I like how you state the differences between the two operators in your introduction, but then conclude by stating how the two operators are related through the Fourier transform. Your derivations are also concise. I think it would be helpful to some if you explain some of the less intuitive steps, such as when you use the Fourier series representation of an impulse train. Well done, overall.

Going over the equations and the mathematics, it was very clear to understand. However, to explain how the functions look like, it would be better to put some graphs on. Great job!

**The content of your Slecture is easy to follow. It really helped me review this topic. What I liked most was the step by step explanations and as Miguel said, few steps can be added at the end of the content to explain the Fourier Transform of the rep operator, that would be a nice improvement. Good job!

* Review by Sahil Sanghani 
 
Overall this is a great Slecture! I like how the derivations are concise and clear. Also, the explanations along the way draw attention to important points. I think the one spot where you could explain a little more is in the Fourier Transform of the comb. In the second line, the substitution of <math>p_{T}(t)</math> with <font style="vertical-align:-125%;"><math>\sum_{n=-\infty}^{\infty}\frac{1}{T}e^{j{\frac{2 \pi}{T}}nt}</math> <br /> could be better explained. Great job!

Fantastic slecture. I really like how you used the definition of each operator and showed how the impulse train interacts with the rep and the comb. The fact that you placed the definitions back to back personally helped me see the correlations between the two, particularly that one is a convolution and the other is a multiplication.

Well done. Everything is put in very good order. The demonstrations for both comb and rep are specific and easy to follow. Maybe you could try to provide some graphs to show your point. Sometimes I feel very useful to just look at the graphs and suddenly get the idea about how everything is going on.

This is a high-quality slecture. Each of the main points was addressed clearly and succinctly.

Though your wording was clear enough not to demand it, the only improvement I see would be including a couple archetypical graphical examples.

I continue to get a little confused when I see the sampling of an impulse train, whether it matters if the summation uses an "n" or "k" variable. For example, in your definition of impulse train you used both by mistake:<br>
 +
<math>
 +
\begin{align}
 +
p_T(t) = \sum_{n=-\infty}^{\infty}\delta(t-kT)
 +
\end{align}
 +
</math>
 +
<br>
 +
<br>
 +
It would have been nice to have all the simplification steps you used mentioned in words, for example
 +
<math>\begin{align}comb_T(x(t)) :&= x(t)p_T(t) \\
 +
&= x(t)\sum_{k=-\infty}^{\infty}\delta(t-kT) \\
 +
&= \sum_{k=-\infty}^{\infty}x(t)\delta(t-kT) \\
 +
&= \sum_{k=-\infty}^{\infty}x(kt)\delta(t-kT) \end{align}</math><br>
 +
In the last line, why x(t) could be moved inside the summation and the corresponding dirac delta property that made it so. There is a small but important simplification mistake in this last line, it should be <br>
 +
<math> = \sum_{k=-\infty}^{\infty}x(kT)\delta(t-kT) </math> <br>notice the capital T in the change that I made.
 +
<br>
 +
It also would have been more clear to relate the rep and comb operations to variables such as <math>X_{sampled}(f)</math>. Which I think falls into the realm of having an example/graphs to help illustrate the point.

Overall, this topic was done well.
