The objective of these introductory problems are to introduce the novice to simple relations between the sampling rate and the bit rate in PCM coded sequences.
Consider an audio signal, $s(n)$, sampled at $44.1 \mathrm{kHz}$ and digitized using a) 8-bit, b) 24-bit, and c) 32-bit resolution. Compute the data rates for the cases (a)-(c). Give the number of samples within a 16-ms frame and compute the number of bits per frame.
