  YES: Taking the FT of c(t) we get delta functions at wc and -wc. When convolved with the FT of the input signal X(jw), the function X(jw) gets shifted to wc and -wc with ranges (-wc-wm) to (-wc+wm) and (wc-wm) to (wc+wm). Therefore (wc-wm) > (-wc+wm) must hold for there to be no overlapping. This is equivalent to 2wc > 2wm => wc > wm. Since wc > 2wm, there is no overlapping and x(t) can be recovered.

(a)The Fourier transform of X(jw) of a continuous-time signal x(t) is periodic

MAY BE: X(jw) is periodic only if x(t) is periodic

(b)The Fourier transform of X(ejw) of a continuous-time signal x[n] is periodic

YES: X(ejw) is always periodic with period 2pi

(c)If the FT of X(ejw) of a discrete-time signal x[n] is given as: X(ejw) = 3 + 3cos(3w), then the signal x[n] is periodic

MAY BE:

(d)If the FT of X(jw) of a continuous-time signal x(t) consists of only impulses, then x(t) is periodic

MAY BE: e^jw0n has a FT that is an impulse

(e)Lets denote X(jw) the FT of a continuous-time non-zero signal x(t). If x(t) is an odd signal, then $ \int_{-\infty}^{\infty} X(j\omega) d\omega = 0 $

YES: this eqation is the same as $ \int_{-\infty}^{\infty} X(j\omega) e^{-j\omega_0t}d\omega = 0 $ where t = 0. From this we can conclude that x(0) = 0, which holds true for odd signals.

(f)Lets denote X(jw) the FT of a continuous-time non-zero signal x(t). If x(t) is an odd signal, then $ \int_{-\infty}^{\infty} |X(j\omega)|^2 d\omega = 0 $

NO: from parseval's relation, we see that $ \int_{-\infty}^{\infty} |X(j\omega)|^2 d\omega = 0 = 2\pi \int_{-\infty}^\infty |x(t)|^2 dt  $ The integral of the magnitude squared will allways be positive for an odd signal.

(g)Lets denot X(ejw) the FT of a DT signal x[n]. If X(ej0) = 0, then x[n] = 0.

MAY BE: X(ej0) is simply X(ejw) evaluated at w = 0. This does not tell you anything about the original signal x[n] other than x[0] = 0.

(i)Let x(t) be a continuous time real-valued signal for which X(jw) = 0 when |w| > wm where wm is a real and positive number. Denote the modulated signal y(t) = x(t)c(t) where c(t) = cos(wct) and wc is a real, positive nubmer. IF wc is greater than 2wm, x(t) can be recovered from y(t).

YES: Taking the FT of c(t) we get delta functions at wc and -wc. When convolved with the FT of the input signal X(jw), the function X(jw) gets shifted to wc and -wc with ranges (-wc-wm) to (-wc+wm) and (wc-wm) to (wc+wm). Therefore (wc-wm) > (-wc+wm) must hold for there to be no overlapping. This is equivalent to 2wc > 2wm => wc > wm. Since wc > 2wm, there is no overlapping and x(t) can be recovered.


(j)Let x(t) be a continuous time real-valued signal for which X(jw) = 0 when |w| > 40pi. Denote the modulated signal y(t) = x(t)c(t) where c(t) = e{jwct} and wc is a real, positive nubmer. There is a constraint of wc to guarantee that x(t) can be recovered from y(t).

NO: The FT of c(t) is just a shifted delta function, which will simply shift the input signal x(t) so there is no chance of overlapping.
