4. Given a channel with an intended capacity of 20 Mbps, the bandwidth of the channel is 3 MHz. Assuming white thermal noise, what signal- to- noise ratio is required to achieve this capacity?
5. If the received signal level for a particular digital system is -151dBw and the receiver system effective noise temperature is 1500 K, what is Eb/No for a link transmitting 2400 bps?
Solution
4.Channel Capacity=bandwidth*log2(1+SNR)
20 Mbps=3 MHz*log2(1+SNR)
log2(1+SNR)=3/20=6.667
SNR=26.667-1
SNR=100.6
5. Eb/N0=151+10log(1500)+10log(2400)
Eb/N0=12dBw
