Signal Quiz1

This document contains a 5 question quiz on signal and information representation. The questions cover topics like: 1) Identifying the amplitude, frequency, and phasor of different sinusoidal signals from graphs of the time and frequency domains. 2) Converting a sinusoidal signal from time domain to canonical form to extract the frequency and phasor. 3) Calculating the sum of two signal phasors when the individual signals are defined in terms of cosine and sine waves.

t (sec) X(jω)
Answer: A

Note x(0) = 2 cos(φ) = 1. We have φ = ±π/3. We note, however, that the derivative of x(t) at
d
t = 0 is positive. Since dt x(0) = −Aω0 sin(φ), therefore, φ = −π/3.

4. What is the frequency f0 and phasor X of the following sinusoid:

x(t) = −4 sin(6πt + π/4).

A: f0 = 3 Hz, X = 4ejπ/4 . B: f0 = 6 Hz, X = 4e−jπ/4 .


C: f0 = 3 Hz, X = 4ej3π/4 . D: f0 = 6 Hz, X = 4e−j3π/4 .

Answer: C

We need to convert the sinusoid into the canonical form:

x(t) = −4 sin(6πt + π/4)


π
= −4 cos(6πt + π/4 − )
2
= 4 cos(6πt − π/4 + π)
3π
= 4 cos(6πt + 3π/4) ⇒ X = 4ej 4 .

5. Let X be the phasor of x(t) and Y the phasor of y(t) defined below.
√
x(t) = cos(2πt + π/6), y(t) = 3 sin(2πt + π/6)
√
A: X + Y = (1 + 3)∠(π/3). B: X + Y = 2∠(−π/6).
C: X + Y = 4∠(−π/3). D: X + Y = 2∠(π/6).
Answer: B

The phasors of the two signals are given by


√ √ !
3 1 √ −jπ/3 √ 1 3
X = ejπ/6 = +j , Y = 3e = 3 −j ,
2 2 2 2

where, for y(t), we convert the signal in the cosine form by subtracting π/2 from the phase angle.
Thus, √
X + Y = 3 − j = 2e−jπ/6 .
