Suggested problems from Oppenheim and Willsky

Chapter 7

  1. Sampling
    1. Impulse Train Sampling
    2. The Sampling Theorem and the Nyquist
  2. Signal Reconstruction Using Interpolation: the fitting of a continuous signal to a set of sample values
    1. Sampling with a Zero-Order Hold (Horizontal Plateaus)
    2. Linear Interpolation (Connect the Samples)
  3. Undersampling: Aliasing
  4. Processing CT Signals Using DT Systems (Vinyl to CD)
    1. Analog vs. Digital: The Show-down (A to D conversion -> Discrete-Time Processing System -> D to A conversion
  5. Sampling DT Signals (CD to MP3 albeit a complicated sampling algorithm, MP3 is less dense signal)

7.1, 7.2, 7.3, 7.4, 7.5, 7.7, 7.10, 7.22, 7.29, 7.31, 7.33

Chapter 8

  1. Complex Exponential and Sinusoidal Amplitude Modulation (You Can Hear the Music on the Amplitude Modulation Radio -Everclear) Systems with the general form $ y(t) = x(t)c(t) $ where $ c(t) $ is the carrier signal and $ x(t) $ is the modulating signal. The carrier signal has its amplitude multiplied (modulated) by the information-bearing modulating signal.
    1. Complex exponential carrier signal: $ c(t) = e^{\omega_c t + \theta_c} $
    2. Sinusoidal carrier signal: $ c(t) = cos(\omega_c t + \theta_c ) $
  2. Recovering the Information Signal $ x(t) $ Through Demodulation
    1. Synchronous
    2. Asynchronous
  3. Frequency-Division Multiplexing (Use the Entire Width of that Frequency Band!)
  4. Single-Sideband Sinusoidal Amplitude Modulation (Save the Bandwidth, Save the World!)
  5. AM with a Pulse-Train Carrier Digital Airwaves
    1. $ c(t) = \sum_{k=-\infty}^{+\infty}\frac{sin(k\omega_c \Delta /2)}{\pi k}e^{jk\omega_c t} $
    2. Time-Division Multiplexing "Dost thou love life? Then do not squander time; for that's the stuff life is made of." -Benjamin Franklin)

Chapter 10

10.1, 10.2, 10.3, 10.4, 10.6, 10.7, 10.8, 10.9, 10.10, 10.11, 10.13, 10.15, 10.21, 10.22, 10.23, 10.24, 10.25, 10.26, 10.27, 10.30, 10.31, 10.32, 10.33, 10.43, 10.44.

Note: If a problem states that you should use “long division”, feel free to use the geometric series formula instead.
