Engineering (Honours) Exam: Mathematics & Digital Signal Processing, Exams of Digital Signal Processing

A past exam paper from the cork institute of technology for the bachelor of engineering (honours) in electronic engineering program. The exam focuses on mathematics and digital signal processing, specifically sampling and quantization, digital signal processing, and filter design. Students are required to answer one question from each section, with all questions carrying equal marks. The exam lasts for 1.5 hours and is overseen by dr. J. Connell, prof. G. Hurley, and dr. S. Foley.

Answer ONE question from EACH section. All questions carry equal marks.

Examiners: Dr. J. Connell Prof. G. Hurley Dr. S. Foley

Section A

Q1. ( a) Outline how the processes of sampling and quantisation can result in the loss of information during analogue-digital conversion. (8 marks) ( b) Assuming a periodic analogue signal with bandwidth f (^) a is sampled at a frequency fs where f (^) s > 2 fa , sketch possible amplitude spectra for both x ( t )and x ( n ). (6 marks)

( c) An analogue signal x ( t )= 2 − 4 sin( 40 π t −π 4 )+ 3 sin( 50 π t −^ π 3 )is sampled at

f (^) s = 100 Hz. What is ω for each of the components in x? What does this value mean? (4 marks) What is N for the sequence of samples produced. Evaluate x ( 1 ). (3 marks) Write down another expression for x ( t )in the frequency range 100 < f < 150 Hz which would produce an identical sequence of samples if similarly sampled at f (^) s = 100 Hz. (4 marks)

Q2. (a) The 4-point spectrum of a periodic digital signal is given by:

X ( k )=[− 3 4 − j 2 5 4 + j 2 ] Using these values, specify the actual spectral components in x ( n ), their digital frequency, amplitude and phase. (9 marks) Evaluate one period of x ( n )using the Radix-2 IFFT flow diagram. (7 marks) Evaluate the time domain and frequency domain energies and show how they are related. (4 marks)

(b) If the samples in a) are sent to a DAC at a rate of 80 samples/sec, write down an expression for the signal x ( t )thus produced. (5 marks)

Section B

Q3. (a) What is meant by the term “linear phase” in relation to filters? What is the prerequisite for a filter to have a linear phase characteristic? (4 marks) (b) Design a seventh order, nonrecursive, lowpass filter with a passband gain of H ( ej ω)= 1 using a Hamming window. The filter cutoff frequency is 1250Hz. Assume the input signal is being sampled at 10kHz. (15 marks) (c) Describe the characteristics of the filter response in b) both in amplitude and phase terms. Calculate the phase response of the filter at 750Hz. (6 marks)
