What is the minimum number of quantization bits required for the maximum quantization error to be within 0.5% of the maximum acceptable peak-to-peak signal amplitude for a uniform quantizer?

(a)  

The output SNR of a 3-bit uniform quantizer for a full-scale sinusoidal signal (i.e. having maximum acceptable amplitude) is

• 32

• 64

• 96

The improvement in SNR (in dB) obtained after quadrupling the number of quantization levels for an ADC is

A digital transmitter sends 125 different voice channels using TDM after ADC. Each analog voice signal is band-limited to 4 kHz and sampled at 125% of the Nyquist rate with 256 levels of quantization. What is the data rate (in Mbps) of the transmitter?
