Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
What is the minimum sampling rate required in order to recovered the information signal?
A
The sampling rate must be at least the same as the highest frequency of the intelligence signal.
B
The sampling rate must be at least 2 times the highest frequency of the intelligence signal.
C
The sampling rate must be at least 1.5 times the highest frequency of the intelligence signal.
D
The sampling rate must be at least 3 times the highest frequency of the intelligence signal.
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Since this is a low-pass signal, it frequency characteristics starts at 0 Hz. Hence, the highest frequency in the spectrum is 200 kHz. Thus, the minimum sampling rate is 400 kHz.

Detailed explanation-2: -The minimum sampling rate allowed by the sampling theorem (fs = 2W) is called the Nyquist rate.
