20.
A speech signal, band limited to 4kHz and peak voltage varying between + 5V and - 5V is sampled at the Nyquist rate. Each sample is quantized and represented by 8 bits. If the bits 0 and 1 are transmitted using bipolar pulses, the minimum bandwidth required for distortion free transmission is
64 kHz
32 kHz
8 kHz
4 kHz
Answer: Option
Explanation:

According to Nyquist Criteria, minimum sampling frequency = 2 x 4 k = 8 kHz

But each cycle can accommodate two bits

Thus minimum frequency = 4 kHz.
