Three analog signals, having bandwidths 1200 Hz, 600 Hz, 600 Hz are sampled at their Nyquist rates, encoded with 12 bit words, and time division multiplexed. The bit rate for the multiplexed signal is
115.2 kbps
28.8 kbps
57.6 kbps
38.4 kbps
Answer: Option
Explanation:

The total message bandwidth = 1200 Hz + 600 Hz + 600 Hz = 2400 Hz

Sampling frequency = 4800 samples/sec.

Hence, Bit rate = 4800 x 12

57.6 kbps.

The maximum frequency component is 1200 hz.

So, fm = 1200 Hz.
fs = 2*1200 Hz = 2400 Hz.

B.W = n*fs = 12*2400.
Rb/2 = B.W.

Hence, Rb = 12*2400*2 = 57.6 kbps.

You are right @Rohit.

You are wrong @Rohit Prakash.

The relation rb=2(BW) is a completely different Question, that's channel bandwidth and maximum possible bit rate relation.Here we need to find sampling frequency which is the 2xsum of all frequencies(not twice the highest) and then Ts=nTb or Rb=nFs.

True @Adarshdm.

Here signals are being time division multiplexed. No need to choose higher frequency component!
