Soft copy of the assignment is to be submitted online in Moodle through turnitin.
Each student has to do the assignment individually.
Explain with suitable diagrams wherever required.
The final assignment must have a Title Page, table of contents, references/ bibliography and page number.
Heading should be with Font Size 14, Bold, and Underline.
You can refer books in Library or use internet resource. But you should not cut and paste material from internet nor provide photocopied material from books. The assignment answers should be in your own words after understanding the matter from the above resources.
Attention to the moderator:
Each student will get 5 questions from Question bank covering all the learning outcomes.
Different set of students will get different parameter values.And some of the questions answer will be according to their id no: as it is taken as input data.
Rules & Regulations
If any coursework assessment is found to be copied from other candidates using unacceptable means, then it shall be cancelled and the total marks awarded will be zero. No chance of resubmission or appeal will be given*.
Your source of information should be mentioned in the reference page clearly. (For example: If it’s from book, you have to mention the full details of the book with title, author name, edition and publisher’s name. If it is from the internet you have to mention the correct URL). Otherwise the assignment will be considered as plagiarized*.
The students may be asked to appear for a viva voce to validate the assignment solutions submitted. The viva voce does not carry any marks.
Title Page must have Assignment Name, Module name, your name, ID, Section and the name of the faculty.
For late submission, 5% of the awarded marks will be deducted for each working day.
For plagiarism, please refer to student guide and clarification uploaded on Moodle.

2.a A signal is sampled with a sampling frequency of 20 MHz. A design engineer claim that the sampled signal is perfectly reconstructed by low pass filter in each of the following cases: Whether his claim is correct? Give justifications.
The band limiting low pass filter frequency response is zero for all frequencies above 7MHz.
The band limiting low pass filter frequency response is zero for all frequencies above 20MHz.
The band limiting low pass filter frequency response is zero for all frequencies above 10MHz.

2. b. A design engineer claim that the PCM system designed by him for a voice signal band limited to 3300 Hz provides peak signal power to average quantization noise power at the output 90 dB and has following specifications: Number of bits per sample = 16 bits, sampling rate 8000 samples/Sec., bit period = 6 micro sec, minimum channel bandwidth required is 167KHz, a peak signal power of 100 Watt and an average quantization noise power of 1 Watt.
Analyze the system and give justification whether all the specifications given by him are true.
