13) Consider hearing one’s voice thrice – first, directly, twice, through echo. The 1st echo (arrives at 0.5
seconds after the voice directly reaches) has 50% the strength of the original voice and the 2nd echo (arrives
at 1 second after the voice directly reaches) has 20% the strength.
a. Represent the channel in terms of 𝑥[𝑛]. [2.0] [C02] [BTL3]

distorted channel. [6.0] [C02] [BTL3]
