‘a. For a communication system to work properly the SNR requirement at the receiver is 6 dB. Due to some disturbance
in the transmission channel, the received SNR is 2 dB. In order to improve the SNR, the received signal is amplified.
Comment if the amplification will solve the problem at hand.
b. The frequency spectrum of human voice goes up to 5 kHz but for hardware implementation purposes, bandwidth of
4 kHz is assumed. Briefly elaborate the effect of removing the high frequency components from human voice.
