Benefit(s) of Bandpass sampling over low pass sampling
- A. It reduces speed requirement of A/D convertor
- B. Increase the amount of digital memory necessary to capture a given interval of signal
- C. Both (a) and (b) are correct
- D. Both (a) and (b) are incorrect
Answer: A. It reduces speed requirement of A/D convertor
Explanation: Bandpass sampling (also known as undersampling) allows a bandpass signal to be sampled at a rate determined by its bandwidth rather than its highest frequency. This significantly reduces the required sampling rate, which in turn reduces the speed requirement of the A/D converter and decreases the memory needed to store the sampled data.
