ELEC1010 Homework 1 [20] Deadline: 10pm on 08 Oct (Fri)

Please submit ONE soft copy (pdf only) of your assignment to Canvas (Assignments)
before the deadline. NO LATE Submission! (Zero mark!)

1. Find the period (if possible) of the following continuous signal: [6]
a) sin(12𝜋𝑡) + sin(54𝜋𝑡) + sin(36𝜋𝑡)
b) 2sin 𝑡 + 3sin 𝑡
c) 5 sin(4𝜋𝑡) + sin(9𝑡)

Solution:
a) Period = s

b) Period: 4.8𝑠

c) Not periodic, cannot find the period.


𝑓1 = 2, 𝑓2 = ; if periodic, = 𝑟𝑎𝑡𝑖𝑜 𝑜𝑓 𝑡𝑤𝑜 𝑖𝑛𝑡𝑒𝑔𝑒𝑟𝑠

2. Suppose 𝑠(𝑡) = sin(6𝜋𝑡) + 2 sin(12𝜋𝑡) + 4sin(24𝜋𝑡) + 6 sin(48𝜋𝑡) + sin(66𝜋𝑡) is


passed through the system as shown: [10]

a) Sketch 𝑆(𝑓).
b) Sketch 𝑌(𝑓) if 𝑓 = 15 𝐻𝑧.
c) What is the fundamental frequency of 𝑠(𝑡).
d) What are the harmonics of 𝑌(𝑓).
e) If the filter H(f) is replaced by a bandpass filter G(f) as shown below, sketch Z(𝑓).
