(a) Justifying your answer, tell whether they are linearly independent.
(b) Find a basis for the space generated by the signals.
(c) Draw the signal constellation with respect to this basis.
2. A digital communication system employs the signals s1 (t), s2 (t), and s3 (t) in part 1 above. The
signals are equally probable, the channel is wideband, and the noise is additive, white and
Gaussian with power spectral density N0 /2.
1.
(a) The signals are linearly independent if, for any t, c1 s1 (t) + c2 s2 (t) + c3 s3 (t) = 0 can only
be achieved by c1 = c2 = c3 = 0. Given the particular shape of the signals, we can write
the following set of 4 equations
c1 + c2 + 2c3 = 0 0<t<1
c2 + c3 = 0
1<t<2
c1 + c3 = 0 2<t<3
−c1 + c2 = 0 3<t<4

it turns out the G( f ) satisfies the Nyquist criterion and that g(t0 ) = 2/T .
