8 kHz.
c) Examine what happens to the frequency F1 = 5 kHz.
d) Repeat part (b) for a frequency F2 = 9 kHz

Q no3:
An analog signal xa (t) = sin(480πt) + 3 sin(720πt) is sampled 600 times per second.
a) Determine the Nyquist sampling rate for xa (t).
b) Determine the folding frequency.
c) What are the frequencies, in radians, in the resulting discrete time signal x(n)?
d) If x(n) is passed through an ideal D/A converter, what is the reconstructed signal
ya (t)?

Q no 4:

A digital communication link carries binary-coded words representing samples of an input


signal
xa (t) = 3 cos 600πt + 2 cos 1800πt
The link is operated at 10,000 bits/s and each input sample is quantized into 1024 different
voltage levels.
a) What are the sampling frequency and the folding frequency?
b) What is the Nyquist rate for the signal xa (t)?
c) What are the frequencies in the resulting discrete-time signal x(n)?
d) What is the resolution ∆?
Q no 5:

Consider the simple signal processing system shown i n Fig. P11. The sampling periods of the
A/D and D/A converters are T = 5 ms and 𝑇 / = 1 ms, respectively. Determine the output
ya (t) of the system, if the input is

xa (t) = 3 cos 100πt + 2 sin 250πt (t in seconds)


The postfilter removes any frequency component above Fs /2.
Q no 6:

The discrete-time signal x(n) = 6.35 cos(π/10)n is quantized with a resolution (a) ∆ =
0.1 or (b) ∆ = 0.02. How many bits are required in the A/D converter in each case?

Q no 7:
𝐧𝛑
Consider the discrete-time sequence: 𝐱(𝐧) = 𝐜𝐨𝐬( 𝟖 )

Find two different continuous-time signals that would produce this sequence when sampled at a
frequency of Fs = 10 kHz.

a) What is aliasing and how it can be avoided?


b) What is folding frequency
c) What is fundamental frequency and how can we find aliases form fundamental
frequency?
d) Explain why quantization is a non-invertible or irreversible process that leads to signal
distortion?
e) Explain the term signal to quantization noise ratio (SQNR) and its significance.
f) Give two practical applications where aliasing is useful.
g) Explain Bandpass form of sampling theorem.
