ISRO Electronics & Communication (ECE) 2017 - Question 25

All ISRO Electronics & Communication (ECE) papers | ISRO Electronics & Communication (ECE) 2017

Topic: Signals and Systems

Which of the following statement is not true

  • A. Autocorrelation function and energy spectral density forms a Fourier transform pair
  • B. Autocorrelation function of a real valued energy signal is a real valued odd function
  • C. The value of autocorrelation function of a power signal at the origin is equal to the average power of the signal
  • D. Autocorrelation function is the inverse Fourier transform of power spectral density

Answer: B. Autocorrelation function of a real valued energy signal is a real valued odd function

Explanation: The autocorrelation function $R_{xx}(\tau)$ of a real-valued signal is an even function, meaning $R_{xx}(\tau) = R_{xx}(-\tau)$. Therefore, the statement that it is a real-valued odd function is incorrect.
