Note: i) Question paper consists of Part A, Part B. ii) Part A is compulsory, which carries 25 marks. iii) In Part B, Answer any one question from each unit.

Part A

125 marks
a

Define Resolution.

2 marks

Answer

Resolution is defined as the smallest change in the measured physical quantity that can be detected and displayed by an instrument. It represents the smallest increment of the input signal that produces a detectable change in the output reading.

b

Explain about Pulse code Modulation.

3 marks

Answer

Pulse Code Modulation (PCM) is a method used to digitally represent sampled analog signals. The process involves three main steps:

  • Sampling: The continuous analog signal is sampled at discrete time intervals.
  • Quantization: Each sample is assigned a discrete value from a finite set of levels.
  • Encoding: Each quantized value is converted into a binary code (a sequence of pulses) for transmission or processing.
