Consider a binary digital communication system with equally likely $$0’s$$ and $$1’s$$. When binary $$0$$ is transmitted the voltage at the detector input can lie between the levels $$-0.25V$$ and $$+0.25V$$ with equal probability when binary $$1$$ is transmitted, the voltage at the detector can have any value between $$0$$and $$1 V$$ with equal probability. If the detector has a threshold of $$2.0V$$ (i.e., if the received signal is greater than $$0.2 V$$, the bit is taken as $$1$$), the average bit error probability is
A
$$0.15$$
B
$$0.2$$
C
$$0.05$$
D
$$0.5$$

A source produces binary data at the rate of 10 kbps. The binary symbols are represented as shown in fig. GATE ECE 2004 Communications - Digital Communication Systems Question 34 English 1 GATE ECE 2004 Communications - Digital Communication Systems Question 34 English 2 The source output is transmitted using two modulation schemes, namely Binary PSK (BPSK) and Quadrature PSK (QPSK). Let $${B_1}$$ and $${B_2}$$ be the bandwidth requirements of BPSK and QPSK respectively. Assuming that the bandwidth of the above rectangular pulses is 10 kHz, $${B_1}$$ and $${B_2}$$ are
A
$${B_1}$$ = 20 KHz, $${B_2}$$ = 20 KHz
B
$${B_1}$$ = 10 KHz, $${B_2}$$ = 20 KHz
C
$${B_1}$$ = 20 KHz, $${B_2}$$ = 10 KHz
D
$${B_1}$$ = 10 KHz, $${B_2}$$ = 10 KHz
