Answer question no 1,2,3,4,5 and any two from the rest.

1. What do you mean by sampling? Prove the sampling
theorem. What is aliasing effect? How can it be minimized?
1+4+2+1


2.

What are the types of sampling? Draw any one of them.


1+1
3. Define PCM? Write two advantages & disadvantages of
PCM.

2+3

4. Explain companding process? In case of -law and A-law
compression, what are the corresponding values of and A
for which the case corresponds to uniform quantization?


3+2
5. What are the basic elements of a PCM system? Describe the
functions of each of them in brief.

6. what is the nyquist criterion for distortion-less binary
transmission? Write about the ideal nyquist solution for
zero ISI. What are the practical difficulties with this
solution? How does a raised cosine roll-off filter help to
eliminate ISI?

7. 1) Establish that the quantization noise decreases when the
number of quantization level increases.

2) Given a sine wave frequency f
m
