What is the process of converting a continuous-time signal into a discrete-time signal called?

  1. Sampling

  2. Quantization

  3. Encoding

  4. Decoding

Show answer
Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Sampling is the process of converting a continuous-time signal into a discrete-time signal by taking samples of the signal at regular intervals.

What is the Nyquist rate?

  1. Twice the highest frequency component of the signal

  2. Half the highest frequency component of the signal

  3. Four times the highest frequency component of the signal

  4. One-fourth the highest frequency component of the signal

Show answer
Correct Option: A
Explanation:

The Nyquist rate is the minimum sampling rate required to avoid aliasing, which is the distortion of a signal caused by sampling it at a rate that is too low.

What is the process of removing unwanted noise from a signal called?

  1. Filtering

  2. Amplification

  3. Attenuation

  4. Equalization

Show answer
Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Filtering is the process of removing unwanted noise from a signal by passing the signal through a filter, which is a device that selectively passes or blocks certain frequencies.

What is the Fourier transform?

  1. A mathematical operation that converts a signal from the time domain to the frequency domain

  2. A mathematical operation that converts a signal from the frequency domain to the time domain

Explanation:

The inverse Z-transform is a mathematical operation that converts a signal from the frequency domain to the time domain, which allows us to reconstruct the original signal from its frequency components.

What is the difference between analog and digital signals?

  1. Analog signals are continuous in time and amplitude, while digital signals are discrete in time and amplitude

  2. Analog signals are discrete in time and amplitude, while digital signals are continuous in time and amplitude

  3. Analog signals are continuous in time and discrete in amplitude, while digital signals are discrete in time and continuous in amplitude

  4. Analog signals are discrete in time and continuous in amplitude, while digital signals are continuous in time and discrete in amplitude

Show answer
Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Analog signals are continuous in time and amplitude, meaning that they can take on any value within a certain range at any given time. Digital signals are discrete in time and amplitude, meaning that they can only take on certain values at certain times.

What is the difference between linear and nonlinear systems?

  1. Linear systems are time-invariant, while nonlinear systems are time-varying

  2. Linear systems are time-varying, while nonlinear systems are time-invariant

  3. Linear systems are causal, while nonlinear systems are non-causal

  4. Linear systems are non-causal, while nonlinear systems are causal

Show answer
Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Linear systems are time-invariant, meaning that their output does not depend on the time at which the input is applied. Nonlinear systems are time-varying, meaning that their output depends on the time at which the input is applied.

What is the difference between causal and non-causal systems?

  1. Causal systems are time-invariant, while non-causal systems are time-varying

  2. Causal systems are time-varying, while non-causal systems are time-invariant

  3. Causal systems are memoryless, while non-causal systems are not memoryless

  4. Causal systems are not memoryless, while non-causal systems are memoryless

Show answer
Correct Option: C
Explanation:

Causal systems are memoryless, meaning that their output at any given time depends only on the input at that time and not on any previous inputs. Non-causal systems are not memoryless, meaning that their output at any given time depends on both the current input and on previous inputs.

What is the difference between stable and unstable systems?

  1. Stable systems have a bounded output for a bounded input, while unstable systems have an unbounded output for a bounded input

  2. Stable systems have an unbounded output for a bounded input, while unstable systems have a bounded output for a bounded input

  3. Stable systems are causal, while unstable systems are non-causal

  4. Stable systems are non-causal, while unstable systems are causal

Show answer
Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Stable systems have a bounded output for a bounded input, meaning that the output of the system will not grow without bound even if the input is bounded. Unstable systems have an unbounded output for a bounded input, meaning that the output of the system will grow without bound even if the input is bounded.

What is the difference between deterministic and stochastic systems?

  1. Deterministic systems are time-invariant, while stochastic systems are time-varying

  2. Deterministic systems are time-varying, while stochastic systems are time-invariant

  3. Deterministic systems are causal, while stochastic systems are non-causal

  4. Deterministic systems are non-causal, while stochastic systems are causal

Show answer
Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Deterministic systems are time-invariant, meaning that their output is completely determined by their input and their initial conditions. Stochastic systems are time-varying, meaning that their output is not completely determined by their input and their initial conditions, but also by random factors.
