What is the program that is used to speed the spectrum analysis process?

A)

DDFT

B)

FGPA

C)

FDFT

D)

Fast Fourier transforms

Correct Answer : Fast Fourier transforms

Explanation : The DFT is a complex program that is long and time-consuming to run. In general, computers are not fast enough to perform DFT in real time as the signal occurs. Therefore, a special version of the algorithm has been developed to speed up the calculation. Known as the fast Fourier transform (FFT), it permits real-time signal spectrum analysis.

Which type of architecture uses different storage space for program code and the data?

A)

Split cell architecture

B)

Fragmented architecture

C)

Harvard architecture

D)

Von Neumann architecture

Correct Answer : Option (C) : Harvard architecture

Explanation : In a Harvard architecture microprocessor, there are two memories, a program or instruction memory, usually a ROM, and a data memory, which is a RAM. Also, there are two data paths into and out of the CPU between the memories. Because both instructions and data can be accessed simultaneously, very high-speed operation is possible.

What is the accessibility limitation of only one data or instruction set at a time from the memory called?

A)

Von Neumann limit

B)

Von Neumann bottleneck

C)

Von Neumann speed

D)

Von Neumann limitation

Correct Answer : Option (B) : Von Neumann bottleneck

Explanation : The accessibility limitation of only one data or instruction set at a time from the memory is called as Von Neumann bottleneck. This has the effect of greatly limiting the execution speed.

What is the reason for the need of high speed DSP?

A)

Easily programmable

B)

High sampling frequency

C)

Better processing capabilities

D)

Less power consumption at higher speeds

Correct Answer : Option (B) : High sampling frequency

Explanation : The time taken for input/output and the processing time together must be smaller than the sampling period to ensure the continuous flow of data. Since high sampling frequencies are needed for accurately converting the analog signal to digital, high speed DSP is a must.
