Explanation of Solution

Given:

  Analog voltage = 2 sin4πt mVTime increment = 1/8s,1/5s,1/3s,1/21sThe data set comprised of N Points, N =128

Concept Used:

At any sampling intervalδt ,E(t)=2 sin4π×δ(t)

Calculation:

Forδt=1/8s=0.125s.

At timeδt=0 ,

  E(t) = 2 sin4π×0E(t) = 0

At timeδt=0.125s ,

  E(t) = 2 sin(4π×0.125)E(t) = 2 mV

To compute the remaining points ofE(t) using an increment of 0.125s, we use a spreadsheet tool.

The analog signal was converted into a discrete time signal using a spreadsheet tool and a plot of amplitude vs time has been plotted for the time increment of 1/8 s.

Forδt=1/5s=0.2s.

At timeδt=0 ,

  E(t) = 2 sin4π×0E(t) = 0

At timeδt=0.2s ,

  E(t) = 2 sin(4π×0.2)E(t) = 1.175 mV

To compute the remaining points ofE(t) using an increment of 0.2s, we use a spreadsheet tool.

The analog signal was converted discrete time signal using a spreadsheet tool and a plot of amplitude vs time has been plotted for the time increment of 1/5 s.

Forδt=1/3s=0.33s.

At timeδt=0 ,

  E(t) = 2 sin4π×0E(t) = 0

At timeδt=0.33s ,

  E(t) = 2 sin(4π×0.33)E(t) = 1.688 mV

To compute the remaining points ofE(t) using an increment of 0.333 s, we use a spreadsheet tool.

The analog signal was converted discrete time signal using a spreadsheet tool and a plot of amplitude vs time has been plotted for the time increment of 1/3 s.

At timeδt=0,

  E(t) = 2 sin4π×0E(t) = 0

At timeδt=0.047s ,

  E(t) = 2 sin(4π×0.047)E(t) = 1.126 mV

To compute the remaining points ofE(t) using an increment of 0.0476s, we use a spreadsheet tool, The graph plotted between the amplitude and time interval is:

The analog signal was converted discretized time signal using a spreadsheet tool and a plot of amplitude vs time has been plotted for the time increment of 1/21 s.

The nature of the plot forδt= 1/3s is different when compared to the other sampling frequencies. Hence, it possesses different sampling and does not meet the required criterion.
