Uncorrelated Noise: External
• Atmospheric noise
– Naturally occurring electrical disturbances
– Originate within earth’s atmosphere
– Examples?
• Extraterrestrial noise
– Signals that originate outside earth’s atmosphere
– Sub-categories
• Solar noise
– Generated by sun’s heat
– Sun spot activity follows a cyclic pattern
• Cosmic noise
– From sources distributed throughout galaxies
– Noise intensity relatively small because of distance
• Man-made noise
– Noise produced by man
– Examples?
– RFI, Impulse noise, power lines
– Reduction?

Impulse Noise
• High amplitude peaks of short duration in total noise
spectrum
• Sudden bursts of irregularly shaped pulses
• Duration s to fraction of a ms
• Sharp popping or cracking sound on voice channels
• Mutual induction and EMR
• Sources
– Relays and solenoids
– Electric motors
– Fluorescent lights
– Power lines
– Ignition systems

Example

White Noise
• Thermal noise equally distributed throughout frequency
spectrum
• Thermal noise source sometime called a white noise
source
– rms noise power measured at any frequency is the same as that at
any other frequency from same noise source
– rms noise power measured in any fixed bandwidth is equal to
total noise power measured in an equal bandwidth anywhere else
in total noise spectrum
