GEORGIA INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY SCHOOL of ELECTRICAL & COMPUTER ENGINEERING Quiz #2 DATE: 14-Mar-13 COURSE: BCE 3084 NAME: Vvt1e STUDENT #: TAST, FIRST Write your name on the front page ONLY. Do not unstaple the test. You should have an additional sheet with Fourier transform tables on one side and Laplace transform tables on the other. some useful tables of Fourier transforms and properties. Do not unstaple the rest. of the test. ‘* No calculators, laptops, phones, or other electronic devices allowed. ‘* Closed book. However, one page (83” x 11”’) of HAND-WRITTEN notes permitted. OK to write on both sides. * Unless stated otherwise, justify your reasoning clearly to receive any partial credit. © You must write your answer in the space provided on the exam paper itself. Only these answers will be graded. Circle your answers, or write them in the boxes provided. If space is needed for scratch work, use the backs of previous pages. © The room is small for the number of stucsnts in this section. BE CAREFUL TO NOT LET YOUR EYES WANDER. Any sort of communication with your fellow students during this exam is strictly forbidden. Any attempt to read off of your neighbor’s exam will result in unpleasant disciplinary action. © Good luck!

In this problem, we wit! explore another strategy called single-sideband ‘modulation (SSB). Block diagrams of an SSB Modulator and an SSB Demodulator are given below. pocc---------- y(t) t 1 cos(w,t) SSB Modulator= SSB Demodulator= Mixer, then highpass filter Mixer, then lowpass filter Hy, is a highpass filter, here specified by: 1 for fo] > 500m Hy (ju) { al 0 otherwise Hp is a lowpass filter, here specified by: Ho(ju) Blu(w + 200n) — u(w - 2007)] Notice this looks very similar to the double-sideband AM communication system you explored in lab; the only change is the addition of the highpass filter Hyr to the modulator. Suppose that c= 500x, and the input signal z(t) has this “typical” Fourier transform X (ju): ‘on A = + 1007 0 100m o We will now trace the input signal through the modulation and demodulation stages to the output by analyzing it in the Fourier domain. In your sketches, be sure to label the amplitudes and correctly note what parts are “shaded” and what parts are “unshaded.” (Keeping careful track of the amplitudes will be important to part (c).) You will find it easiest to think graphically, you will not need to write any complicated equations. ‘The questions are on the following page.eicee att) (a) ( pts) Draw a clearly a labeled siétch of IV(jw), the 2.0468 form ara a c Y, + OTe moved, A Vi Za GON ON e- - £ a aie coe \ ~~ Coo " On w On (b) ( pts) Draw a clearly a labeled sketch of V (jw), the Fourier transform of v(t). wa My ie \ w Woo, 199% -\00T 9 pO Oe logon lOO (c) (5 pts) What value of B, the gain of ‘e .owpass filter in the demodulator, would make the output exactly equal the input, ie. y(t) = 2(¢)?

We'll assume that the potentiometer is turned all the way “up,” so it just acts as a 500KO resistor to ground, ‘The transfer function H(s) that describes how the output of the bright boost circuit, y(t) (the voltage, referenced to ground, at the junction of the 0.002F capacitor and both 500K2 resistors), relates to the input of the bright boost circuit x(t) (the voltage, referenced to ground, at the junction of the 0.002F capacitor, the 500K9 resistor that is in parallel with it, and the 0.02uF coupling capacitor) can be written as ste HO) = 5 ‘To emphasize, we are treating «(t) as the input and y(t) as the output of the part of the circuit we are analyzing, not the words “input” and “output” on the schematic.
