Section A (Answer Questions 9 x 2 = 18 Marks)
Question (s)
What is meant by Aliasing?
Give the equations for A-law and u-law companding
Consider an analog information signal
S(t) = 5 cos (6000t) + 5 cos (8000 t) + 10 cos (10000 t)
Find the maximum value of sampling frequency considering,
1. Low Pass Signals
2. Band Pass Signals
An Audio Signal is required to be digitally transmitted with a sampling rate of
50kHz and 16 bits per sample using Linear PCM systems.
Calculate the minimum transmission data rate needed in the communication
channel in Gbps.
Differentiate Uniform and Non Uniform Quantization
Six Analog information signals, each band limited to 6kHz are required to be
time division multiplexed and transmitted by a TDM system.
Calculate
1. Nyquist Rate
2. Sampling Rate
3. Minimum Bandwidth for transmission of the PAM/TDM Channel
Define Aperture effect and show how to correct it
What are the two limitation of delta modulation?
Define slope overload distortion

Question (s)
State Nyquist Sampling Theorem and Demonstrate its validity for an analog
signal having Fourier Transform X(t) which is zero outside (-fm < f+fm) [16]
(OR)
(i) If a sinusoidal signal is transmitted using PCM, show how number of
representation levels required are fixed. State concepts used in them. [8]
(ii) With a neat diagram, Explain principles of TDMA
[8]
Explain the process of quantization, encoding and decoding of DPCM and show
how it is better than PCM
[16]
(OR)
Explain DM transceiver in detail with neat sketch
