Lecture 16 Random Signals and Noise (III) Fall 2008 NCTU EE Tzu-Hsien Sang 1 1 1 1
Outline • Terminology of Random Processes • Correlation and Power Spectral Density • Linear Systems and Random Processes • Narrowband Noise
Linear Systems and Random Processes • Without memory: a random variable a random variable • With memory: correlated outputs • Now, we study the statistics between inputs and outputs, e.g., my(t), Ry(), … • Assume X(t) stationary (or WSS at least) H() is LTI. 3 3

Gaussian Random Process: X(t) has joint Gaussian pdf (of all orders). • Special Case 1: Stationary Gaussian random process Mean = mx; auto-correlation = RX(). • Special Case 2: White Gaussian random process RX(t1,t2) = (t1-t2) = () andSX(f) = 1 (constant). 6 6

Properties of Gaussian Processes (1) X(t) Gaussian, H() stable, linear Y(t) Gaussian. (2) X(t) Gaussian and WSS X(t) is SSS. (3) Samples of a Gaussian process, X(t1), X(t2), …, are uncorrelated They are independent. (4) Samples of a Gaussian process, X(t1), X(t2), …, have a joint Gaussian pdf specified completely by the set of means and auto-covariance function . • Remarks: Why do we use Gaussian model? • Easy to analyze. • Central Limit Theorem: Many “independent” events combined together become a Gaussian random variable ( random process ). 8
Noise equivalent Bandwidth It is just a way to describe a band-limited noise with the bandwidth of an ideal band-pass filter. 11
Narrowband Noise • Q: Besides certain statistics, is there a more “waveform-oriented” approach to describe a noise (or random signal)? 12
