A unit-amplitude pulse with duration of one second serves as the input to an RC-circuit having transfer function
How would you categorize this transfer function:
lowpass, highpass, bandpass, other?
Find a circuit that corresponds to this transfer function.
Find an expression for the filter's output.
Reverberation
Reverberation corresponds to adding to a signal its
delayed version.
Assuming
represents the delay, what is the input-output
relation for a reverberation system? Is the systemlinear and time-invariant? If so, find the transfer
function; if not, what linearity or time-invariancecriterion does reverberation violate.
A music group known as the ROwls is having trouble
selling its recordings. The record company'sengineer gets the idea of applying different delay
to the low and high frequencies and adding theresult to create a new musical effect. Thus, the
ROwls' audio would be separated into two parts (oneless than the frequency
,
the other greater than
),
these would be delayed by
and
respectively, and the resulting signals added. Drawa block diagram for this new audio processing
system, showing its various components.
How does the magnitude of the system's transfer
function depend on the two delays?
Echoes in telephone systems
A frequently encountered problem in telephones is echo.
Here, because of acoustic coupling between the ear pieceand microphone in the handset, what you hear is also
sent to the person talking. That person thus not onlyhears you, but also hears her own speech delayed
(because of propagation delay over the telephonenetwork) and attenuated (the acoustic coupling gain is
less than one). Furthermore, the same problem appliesto you as well: The acoustic coupling occurs in her
handset as well as yours.
Develop a block diagram that describes this
situation.
Find the transfer function between your voice and
what the listener hears.
Each telephone contains a system for reducing echoes
using electrical means. What simple system couldnull the echoes?
Effective drug delivery
In most patients, it takes time for the concentration of an administered drug to achieve a constant level in the blood stream.
Typically, if the drug concentration in the patient's intravenous line is
, the concentration in the patient's blood stream is
.
Assuming the relationship between drug concentration in the patient's drug and the delivered concentration can be described as a linear, time-invariant system, what is the transfer function?
Sometimes, the drug delivery system goes awry and delivers drugs with little control.
What would the patient's drug concentration be if the delivered concentration were a ramp?More precisely, if it were
?
A clever doctor wants to have the flexibility to slow down or speed up the patient's drug concentration.
In other words, the concentration is to be
, with
bigger or smaller than
.
How should the delivered drug concentration signal be changed to achieve this concentration profile?
Step 1: Find the mean. To find the mean, add up all the scores, then divide them by the number of scores. ...
Step 2: Find each score's deviation from the mean. ...
Step 3: Square each deviation from the mean. ...
Step 4: Find the sum of squares. ...
Step 5: Divide the sum of squares by n – 1 or N.
The sample of 16 students is taken. The average age in the sample was 22 years with astandard deviation of 6 years. Construct a 95% confidence interval for the age of the population.
Bhartdarshan' is an internet-based travel agency wherein customer can see videos of the cities they plant to visit. The number of hits daily is a normally distributed random variable with a mean of 10,000 and a standard deviation of 2,400
a. what is the probability of getting more than 12,000 hits?
b. what is the probability of getting fewer than 9,000 hits?
