Lab. 4 Sampling and Rate Conversion

Sampling:

The Fourier transform of an impulse train is still an impulse train.

Spectrum:

To avoid aliasing, a filter is generally applied before the downsampling operation.

Upsampling:

x(n) Xd(n)= x(Mn)

LPFCutoff=/M

x(n) Xu(n)= x(n/L)( / ), 0, , 2 ,

The upsampling process is then equivalent to increase the sampling rate by a factor of L.

The filtering operation is also known as interpolation.

x(n) Xu(n)

LPFCutoff=/L

Gain=L

11

Practice 1:– Generate a sinusoidal signal, downsample the signal, and

observe the its spectrum.

– Determine the maximum downsampling rate such that the aliasing will not occur.

– Then upsample the downsampled signal, and observe its spectrum.

12

General filter design:– Pass band

– Stop band

– Transition band

– Passband ripple/stopband ripple

A lowpass filter

13

The analog filter design (IIR):– 1. Butterworth, 2. Chebychev I, 3. Chebychev II, 4. Ellipic

Fdatool in Matlab:

Practice 2:– Generate a sinusoidal signal, downsample the signal (no

aliasing), and then upsample the downsampled signal.

– Design an FIR LPF and let the upsampled signal pass the filter such that the upsampled signal is similar to the original signal.

– Calculate the MSE of these two interpolation schemes.

16

Practice 3:– Create an random digital signal and upsampled it with a

selected factor.

– Observe the spectrum of the upsampled signal.

Reading assigment:– Pulse shaping (CS: 4.5)

– RC, SRRC

Filter design(FDA tool)– Key “fdatool” in the console of MATLAB

– Adjust parameters for your requirement

– Press “Filter coefficients” to get filter time-domain response h[n]

– Convolve h[n] in your C program to implement lowpass filtering

Plot spectrum in MATLAB– Plot( abs( fft( x ) ) )

• fft(): Fast Fourier Transform, frequency interval is [0 fs]

• abs(): get magnitude
