Practice Question on the Nyquist rate of a signal

Is the following signal band-limited? (Answer yes/no and justify your answer.)

$ x(t)= 7 \frac{\sin (3 \pi t)}{\pi t} \ $>

If you answered "yes", what is the Nyquist rate for this signal?

Answer 1

Yes, this signal is band limited. It is a sinc function, and its Fourier transform can be found using the table of formulas in the textbook on page 329.

$ \mathcal X (\omega) = \begin{cases} 1 & \Big|\omega\Big| < 3\pi \\ 0 & \mbox{otherwise} \end{cases} $

This is band limited.

In addition, the $ \omega_m $ is $ 3\pi $.

Therefore the Nyquist rate for this signal is $ 6\pi $.
