Interpolating function for the samples
Let $x(t)$ be band-limited with $B = \omega_m$. Sampling gives us $$x(nT_s) = \begin{cases}
1, & n = 0 \\
0, & n \not = 0
\end{cases}$$
And $\omega_s = 2\omega_m = \frac{2\pi}{T_s}$. Find ...

Reconstruct $x(t)$ from $y(t)$ and $z(t)$
Let $x(t)$ be band-limited signal with $X(j\omega) = 0$ for $|\omega|\gt \omega_M$. We use $$s(t) = \sum_{k =-\infty}^{+\infty}(-1)^k\delta(t - \frac{kT}{2})$$ for sampling. So we have $z(t) = x(t)s(t)...
