Problem 1

Consider a ternary communication system where the source produces three possible symbols: 0, 1, 2.

a) Assign three modulation signals $s_1(t)$ , $s_2(t)$ , and $s_3(t)$ defined on $t\in \left[0 , T\right]$ to these symbols, 0, 1, and 2, respectively. Make sure that these signals are not orthogonal and assume that the symbolshave an equal probability of being generated.

b) Consider an orthonormal basis ${}_1(t)$ , ${}_2(t)$ , ..., ${}_{\mathrm{N}}(t)$ to represent these three signals. Obviously $N$ could be either 1, 2, or 3.

Now consider two different receivers to decide which one of the symbols were transmitted when $r_t=s_m(t)+N_t$ is received where $m=\{1, 2, 3\}$ and $N_t$ is a zero mean white Gaussian process with $S_N(f)=\frac{N_0}{2}$ for all $f$ . What is $f_{r|s_m\left(t\right)}$ and what is $f_{Y|s_m\left(t\right)}$ ?

Find the probability that $\hat{m}\neq m$ for both receivers. $P_e=(\hat{m}\neq m)$ .

Problem 3

Suppose our modulation signals are $s_1(t)$ and $s_2(t)$ where $s_1(t)=e^{-t^2}$ for all $t$ and $s_2(t)=-s_1(t)$ . The channel noise is AWGN with zero mean and spectral height $\frac{N_0}{2}$ . The signals are transmitted equally likely.

Find the impulse response of the optimum filter. Find the signal component of the output of the matched filter at $t=T$ where $s_1(t)$ is transmitted; i.e. , $u_1(t)$ . Find the probability of error $(\hat{m}\neq m)$ .

In this part, assume that the power spectral density of the noise is not flat and in fact is

c) Find an expression for the probability of error.
