Sampling Theory and Pulse Modulation Question & AnswersJuly 6, 2021 By WatElectronics This article lists 100 Sampling Theory and Pulse Modulation MCQs for engineering students. All the Sampling Theory and Pulse Modulation Questions & Answers given below includes solution and link wherever possible to the relevant topic.Sampling theory is a basic process to convert continuous-time signals to discrete-time signals. When we convert continuous-time signal to discrete-time signal, we need to take a sufficient number of samples, so that we can reconstruct the original signal from the sampled signal. The number of samples to be taken mainly depends on the maximum frequency of the signal. Basically, there are three types of sampling they are ideal sampling, natural sampling, and flat-top sampling. The amplitude, position, width are the different parameters to characterize a pulse. 1).
