3 a) Consider a random process X(t) = Acos(2πfct+ø) where A and fc are constants and ø is (7)
uniformly distributed over the interval (-π, π). Check whether the given random process
is WSS.

system has a frequency response of 3.2 kHz. If the binary data is transmitted at 9600 bps
data rate, then what would be the symbol rate and roll-off factor of the transmitted pulse
shape for zero ISI?
PART B
Answer any two full questions, each carries 15 marks.
4 a) Given the signals s1 (t ), s2 (t ), s3 (t ) and s4 (t ) shown in Figure. Use the Gram-Schmidt (8)
orthogonalization procedure to find an orthonormal basis for the set of following signals:

b) Find mean and variance of received signal x(t), if signal si(t) was transmitted which is (7)
corrupted by AWGN with zero mean such that x(t)= si(t) +w(t),where w(t) is AWGN.
5 a) Derive an expression for probability of error for BPSK. (8)
