Understanding the Effect of Sampling on Fourier Domain

This solution is answer to an excercise 7.23 of the Book Openheim, Signal and Systems.
Fig1 : Block Diagram of System

As we can see from the diagram
xp(t)=x(t)×p(t)

in Fourier domain, it can be written as
Xp(jω)=12πX(jω)P(jω)

Now calculation the fourier transform of p(t) is little tricky. It is a periodic signal with period 2T. Let us write it as the same form as section 7.1.1
p(t)=n=n=(1)nδ(tnΔ)

Its fourier transform is given as
P(jω)=n=n=(1)ne(nΔω)

Now we will simplify it using the fact that (Eq 1)
n=n=e(nΔω)=2πΔn=n=δ(ωn2πΔ)

Now ,
 P(jω)=n=n=(1)ne(nΔω)
P(jω)=m=m=(1)2me(2mΔω)+(1)2m+1e(2(m+1)Δω)
  P(jω)=m=m=e(m(2Δ)ω)e(1Δω)e(m(2Δ)ω)
P(jω)=m=m=e(m(2Δ)ω)e(1Δω)m=m=e(m(2Δ)ω)

using the fact above stated (Eq 1)
P(jω)=2π2Δm=m=δ(ωm2π2Δ)e(1Δω)m=m=δ(ωm2π2Δ)
P(jω)=2π2Δ(1e(1Δω))m=m=δ(ωm2π2Δ)
.
 So it is basically scaled version of impulse train.

Now remaining is to convolve this P(jw) with X(jw) (Refer section 7.1.1). Which results in repitition of X(jw) at 1/2delta interval.
