c) Sketch the recovered analog signal spectrum if an ideal lowpass filter with a cutoff
frequency of 4 𝑘𝐻𝑧 is used to filter the sampled signal (𝑦[𝑛] = 𝑥[𝑛]) to recover the
original signal.
Answer:
- Spectrum of the low-pass filtered (LPF) signal.

d) Is the output of the reconstruction filter an exact or scaled version of the signal 𝑥(𝑡)?
Give reasons based on Shannon sampling theory condition.
Answer:
- In this case, the sampling frequency, 𝑓𝑠 = 8 k𝐻𝑧 while 𝑓𝑚𝑎𝑥 = 8 k𝐻𝑧.
- Hence, Shannon sampling theory condition is not satisfied: 𝑓𝑠 ≤ 2𝑓max or 8 ≤ 2 × 5 = 10
- Therefore, an aliasing noise has appeared in the reconstructed signal spectrum at the frequency
of ±100𝐻𝑧.

3. Calculate the quantization noise power of a uniform scalar quantizer for a sine signal with
amplitude 1.5 𝑉 and 3 levels of quantization.
Answer:
- The amplitude of the sine signal is in the range of (−1.5 𝑡𝑜 1.5)𝑉.
- The quantization levels, 𝐿 = 3.
