For the following question, assume that 1GB = 1,000 MB. And remember the difference between Bits and Bytes. You have been hiking through the arctic with your trusty Siberian Husky "Snowy". All of a sudden you spot a Yeti. You hide behind a snowbank and record a 10 minute video of the yeti with your digital camera. The camera records 4K HDR video at 60fps, at a bitrate of 85Megabits per second. You could be famous! Now you have to get this on social media as quickly as possible. But, since you are in the arctic, your network connectivity is not very fast. Should you: A. Put the storage medium (a MicroSD card) into the collar of Snowy, and have him deliver it to the nearest hut with an Internet connection (about 7 miles away), where your friends could post the video on your behalf? Siberian Huskies can reach a peak speed of up to 28 mp/h. B. Use the Internet connection of your phone to upload the video (your phone has a transfer rate of about 50Mbps). C. Wait for a scheduled helicopter pickup in 10 minutes and use their onboard Internet connection with a transfer rate of 150Mbps. Please explain your reasoning step by step.

1. Compact discs record two channels (left and right) of music at a sampling frequency of ??=44.1kHz for each channel. If each sample is encoded with 16 bits, and one byte is 8 bits, how many bytes are required to store 48.1 seconds of music? 2. Consider a system that uses 8-bit ASCII codes to encode letters. How long (in microseconds) will it take to transmit the bit sequence encoding Hello-World! if we use a bit time of 4 samples per bit, and transmit samples at a rate of 1MHz? 3. The ASCII table below gives the ASCII codes for common alphanumeric characters and symbols listed from MSB to LSB. What is the bit sequence encoding the message 113? Assume that we transmit the codes of each character in sequence with the LSB first.
6. Consider a 4 × 4 pixel image with the following brightness values: 15 15 15 15 15 15 13 15 13 13 10 8 10 8 8 3 We will store this image in bits. (a) What is the entropy of this image? What is the number of bits per pixel for the optimum fixed-length coding? This number is our reference for calculating the compression ratio. (b) (c) For this image, what are the average number of bits per pixel and the corresponding compression ratio for the optimum run-length coding? What are the average number of bits per pixel and the corresponding compression ratio for Huffman coding? Compare the compression ratio with that of run-length coding and the entropy.

If we record a song that is one minute long using 16 bits for each sample and is sampled at 44.1 KHz in mono channel, without any metadata or compression, how large would the file be? Express your answer in MB. Show you work. (Note that 1KHz means 1000Hz while 1K means 1024 (and IM means 10242) for capacity calculations.)
The type of encoding in which manipulation of bit streams without regard to what the bits mean is ..................... a. Destination encoding b. Entropy encoding c. Source encoding d. Differential encoding
An analogue sensor has a bandwidth which extends from very low frequencies up to a maximum of 14.5 kHz. Using the Sampling Theorem (Section 3.3.1), what is the minimum sampling rate (number of samples per second) required to convert the sensor signal into a digital representation? If each sample is now quantised into 2048 levels, what will be the resulting transmitted bitrate in kbps? Give your answer in scientific notation to 1 decimal place. Hint: you firstly need to determine the number of bits per sample that produces 2048 quantisation levels (see Sections 2.4 (Block 1) and 3.3.2 (Block 3)).
A compact disc records audio signal digitally by using PCM. Assume the audio signal bandwidth to be 15khz. i. what is the Nyquist rate? ii.
