    Digital Communications Questions and Answers – Random Signals

    This set of Digital Communications Multiple Choice Questions & Answers (MCQs)
    focuses on “Random signals”.

    1. Random variables give relationship between _____


    a) Two random events
    b) Probability of occurence of two random events
    c) Random event and a real number
    d) Random event and its probability of occurrence
    View Answer

    Answer: c
    Explanation: A random variable gives a functional relationship between a random
    event and a real number.

    2. The distribution function of random variable is


    a) P(X less than or equal to x)
    b) P(X greater than or equal to x)
    c) P(X less than x)
    d) P(X greater than x)
    View Answer

    Answer: a
    Explanation: The distribution function of a random variable is the probability that
    the value taken by the random variable is less than or equal to the real number x.
    3. The distribution function of -(infinity) and (infinity) is _____
    a) 0 and 1
    b) 1 and 0
    c) Both 0
    d) Both 1
    View Answer

    Answer: a
    Explanation: F(minus infinity) is 0 and F(infinity) is 1.
    4. The value of the probability density function of random variable is
    a) Positive function
    b) Negative function
    c) Zero
    d) One
    View Answer

    Answer: a
    Explanation: The probability density function is always greater than 0. It is a non
    negative function with the area of 1.
    5. Which gives the measure of randomness of the random variable?
    a) Mean
    b) Variance
    c) Standard variance
    d) Pdf
    View Answer

    Answer: b
    Explanation: Variance gives the randomness of the random variable. It is the
    difference between the mean square value and square of the mean.

    6. Random process is a function of ______


    a) Random event and time
    b) Random event and frequency
    c) Random event and real number
    d) None of the mentioned
    View Answer

    Answer: a
    Explanation: Random process is a function of two variables: a random event and its
    time of occurrence.
    7. A random process is called as stationary in strict sense if
    a) Its statistics vary with shift in time origin
    b) Its statistics does not vary with shift in time origin
    c) Its autocorrelation vary with shift in time
    d) Its autocorrelation does not vary with shift in time
    View Answer

    Answer: a
    Explanation: A random process is defined to be stationary in a strict sense if its
    statistics varies with a shift in time origin.
    8. For a stationary process, autocorrelation function depends on
    a) Time
    b) Time difference
    c) Does not depend on time
    d) None of the mentioned
    View Answer

    Answer: b
    Explanation: Autocorrelation function depends on the time difference between t1 and
    t2.
    9. The autocorrelation function is maximum at
    a) Origin
    b) Infinity
    c) Origin & Infinity
    d) None of the mentioned
    View Answer

    Answer: a
    Explanation: On substituting different values in the formula for autocorrelation
    function it wil be maximum at the origin.
    10. Standard deviation is ______
    a) Rms value of dc
    b) Rms value or ac
    c) Either ac or dc
    d) Neither dc nor ac
    View Answer

    Answer: b
    Explanation: The standard deviation of a random variable gives the rms value of an
    ac component.

    11. The average power of white noise is


    a) Zero
    b) Unity
    c) Infinity
    d) Between zero and one
    View Answer

    Answer: c

    infinite.
    12. White noise has _____ mean and ______ variance.
    a) Zero and zero
    b) Finite and zero
    c) Zero and finite
    d) One and zero
