From the viewpoint of an observer on a mobile unit, the signal received from a continuous wave transmission as the mobile moves with constant velocity may be represented as a carrier whose phase and amplitude are randomly varying. Many of the statistical characteristics of this random process can be determined from its power spectrum. In this respect, capitalizing on certain assumptions, the power spectra of the individual filed components assume the form, for |f | < fm , 1 SE (f ) = p 2 − f2 fm f2 SH (f ) = p 2 − f2 fm where f denotes the frequency. Determine the inverse Fourier transforms of the above spectra.1 [10 marks] 2. The moving average of a process x(t) is denoted by 1 y(t) = 2T Z t+T x(λ)dλ. t−T (a) Show that y(t) is the output of a linear time invariant ( LTI) system with input x(t). [5 marks] (b) Determine the impulse response of the above LTI system. 1 The Bessel function of the first kind and order n ∈ Z can be expressed as Z j −n π jz cos θ Jn (z) = e cos nθdθ π 0 √ where j = −1. 1 [5 marks] (c) Find the frequency response H(f ) of the system and identify the nature of filtration that this system performs. [5 marks] (d) Alternatively, take the derivative of y(t) with respect to t and thereby determine the frequency response of the above LTI system. [5 marks] 3. A certain second-order system assumes the following frequency response fn2 H(f ) = (jf )2 + 2ξfn jf + fn2 where ξ > 0 and fn > 0. Equivalently, we can rewrite it as H(ω) = ωn2 (jω)2 + 2ξωn jω + ωn2 where we have used the relations ω = 2πf and ωn = 2πfn . (a) Determine the values of α1 and α2 such that H(ω) = [5 marks] ωn2 . (jω − α1 ) (jω − α2 ) (b) Determine the impulse response for ξ > 1. [5 marks] (c) Determine the impulse response corresponding to the case ξ = 1. [5 marks] (d) Determine the impulse response for 0 < ξ < 1. [5 marks] (e) Plot the impulse responses corresponding to ξ = 0.1, 0.2, 0.4, 0.7, 1, 1.5 on the same graph assuming ωn = 1. [5 marks] (f) Generate the exact Bode plots (i.e., 20 log10 |H(ω)| vs log10 ω plot) corresponding to the above values of ξ and ωn . [5 marks] (g) Draw the asymptotic Bode plot corresponding to the above system. [5 marks] 4. (a) Use the first principles to determine the Fourier transform of the following radio frequency (RF) pulse [5 marks] x(t) = cos πt, t ∈ (−1/2, 1/2). (b) Choose a suitable function g(t) such that x(t) = g(t) cos πt and hence determine the Fourier transform of x(t). [5 marks] (c) Obtain the second derivative of x(t) with respect to t and hence determine its Fourier transform. [5 marks] 2 (d) A certain digital communication transmitter uses the above RF pulse to transmit binary antipodal signals as follows N X 1 s(t) = ak x t − − k 2 k=0 where ak = {−1, +1}. Plot all possible energy spectral densities (i.e., |S(f )|2 ) for N = 4. [5 marks] 5. A certain analog filter is realized via the two electronic circuits shown in Fig. 1 and Fig. 2 in which Vs , Vo denote the input and output voltages, respectively.
