Q1. The transfer function of a discrete time LTI system is given by

Consider the following statements:
S1: The system is stable and causal for ROC: |z| > 1/2
S2: The system is stable but not causal for ROC: |z| < 1/4
S3: The system is neither stable nor causal for ROC: 1/4 < |z| < 1/2
Which one of the following statements is valid ?
Answer : Option C
Explaination / Solution:


By partial fraction H(z) can be written as

For ROC : |z| > 1/2

Thus system is causal. Since ROC of H(z) includes unit circle, so it is stable also. Hence S1 is True
For ROC : |z| < 1/4

System is not causal. ROC of H(z) does not include unity circle, so it is not stable and S3 is True

Q2. Consider a silicon sample at T=300K, with a uniform donor density  illuminated uniformly such that the optical generation rate is  throughout the sample. The incident radiation is turned off at 𝑡=0. Assume low-level injection to be valid and ignore surface effects. The carrier lifetimes are

Q4. A transmission line of characteristic impedance 50 W is terminated in a load impedance ZL. The VSWR of the line is measured as 5 and the first of the voltage maxima in the line is observed at a distance of λ/4 from the load. The value of ZL is
Answer : Option A
Explaination / Solution:

Since voltage maxima is observed at a distance of λ/4 from the load and we know that the separation between one maxima and minima equals to λ/4 so voltage minima will be observed at the load, Therefore load can not be complex it must be pure resistive.

 also RL = R0/s (since voltage maxima is formed at the load)
 R= (50/5)Ω
