This page lists the topics covered on the second test for ECE 280 Fall 2021. This will cover everything through Homework 7 and all lecture material ending just before the start of Laplace Transforms. There are sample tests for Dr. G at Test Bank - note that in some semesters we covered discrete-time transforms and also in some semesters we had some Laplace on Test 2. Neither case is true for Fall 2021.

Test II Coverage

  1. Everything on Test 1
  2. Fourier Series (Continuous Time only)
    • Know the synthesis and analysis equations
    • Be able to set up integrals or summations to determine \(x(t)\) or \(X[k]\) for periodic signals
    • Know how to find the actual Fourier Series coefficients for periodic signals made up of cos and sin
    • Be able to use the Fourier Series and Fourier Series Property tables
  3. Fourier Transform (Continuous Time)
    • Know the synthesis and analysis equations
    • Be able to set up integrals or summations to determine \(x(t)\) or \(X(j\omega)\) for signals that have Fourier Transforms
    • Be able to use the Fourier Transform and Fourier Transform Property tables
    • Be able to use partial fraction expansion as an interim step of inverse Fourier Transforms
  4. Sampling and Reconstruction
    • Know, understand, and be able to reproduce the process of sampling with an impulse train of unit amplitude at a given sampling rate with sampling period \(T_S\).
    • Understand the necessity for a band-limited input signal and the relationship between the band-limit and the sampling rate required to make sure aliasing does not happen.
    • Be able to sketch the spectra for signals as they pass through block diagrams - to include filters as well as multiplication by periodic signals; be able to use these sketches to determine values or limits on values for samplers and reconstruction systems.
  5. Communication Systems
    • Know, understand, and be able to reproduce the basic block diagrams for Full AM and DSB-SC Modulation.
    • Know, understand, and be able to reproduce the circuit for envelope detection. You will not be required to determine values for the circuit elements.
    • Know, understand, and be able to reproduce the basic block diagram for a demodulator using coherent detection.
    • For Full AM and DSB-SC, and given system parameters and particular input signals, be able to sketch the frequency domain of transmitted and reconstructed signals.
    • If given a description of block diagram showing a system formed by a combination of filters, product oscillators, summation blocks, and multiplication blocks, be able to graphically and (if reasonably) analytically determine the frequency spectrum at each stage as a signal passes through the system.
