A periodic signal is

May be represented by g(t) = g(t + T0) Value may be determined at any point Repeats itself at regular intervals All of the above

Sine wave is a

Periodic signal Aperiodic signal Deterministic signal Both a and c

The spectrum of the sampled signal may be obtained without overlapping only if

fs ≥ 2fm fs < 2fm fs > fm fs < fm

The desired signal of maximum frequency wm centered at frequency w=0 may be recovered if

The sampled signal is passed through low pass filter Filter has the cut off frequency wm Both a and b None of the above

A distorted signal of frequency fm is recovered from a sampled signal if the sampling frequency fs is

fs > 2fm fs < 2fm fs = 2fm fs ≥ 2fm

For a Unit ramp function area of pulse curve is unity

Discontinuous at time t=0 Starts at time t=0 and linearly increases with t Both a and b None of the above

Calculate the Nyquist rate for sampling when a continuous time signal is given by x(t) = 5 cos 100πt +10 cos 200πt – 15 cos 300πt

300Hz 600Hz 150Hz 200Hz

The techniques used for sampling are

Instantaneous sampling Natural sampling Flat top sampling All of the above

In pulse amplitude modulation,

In Pulse Position Modulation, the drawbacks are

Synchronization is required between transmitter and receiver Large bandwidth is required as compared to PAM None of the above Both a and b

In pulse width modulation,

Synchronization is not required between transmitter and receiver Amplitude of the carrier pulse is varied Instantaneous power at the transmitter is constant None of the above

In different types of Pulse Width Modulation,
