    On picking up fourth sample of x [n], we get
    V1 [n] = x [4n]
    On time reversing V1 [n], we get
    V2 [n] = x [– 4n]
    Now on delaying V2 [n] by 3 samples, we get
    y[n] = x [3 – 4n]

    Correct Option: D

    Frequency (v) of output must be equal to input frequency (ω),while β will depend on system parameters and need not be equal to α.

    Correct Option: A


    Frequency (v) of output must be equal to input frequency (ω),while β will depend on system parameters and need not be equal to α.


  1. The Fourier Series coefficients, of a periodic signal x(t),expressed as

    are given by
    a–2 = – j1; a–2 = 0.5 + j0.2; ao = j2; a1 = 0.5 – j0.2; a2= 2+ j1; and ak = 0; for |k| > 2.
    Which of the following is true?

    So imaginary part of x(t) is constant = 2
    x(t) has finite energy because only finite coefficients are zero.

    If h1 (t), h2 (t) and h3 (t) are the impulse response of the three LTI-systems, then
    Overall response of the system is h(t) = G1 (t) × G2 (t) × G3 (t)
    Assuming t1, t2, t3 are the initial points of three systems,
    then, by convolution theorem, initial point for The combined system t = t1 + t2 + t3
    As the entire system is causal, therefore h(t) > 0 for t > 0
    For this condition, t > 0 to be true, at least one of the time t1, t2, t3 must be greater than zero.
    i.e. one of the system must be causal. As far as stability is concerned, if the system becomes unstable, the entire system will be unstable.
