Digital communication system
• Important features of a DCS:
– Transmitter sends a waveform from a finite set of
possible waveforms during a limited time
Slide 6
Digital versus analog
• Advantages of digital communications:
– Regenerator receiver
Original Regenerated
pulse pulse
Propagation distance
Slide 7
Classification of signals
• Deterministic and random signals
– Deterministic signal: No uncertainty with respect to
the signal value at any time.
Slide 8
Classification of signals …
• Periodic and non-periodic signals
A discrete signal
Analog signals
Slide 9
Classification of signals ..
• Energy and power signals
– A signal is an energy signal if, and only if, it has nonzero
but finite energy for all time:
– A signal is a power signal if, and only if, it has finite but
nonzero power for all time:
Slide 10
Random process
• A random process is a collection of time functions, or signals,
corresponding to various outcomes of a random experiment.
For each outcome, there exists a deterministic function, which
is called a sample function or a realization.

Random process …
• Strictly stationary: If none of the statistics of the random process are
affected by a shift in the time origin.

• Ideal filters:
Non-causal!
Low-pass
Band-pass High-pass
• Realizable filters:
RC filters Butterworth filter

Bandwidth of signal
• Baseband versus bandpass:
Baseband Bandpass
signal signal
Local oscillator
• Bandwidth dilemma:
• Bandlimited signals are not realizable!
• Realizable signals have infinite bandwidth!
Slide 18
Bandwidth of signal …
• Different definition of bandwidth:
a) Half-power bandwidth d) Fractional power containment bandwidth
b) Noise equivalent bandwidth e) Bounded power spectral density
c) Null-to-null bandwidth f) Absolute bandwidth
