What is the use of Random Signals?

Random signals are used to test dynamic response statistically for very small amplitudes and
time-duration

What do you mean by aliasing in digital signal processing? How it can be

avoided?

Aliasing refers to an effect due to which different signals become indistinguishable. It

also refers to distortion in the reconstructed signal when it is reconstructed from the
original continuous signal.

What are the differences between a microprocessor and a DSP processor?

DSP processors are featured to support high performance and repetitive and intensive tasks
whereas microprocessors are not application specific and they are designed to process
control-oriented tasks.

What is the convolution?

Convolution is the technique of adding two signals in time domain. We can also do this
quite easily by changing the domain of signals from time domain to frequency domain
using Fast Fourier Transform (FFT).

What is FFT?

FFT is a fast way to calculate Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT). It is much more
efficient then DFT and require less number of coding lines. Due to FFT several kind of
techniques are feasible

What is the advantage of a Direct form II FIR over fom I?

Direct Form II FIR filters requires half the number of delay units as much as used by
Form I.

What is interpolation and decimation?

Interpolation is the process of increasing the sample rate in dsp whereas decimation is
the opposite of this that is, it is the process of decreasing the sample rate in dsp.

Difference between DFT and DTFT.

DFT DTFT
1-Limited number of samples of periodic 1-unlimited number of samples.
signal
2- input is always periodic 2-input may not always be periodic
3- physically realizable 3- mathematically precise
4- frequency becomes discrete 4- frequency is continuous
