Question
Let the signalbe passed through an LTI system with frequency response , as given in the figure below
The Fourier series representation of the output is given as

Correct answer
(C) 4000 cos(2000π t)
Solution
The signal is a periodic impulse train with alternating signs. The period is s. The fundamental frequency is rad/s.
The Fourier series coefficients are .
Thus, for odd and for even.
The signal is
The LTI system is a low-pass filter with a cutoff frequency of and gain 1. Only the component at passes through.
Output .
