Solution

With a guard band of 2000

The reconstruction filter should not pick-up frequencies of the images of the spectrum X(f). The nearest image spectrum is centered at fs and occupies the frequency band [fs - W,fs + W]. Thus the highest frequency of the reconstruction filter (= 10000) should satisfy

For the value fs = 16000, K should be such that

2) The spectrum of x(t) occupies the frequency band [-W,W]. Suppose that from the periodic spectrum X1(f) we isolate Xk(f) = 1 _ TsX(f - 1 __ 2Ts - k _ Ts), with a bandpass filter, and we use it to reconstruct x(t). Since Xk(f) occupies the frequency band [2kW, 2(k + 1)W], then for all k, Xk(f) cannot cover the whole interval [-W,W]. Thus at the output of the reconstruction filter there will exist frequency components which are not present in the input spectrum. Hence, the reconstruction filter has to be a time-varying filter. To see this in the time domain, note that the original spectrum has been shifted by f′ = 1 __ 2Ts. In order to bring the spectrum back to the origin and reconstruct x(t) the sampled signal x1(t) has to be multiplied by e-j2π 1 __ 2Tst = e-j2πWt. However the system described by

is a time-varying system.
3) Using a time-varying system we can reconstruct x(t) as follows. Use the bandpass filter TsΠ(f-W 2W ) to extract the component X(f - 1 __ 2Ts). Invert X(f - 1 __ 2Ts) and multiply the resultant signal by e-j2πWt. Thus

which has the form of a SSB signal since sin(2π(f1 - fm)t) is the Hilbert transform of cos(2π(f1 - fm)t). If we write u(t) as

then with f1 + f2 - fm = fc + fm we obtain an USSB signal centered at fc, whereas with f1 + f2 - fm = fc - fm we obtain the LSSB signal. In both cases the choice of fc and f1 uniquely determine f2.
