- Probability and statistics: random variables, probability density function, probability distribution function, mean, variance. Gaussian and uniform distributions. Stochastic processes: autocorrelation, crosscorrelation, stationarity, power spectral density.
- Communications: bit rate, baud rate, carrier frequency, PAM and QAM modulation. |
