Question
An analog signal having a single frequency as 4 kHz is sampled with a 10 kHz signal. Describe its
frequency spectrum. What will be the output if the sampled signals are passed through a low-pass…
The frequency spectrum of a sampled signal can be analyzed using the concept of sampling and
aliasing. When an analog signal is sampled, its frequency spectrum is replicated at intervals of the
sampling frequency.
Original Signal Frequency: The original analog signal has a frequency of 4 kHz.
According to the sampling theorem, the frequency spectrum of the sampled signal will have replicas
(or images) of the original signal's spectrum centered at multiples of the sampling frequency.
Therefore, the frequency components of the sampled signal will appear at:
10 kHz (sampling frequency) ± 4 kHz: This results in components at 6 kHz and 14 kHz.
20 kHz (2 times the sampling frequency) ± 4 kHz: This results in components at 16 kHz and 24
kHz.
And so on...
The sampled signal is passed through a low-pass filter with a cut-off frequency of 5 kHz. The
purpose of this filter is to remove high-frequency components and retain only the desired signal.
Since the original signal frequency is 4 kHz, which is below the cut-off frequency, the low-pass filter
will allow this component to pass through. However, the replicas at 6 kHz, 14 kHz, and other higher
frequencies will be attenuated by the filter.
Conclusion
Output Signal: The output of the low-pass filter will be the original 4 kHz signal, as it is the only
component within the passband of the filter.
Filtered Components: All frequency components above 5 kHz, including the replicas at 6 kHz, 14
kHz, etc., will be removed by the filter.
This process effectively reconstructs the original analog signal from its sampled version, assuming
the sampling frequency was sufficient to avoid aliasing within the filter's passband.
