Problem Set1

This document contains 5 problems related to digital communication systems. Problem 1 involves determining an orthonormal basis and constellation for 4 signal waveforms using Gram-Schmidt orthogonalization and inspection. Problem 2 asks about the minimum number of basis functions needed to represent the 4 signals. Problem 3 involves showing orthonormality of 3 waveforms and expressing another waveform as a linear combination. Problem 4 sketches a signal constellation for a binary system using 2 waveforms. Problem 5 sketches the optimal decision region for a constellation transmitted over an AWGN channel.

EE611 Problem Set 1

1. The following four waveforms are used for signaling in a digital communication system: (rect(t) = 1 for 0 t < 1 and zero elsewhere) s0 (t) = rect(t) + rect(t 2) s1 (t) = rect(t 1) + rect(t 3) s2 (t) = rect(t 1) + rect(t 2) s3 (t) = rect(t 1) rect(t 3) (i) Determine an orthonormal basis and the corresponding constellation in two ways: (a) by using Gram-Schmidt Orthogonalisation starting with s0 (t) and going in sequence, and (b) by inspection of the waveforms without any computations. (ii) Verify that one constellation can be obtained from the other simply by rotation. (iii) What is the distance of each point si from the origin? Is it the same in both constellations? Why? How do the distances between s0 , s1 , s2 and s3 compare in either case? 2. (Wozencraft & Jacobs pp. 269-273:) What is the minimum number of orthonormal basis functions required to represent the four signal waveforms in Figure 1?

Figure 2: 3. Consider the three waveforms fn (t) shown in Figure 2. (a) Show that these waveforms are orthonormal. (b) Express the waveform x(t) as a weighted linear combination of fn (t), n = 1, 2, 3, if 3 2 x(t) = 1 0

and determine the weighting coecients.

4. A binary communication system uses the two waveforms shown in Figure 3 for signalling. Sketch a signal constellation representation of the signals.
