Figure 2: Synchronous TDM system
a) Figure 2 above illustrates the use of synchronous TDM system to multiplex 7
(digital and analog) sources. The analog signals are samples at their Nyquist rate
and binary coded using 512 levels.
i) What is the commutator frequency in rotation per second of fs and fy
respectively?
[2 marks}
ii) Suggest one possible value for ‘X’ from source 7. Justify your answer.
[2 marks]
iii) Find the bandwidth for each of the analog source in the system above.
[3 marks]
iv) The TDM system above is now altered and uses only two commutator
(commutator f; and f; are combined together) while producing the same
output rate. Draw the new synchronous TDM system and find the
frequency of the combined commutator in rotation per second,

‘A FDM group multiplexer takes 12 voice channels (4 kHz per channel) and puts
them on subcarriers starting at 60 KHz using SSBSC utilizing upper sideband
(USB). The ‘groups are then multiplexer together to produce a supergroup
multiplexer with a subcarriers starting at 420 kHz utilizing USB as well.
(Why does the standard voice channel is set at 4 kHz?
{1 mark}
(ii) Determine thé range of the group spectrum.
[1 mark]
(iii) Draw the frequency spectrum of the supergroup multiplexer showing all
the pertinent frequency values
[4 marks)
(iv) Am extra guard band of 1 kHz is now being added between each channel.
How many voice channels can be assigned within the supergroup
frequency band? (Assume the output bandwidth of group/supergroups
remain the same)
[2 marks}
(v) If the original FDM system employed DSBSC instead of SSBSC, what
happened to the output of the groups and supergroups multiplexer?
