Instructions:
[i] Answer all questions. All parts of a question must be answered together, else that question will not be
evaluated.
[ii] u(t) stands for unit step function.
[iii] ROC stands for region of convergence.
[iv] ? denotes the convolution operator.

[Q1] (a) Figure A shows part of a signal x(t) and Figure B shows its odd part xo (t), for t ≥ 0 only, that means for t < 0,
x(t) and xo (t) are not given. Draw the even part of the signal x(t) for both t ≥ 0 and t < 0. [4M]

(b) In Figure C, f (t) is given. Then plot the signal f (4 − 2t). [4M]

[Q2] (a) Find the period of the discrete time signal x(n) = cos(0.5πn) + sin(0.125πn) + 3cos(0.25πn + π3 ). [4M]

(b) Consider the signals x(t) = sin(3πt + π4 ) + cos(4πt + π5 ) and y(t) = cos(2πt + π3 ). Then, find the average power of
the signal x(t) + y(t). [3M]

[Q3] An analog signal xa (t) with bandwidth 30 rad/sec sampled at ωs = 50 rad/sec, where ωs = Ts and Ts is the
sampling period, results in the following discrete time sequence:

(a) Obtain the expression for the Fourier transform of the analog signal xa (t) and plot the spectrum.
(b) Using (a), plot the sampled signal’s spectrum.
(c) Obtain the spectrum of the reconstructed signal and find xr (t) by applying Inverse Fourier Transform only.
ω
[You may use: Let F (ω) = rect( 2A ) be defined as F (ω) = 1 for |ω| < A and F (ω) = 1 otherwise. Then inverse Fourier

necessary steps clearly. [7M]

[Q5] Find the Fourier Transform for the signal (x(t)) which is shown in Figure D. Show all the necessary steps. [8M]

[Q6] Find the exponential Fourier series for the signal φ(t) = e−t with a time period of T = 1 (as shown in Figure E).

respectively. [6M]

[Q8] (a) For a LTI system, the output signal (y(n) = x(n) ? h(n)) is evaluated using the convolution between the input
signal (x(n)) and impulse response (h(n)). The input and the output signals for a LTI system are given as x(n) = [1, −1]
