Suppose a binary message is transmitted through a noisy channel. The transmitted signal S has uniform probability to be either 1 or −1, the noise N follows normal distribution N(0,4) and the received signal is R=S+N . Assume the receiver conclude the signal to be 1 when R>=0 and -1 when R<0 .

1. What is error probability when one signal is transmitted?

2. What is error probability when one signal is transmitted if we triple the amplitude of the transmitted signal? It means S=3 or -3 with equal probability.

3. What is the error probability if we send the same signal three times (with amplitude 1), and take majority for conlusion? For example, if three received signal was concluded 1, −1, 1 by receiver, we determine the transmitted signal to be 1.

This is a very confusing question please show work!

A source transmitted a message through a noisy channel. Each symbol is 0 or 1 with probability p and 1 − p, respectively and is received incorrectly with probability 0 and 1. Errors in different symbol transmission are independent. (a) What is the probability that the kth symbol is received correctly?

7.15 Channel equalization. We suppose that u1, . . . , um is a signal (time series) that is trans- mitted (for example by radio). A receiver receives the signal y = c ∗ u, where the n-vector c is called the channel impulse response. In most applications n is small, e.g., under 10, and m is much larger. An equalizer is a k-vector h that satisfies h∗c ≈ e1, the first unit vector of length n + k −...

A normalized message signal has a bandwidth of W = 10 KHz and a power of Pm= 0.75 . It is required to transmit this signal via a channel with an available bandwidth of 80 KHz and attenuation of 50 dB. The channel noise is additive and white with a power-spectral density of N0/2 = 10^(-10) watts/Hz. A frequency-modulation scheme, with no pre-emphasis/de-emphasis filtering, has been proposed for this purpose. 1. If it is desirable to have an SNR of...

A 360-m-wide river has a uniform flow speed of 1.5 m/s through a jungle and toward the east. An explorer wishes to leave a small clearing on the south bank and cross the river in a powerboat that moves at a constant speed of 5.8 m/s with respect to the water. There is a clearing on the north bank 65 m upstream from a point directly opposite the clearing on the south bank. (a) At what angle, measured relative to...
