The maximum frequency present in the oboe signal is 5.8 kHz. To accurately reconstruct the signal from samples, the sampling rate must exceed twice the maximum frequency, which is 11.6 kHz. A second practice problem involves sampling an analog waveform at 500 Hz with a 2-bit quantizer. The samples are quantized into 4 intervals and assigned binary words. The stream of binary bits is 1011110010 and the bit rate is 1000 bps.

Solutions to Practice Problems

Practice Problem 21.1


Consider the signal from the oboe depicted below in time and frequency domain representations.
What is the maximum frequency present in the oboe signal?
1. Based upon this, what sampling rate must be exceeded in order to accurately reconstruct the signal from its samples?

Frequency (Hz)

From the frequency plot, it looks like the highest frequency spike appears at 5.8 kHz. This means the sample rate should
be at least 2 (5.8 kHz)=11.6 kHz.
Practice Problem 21.2

Consider the following analog waveform. This waveform is sampled at a 500 Hz rate and quantized with a 2-bit quantizer
(i.e., A/D converter) The input range is -1.0 to +1.0 V.
a. Circle the sample points (first sample is at time t = 0 sec).
b. Indicate the quantization intervals and corresponding digital words.
c. Indicate the digital word assigned to each sample point.
d. What is the stream of binary bits generated after the A/D conversion is complete?.
e. What is the resulting bit rate from this A/D?

a. Since fs = 500 Hz, Ts = 1/fs = 1/500 Hz = 2 msec. A sample is taken every 2 msec.
b. Using a 2-bit quantizer, there are 22 = 4 quantization intervals. The resolution is
vmax − vmin 1 − (−1)
=q = = 0.5 V
2N 22
The intervals and digital words are as shown.

c. Digital words for each sample are as shown.


d. Binary bits: 10 11 11 10 00 01
e. Bit rate:
