True/False Digital acoustic signals represents "snapshots" of time. - Answer True List the two types of acoustic signals. - Answer Digital and analog acoustic signals What are the advantages of digital signals? - Answer These signals are more immune to noise and distortion than analog signals. In analog signal processing, signals are modified regarding: A- Mathematical operations B- natural signals C-Temporal or spectral properties D- Intensity properties - Answer C- Temporal or spectral properties. The numerical representation of signals are expressed by which digits? - Answer 0 and 1 What is the digital information/ sequence of numbers that can be processed by a computer defined as? - Answer binary code The binary code indicates changes between which two states of a given variable? - Answer 0= off 1= on A byte can be best defined as: - Answer A sequence of 8 bits What is the smallest amount of information that can be processed by a binary computer? - Answer bit True/False The three basic steps used to convert analog signals into digital signals include- sampling, filtering, and quantization. - Answer False, sampling, quantization and digitization. The process of converting the quantized values into binary from:
A-Quantization B-Filtering C- Sampling D- Digitizing - Answer D- Digitizing Explain sampling rate. - Answer The number of snapshots taken per second of time. The rule of sampling is called the? - Answer Nyquist Shannon Theorem. Filters serve to pass signal within a certain ___________ for transmission. - Answer Bandwidth. When digital signal processing takes place, the signal is ___________ in order to control acoustic feedback and noise suppression. A- Lowpass filtered B Highpass filtered C- D/A converted D- Medium frequency filtered. - Answer A- Lowpass filtered Eliminating low frequencies while allowing high frequencies to pass is called? - Answer Highpass filtering Describe the process of A/D and D/A converters. - Answer The A/D converter converts the analog signal into digital signal. The D/A converter converts the digital signal into analog signal. Which converter results in signal transmission to the ear via the receiver? - Answer D/A converter. Give an example of a device that processes sound in a digital format. - Answer Digital hearing aids In order to meet Nyquist Shannon therm requirements, the sampling rate should be at least _____ as great as as the highest frequency in a sampling signal. - Answer Twice as great.
