Tutorial 6 Questions - Week 7

Question 1: Question 4.4 from the textbook


The continuous-time signal:

xc (t) = sin(20πt) + cos(40πt)

is sampled with a sampling period T to obtain the discrete-time signal:


πn
2πn
x[n] = sin + cos .

(a) Determine a choice for T consistent with this information.

(b) Is your choice for T in part (a) unique? If so, explain why. If not, specify another choice of T
consistent with the information given.

Question 2: Question 4.5 from the textbook


Consider the system in Fig. 1, with the discrete-time system as an ideal low-pass filter with cutoff
frequency π8 radians/s.

(a) If xc (t) is bandlimited to 5 kHz, what is the maximum value of T that will avoid aliasing in the C/D
converter?
1
(b) If T = 10 kHz, what will the cutoff frequency of the effective continuous-time filter be?
1
(c) Repeat part (b) for T = 20 kHz.

Question 3: Question 4.12 from the textbook


In the system of Fig. 1, assume that;
jω
H(ejω ) = , − π ≤ ω < π,
T
1
and T = 10 sec.

(a) For each of the following inputs xc (t), find the corresponding output yc (t).

1
i xc (t) = cos(6πt).
ii xc (t) = cos(14πt).
(b) Are the outputs yc (t) those you would expect from a differentiator? (To better understand this
problem, first study Example 4.4 of the textbook).

Question 4: Question 4.14 from the textbook


Which of the following signals can be downsampled by a factor of 2 using the system in Fig. 2 without
any loss of information?

(a) x[n] = δ[n − n0 ], for n0 some unknown integer.


(b) x[n] = cos πn

(c) x[n] = cos πn + cos 3πn

(d) x[n] = (πn/3)

(e) x[n] = (−1)n (πn/3)

Question 5: Adapted from Question 4.15 from the textbook


Consider the system shown in Fig. 3. For each of the following input signals x[n], carefully draw the
DTFTs X(ejω ) and Xr (ejω ) and use them to indicate whether the output xr [n] = x[n].

(a) x[n] = cos πn

(b) x[n] = cos πn

Question 6: Adapted from Question 4.17 from the textbook
Each of the following parts lists an input signal x[n] and the upsampling and downsampling rate L and
M for the system in Fig. 4. Draw all the relevant intermediate DTFTs and determine the corresponding
output x̃d [n].

(a) x[n] = sin 2πn



3 /(πn), L = 4, M = 3.

(b) x[n] = sin 3πn
