• Sampling, Resampling
• Discrete-time processing of continuous-time signals
• Continuous-time processing of discrete-time signals
Notations:
• X(jΩ) represents the continuous-time Fourier transform (CTFT) of a signal x(t).
• X(ejω ) represents the discrete-time Fourier transform (DTFT) of a sequence x[n].
• δ[n], δ(t) denote discrete-time and continuous-time impulse functions, respectively.

(a) Determine a choice for T consistent with this information.

(b) Is your choice for T in Part (a) unique? If so, explain why. If not, specify
another choice of T consistent with the information given.
2. Consider a continuous-time signal xc (t) with Fourier transform Xc (jΩ) shown

in Fig 1.
(a) A continuous-time signal xr (t) is obtained through the process shown in

Fig.. First, xc (t) is multiplied by an impulse train of period T1 to produce
the waveform xs (t), i.e.,

Determine the range of the values of T1 for which xc (t) = xr (t).

(b) Consider the system in Figure 3. The system in this case is the same
as the one in part (a), except that the sampling period is now T2 . The
system Hs (jΩ) is some continuous-time ideal LTI filter. We want x0 (t) to
be equal to xc (t) for some choice of Hs (jΩ). Find all values of T2 for which
xo (t) = xc (t) is possible. For the largest T2 you determined that would
still allow recovery of xc (t), choose Hs (jΩ) so that xo (t) = xc (t). Sketch
Hs (jΩ).

filter and hd [n] the impulse response of a linear time-invariant discrete-time
filter.

hc (t) =

where a is a positive real constant, determine the continuous-time filter
frequency response and sketch its magnitude.
(b) If hd [n] = T hc (nT ) with hc (t) as in part (a), determine the discrete-time
filter frequency response and sketch its magnitude.
(c) For a given value of a, determine, as a function of T , the minimum mag-
nitude of the discrete-time filter frequency response.

and T = 10. Find y[n].
(b) Suppose you use the same x[n] as in Part (a), but halve T to be 5. Find
the resulting y[n].
(c) In general, how does the continuous-time LTI system hc (t) limit the range
of the sampling period T that can be used without changing y[n]?

Assume that sc (t) is bandlimited such that Sc (jΩ) = 0 for |Ω| ≥ π/T and that
xc (t) is sampled with a sampling period T to obtain the sequence
x[n] = xc (nT ).
(a) Determine the Fourier transform of xc (t) and the Fourier transform of x[n]
in terms of Sc (jΩ).
(b) We want to simulate the multipath system with a discrete-time system by
choosing H(ejω ) in Figure 6 so that the output r[n] = xc (nT ) when the
input is s[n] = sc (nT ). Determine H(ejω ) in terms of T and τd .
