The frequency component f 1 is an integer value of the sample frequency f (^) sample and the components f (^) 2 and f 3 are non integer values. A spectral analysis is undertaken on the waveform using the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT). Sketch and explain the expected outcome of the spectral analysis. [4]
Fig Q 1 Waveform to be sampled with frequency components which are non integer values of the sample frequency
If the number of samples N and the sampling frequency fsample remain constant how can the spectral definition of the frequencies f (^) 2 and f 3 be improved. [3]
A fibre optic cable is used to determine the volumetric flow of liquid through a pipe. The cable is attached to a pipe which has liquid flowing through. A low intensity laser light is transmitted down the fibre optic cable and the light is subjected to spectral scattering due to vibration of the fibre caused by the flow of liquid through the pipe. The algorithm to infer the volumetric flow from the spectral scattering requires an adaptive band pass filter which requires a center frequency to be determined. Question 1 continued,

Figure Q
A radio station’s control desk has a loudspeaker monitoring system that applies a 15kHz continuous tone to the speakers to ensure their operation. It is found that under certain settings the signal interferes with recordings. To overcome this problem a second order notch filter with a notch frequency of 15kHz, a notch filter rejection of 1000 Hz at -3dB and a sample frequency of 100 kHz is required.
Design a notch filter to meet these requirements and show the VLSI implementation of the filter. [8]
An anti aliasing filter is also required for the system. Using the Bi-Linear transform design a second order Butterworth anti-aliasing filter with a - 3dB cut off frequency of 50 kHz and the same sample frequency as the notch filter design. ( Note: the difference equation and VLSI structure are not required for this filter) [6]
If the sample frequency was to drift upwards by 10 % explain the effect on the notch filter design. [2]
