1. Determine the energy spectral density of a square pulse x(t ) = rect , where
T
t 1 T / 2 t T / 2
rect =
elsewhere
T 0
Also calculate the normalized energy Ex in the pulse

2. Use the sampling property of the unit impulse function to evaluate the following integrals

(a)

cos 6t d (t 3) dt

(b)

10d (t )(1 + t )

dt

(c)

d (t + 4)(t

(d)

exp(t

+ 6t + 1) dt

) d (t 2) dt

3. Given the spectrum

transmission?
Frequency response of a transmission
system is plotted in the adjacent figure.
Identify the frequency range where:
(a) Amplitude distortion occurs
(b) Phase distortion occurs
(c) Both distortion occurs
(d) No distortion occurs
