Find Mean and Variance of Random Variable X. Which is
1 Uniformly distributed between a and b, a< b. CO3 K3
Consider the random process
V(t) = COS(ω0t + Ɵ)
Where Ɵ is a random variable with a probability density
f(Ɵ) = 1/ 2П -П ≤ Ɵ ≥ П
= 0 elsewhere

(a) Show that the first and second moments of V(t) are
independent of time.
(b) If the random variable Ɵ is replaced by a fixed angle Ɵ0,
will the ensemble mean of V(t) be time independent?
Given a white noise of magnitude ƞ = 0.001μ W/Hz is fed to
following
(a) An RC low pass filter of R=1000 ohm and C=0.1μF
(b) An ideal low pass filter of bandwidth =1000 Hz and
(c) A differentiator followed by an ideal low pass filter in (b)
3 for Differentiator consider proportionality constant CO3 K3
Ʈ = 0.01 unit.
Find output noise power in each case. How does result
change in each case if low pass cut-off frequency is
doubled in each case?
An audio signal of 4 KHz bandwidth is to be transmitted through
a channel that introduces 30dB loss and white noise of power
4 CO3 K3
spectral density 10-9 W/Hz. Calculate required minimum
transmitter power if the message is sent by SSB,DSB-SC and
DSB-C modulation. The received output SNR should be more
than 40 dB. For DSB-C, energy in sideband is half the energy in
carrier.
The time average of the square of a modulating message signal
of 60 kHz bandwidth is calculated as 0.1 W. The signal is used in
DSB-C modulation with carrier power 10W. If additive white
5 noise power spectral density is 10-6 W/Hz. Find output SNR for a CO3 K3
square demodulator. Also find output SNR if carrier power is
reduced by 100 times.
(i)For an FM demodulation system following specification is
given. Baseband filter bandwidth = 15kHz, Carrier filter
bandwidth = 60 kHz,
6 RMS frequency deviation = 30 kHz. Find output SNR for input CO3 K3
SNR (a) 10 dB, (b)20 dB and (c) 30 dB.
(ii) Cite reason if any of (a)-(c) lie below threshold.
