Problem #1

The information in an analog waveform, whose maximum frequency fm=4000 Hz, is

to be transmitted using 32-level PAM system. The quantization distortion must not
exceed 1% of the peak to peak analog signal.

a. what is the minimum number of bits per sample.

b. What is the minimum required sampling rate, and what is the resulting bit rate
c. Calculate the bandwidth.
d. Calculate the bandwidth if Binary PAM is used
e. Find the ratio of the peak signal power to the peak quantization noise power in dB.

Problem #2

An audio signal is band limited to 4.5 kHz, this signal was sampled at 1.5 times the
Nyquest rate. The signal is quantized so that the ratio of the peak signal power to
the average quantization noise power is at least 50 db, if the signal is to be
transmitted over 32-aray PAM system find

a) The bandwidth of the audio signal ?

b) The sampling frequency ?
c) The minimum number of bits per sample or bits per level ?
d) The actual peak signal power to the average quantization noise power ratio in db ?
e) The bit rate and the symbol rate ?
f) If the quantization error has the following probability P(e)
density function, repeat part (c). 7/4q
