ELECTRICAL ELECTRONICS COMMUNICATION INSTRUMENTATION
What is Noise ?
Desired Signal : The one that is needed.
Undesired Signal : The one that gets added to
the desired signal when the desired signal is
passing through the medium, amplifiers, mixers,
filters and other parts of the communication
channel between the source and the destination.
Noise : The undesired signal that adds to the
desired signal and reaches the destination.
Interference: Intentional or
unintentional un desired signals
that interfere with communication
process.
Effect of Noise : Since the noise
adds to the signal, it lives with it.
Neither amplification nor the
filtering can alleviate the effect of
noise on the desired signal.
The only way to keep away from
the effects of noise is to see that
less amount of noise, relative to
the desired signal, is present at
the destination

Atmospheric : Due to
lightening & Thunder storms :

2MHz 10 MHz


Extra Terrestrial : Due to solar &
Galactic sources

20 MHz- 1.5 GHz

Man Made Noise : Spark Plugs,
engine Noise

1 MHz 500 MHz


Internally Generated

Thermal noise : Random Motion
of electrons due to temperature
in resistive components of the
system

Shot Noise : Due to diffusion
of carriers in semiconductors
etc.
Most of the discussion in our class will
be on Thermal Noise

Thermal Noise
Thermal noise is an inevitable reality with
which the received signal power has to
compete
Additive White Gaussian Noise.
Thermal Noise is AWGN
Additive : Adds to Signal
White : Its power spectral density is flat
Gaussian : The underlying probability
density function is Gaussian
We talk about the probability density
function because, noise is random and
hence to be dealt with properties of
random variables.
Gaussian or Normal probability
density function
Cumulative distribution function

Statistical Averages of Random Variable
For a Continuous RV case, the mean is
Mean of a function (y = g(x)) of a random
variable
Mean square of a random variable: use
g(x) = x

Moments of a random variable:

If z = x + y
Then the pdf of z is
Central Limit Theorem: under certain conditions,
sum of large number of independent random
variables tends to be a Gaussian random variable,
independent of the pdfs of the random variables
involved.
Example: By adding 2 RVs, with
density function as in the figure,
the density function of the
resulting RV is

variable.
Ex: Binary waveform generator, say
over 10 pulse durations
A random variable that is a function of
time is called a random process.
