In a base band communications link, frequencies up to 3500 Hz are used for signaling. Using a raised cosine pulse with 75% excess bandwidth and for no inter-symbol interference, the maximum possible signaling rate in symbols per second is

A binary symmetric channel (BSC) has a transition probability of 1/8. If the binary transmit symbol X is such that P(X =0) = 9/10, then the probability of error for an optimum receiver will be

The signal m(t) as shown is applied both to a phase modulator (with k_p as the phase constant) and a frequency modulator (with k_f as the frequency constant) having the same carrier frequency.

The ratio k_p/k_f (in rad/Hz) for the same maximum phase deviation is

The feedback system shown below oscillates at 2 rad/s when
