Solution

  1. Problem 2.12
    a) We can write x(t) as x(t) = 2Π( t 4) - 2Λ( t 2). Then
                    t           t
F [x(t)] = F[2Π (-)] - F[2Λ (-)] = 8sinc (4f ) - 4sinc2(2f )
                4           2

    b)

    x (t) = 2Π (t-) - Λ (t) =⇒ F [x(t)] = 8sinc(4f) - sinc2(f)
           4

    c)

               ∫ ∞                 ∫ 0                 ∫ 1
X (f)  =       x (t)e-j2πftdt =    (t + 1)e-j2πftdt +  (t - 1)e-j2πftdt
           (-∞            )     -1                  0
              j        1     -j2πft||0      j  - j2πft||0
       =     2πf-t + 4-π2f2 e      ||  + 2-πfe      ||
             (              )      - 1|              -|1
               -j--    --1---  - j2πft||1   --j- - j2πft||1
           +   2πf t + 4π2f2  e      |0 - 2πf e      |0

       =   -j-(1 - sin (πf ))
           πf

    d) We can write x(t) as x(t) = Λ(t + 1) - Λ(t - 1). Thus

                2    j2πf      2    - j2πf         2
X (f ) = sinc (f)e   -  sinc (f )e      = 2jsinc (f) sin(2πf )

    e) We can write x(t) as x(t) = Λ(t + 1) + Λ(t) + Λ(t - 1). Hence,

    X  (f ) = sinc2(f)(1 + ej2πf + e- j2πf) = sinc2(f)(1 + 2cos(2πf )

    f) We can write x(t) as

           [  (             )     (             )]
                     1                   1
x (t) =  Π   2f0(t - 4f-)  - Π   2f0(t - 4f-)   sin (2πf0t)
                      0                   0

    Then

               [        (    )                    (     )        ]
             1         f    -j2π-1f    1         f     j2π 1-f
X  (f ) =    2f--sinc   2f-- e    4f0  - 2f--sinc   2f-)  e   4f0
               0        0                0        0
           ⋆-j(δ(f + f ) - δ (f + f ))
            2      (  0    )    ( 0      )           (       )     (        )
            1        f + f0        f + f0      1       f - f0         f - f0
       =   ----sinc   ------- sin  π ------- -  ---sinc  ------- sin  π -------
           2f0        2f0            2f0      2f0        2f0           2f0

  2. Problem 3.2
    u(t) = m(t)c(t) = A(sinc(t) + sinc2(t)) cos(2 πfct)

    Taking the Fourier transform of both sides, we obtain

    U(f ) =   A- [Π (f) + Λ(f)] ⋆ (δ(f - fc) + δ(f + fc))
           2
          A-
      =    2 [Π (f - fc) + Λ (f - fc) + Π (f + fc) + Λ(f + fc)]
    Π(f -fc)⁄=0 for |f -fc| < 1 2, whereas Λ(f -fc)⁄=0 for |f -fc| < 1. Hence, the bandwidth of the bandpass filter is 2.

  3. Problem 3.3
    The following figure shows the modulated signals for A = 1 and f0 = 10. As it is observed both signals have the same envelope but there is a phase reversal at t = 1 for the second signal Am2(t) cos(2πf0t) (right plot). This discontinuity is shown clearly in the next figure where we plotted Am2(t) cos(2πf0t) with f0 = 3.

y(t) =   x(t) + -x2(t)
                2              (                                      )
     =   m (t) + cos(2πf t) + 1 m2 (t) + cos2(2πf t) + 2m (t) cos(2πf t)

     =   m (t) + cos(2πfct) + 2m (t) + 4-+ 4-cos(2π2fct) + m (t) cos(2 πfct)
    Taking the Fourier transform of the previous, we obtain
    Y(f ) =   M (f ) + 1M (f ) ⋆ M (f) + 1-(M (f - f ) + M (f + f ))
