The lower branch contains an upsampler followed by a delay and a downsampler. The output of such a system is easily seen to be $0$. Thus only the upper branch remains and the final transfer function of the system is given by
\begin{eqnarray*}
\frac{Y(z)}{X(z)}=A(z).
\end{eqnarray*}
\item System 1 is described by the following equation %
\item We need to change the sampling rate so that, when $y[n]$ is interpolated at 44.1~KHz its spectrum is equal to $S(f)$. The rational sampling rate change factor is clearly $33/78$ which is simply $11/26$ after factoring. The processing scheme is as follows:
where $L(z)$ is a lowpass filter with cutoff frequency $\pi/26$ and gain $L_0=11$; both the sampler and interpolator work at $F_s =1/T_s =44100$~Hz. We have:
\begin{eqnarray*}
X_c(f) & = &\frac{26}{11}\ S\left( \frac{26}{11}\, f \right) \\
\item The sampling rate change scheme stays the same except that now $45/78=15/26$. Therefore, the final upsampler has to compute more samples than in the previous scheme. The computational load of the sampling rate change is entirely dependent on the filter $L(z)$. If we upsample more before the output, we need to compute more filtered samples and therefore at 45rpm the scheme is less efficient.
Given that $X(e^{j \omega })=0$ for $\frac{\pi}{3} \leq | \omega | \leq\pi$, $x[n]$ can be thought of as a signal that has been sampled at $3$ times the Nyquist frequency. Therefore, we can downsample the signal without losing information at least by a factor of 3.
\begin{enumerate}
\item Assume $n_0$ is odd; we can then downsample $x[n]$ by 2, without loss of information and the corrupted sample will be discarded in the downsampling operation. We can then upsample by 2 and recover the original signal eliminating the error. If $n_0$ is even, simply shift the signal by 1 and perform the same operation.
\item If the value of $n_0$ is not known, we need to determine whether $n_0$ is odd or even. We can write
since, by hypothesis, $X(e^{j \frac{\pi}{2} })=0$. Therefore, If $\hat{X}(e^{j \frac{\pi}{2} })$ is real, $n_0$ is even and if it is imaginary, $n_0$ is odd.
\item If there are $k$ corrupted samples, the worst case is when the corrupted samples are consecutive. In that case we need to downsample $\hat{x}[n]$ by a factor of $k$ and then upsample it back. To do so without loss of information it must be:
