Normalized system parameters for different cutoff frequencies

We consider a redundancy-free binary transmission system with the following specifications:

  • The transmission pulses are NRZ rectangular and have energy  $E_{\rm B} = s_0^2 \cdot T$.
  • The channel is a coaxial cable with characteristic cable attenuation  $a_* = 40 \, {\rm dB}$.
  • AWGN noise with (one-sided) noise power density  $N_0 = 0.0001 \cdot E_{\rm B}$  is present.
  • The receiver frequency response  $H_{\rm E}(f)$  includes an ideal channel equalizer  $H_{\rm K}^{\rm -1}(f)$  and a Gaussian low-pass filter  $H_{\rm G}(f)$  with cutoff frequency  $f_{\rm G}$  for noise power limitation.


The table shows the eye opening   $\ddot{o}(T_{\rm D})$   as well as the detection noise rms value   $\sigma_{\rm d}$   – each normalized to the transmitted amplitude  $s_0$  – for different cutoff frequencies  $f_{\rm G}$.  The cutoff frequency is to be chosen such that the worst-case error probability is as small as possible,  with the following definition:

$$p_{\rm U} = {\rm Q} \left( \frac{\ddot{o}(T_{\rm D})/2}{ \sigma_d} \right) \hspace{0.3cm}\Rightarrow \hspace{0.3cm} p_{\rm U} = {\rm Q} \left( \sqrt{\rho_{\rm U}}\right)$$
  • This quantity represents an upper bound for the mean error probability   $p_{\rm S} \le p_{\rm U}$.
  • For  $f_{\rm G} \cdot T ≥ 0.4$,  a lower bound can also be given:   $p_{\rm S} \ge p_{\rm U}/4$.

$\ \cdot 10^{\rm -6}$


Solution

(1)  For the optimization it is sufficient to maximize the quotient  $\ddot{o}(T_{\rm D})/\sigma_d$:

  • This is maximized from the values given in the table for the cutoff frequency  $f_{\rm G, opt} \cdot T \underline {= 0.4}$  with  $0.735/0.197 \approx 3.73$.
  • As a comparison:   For  $f_{\rm G} \cdot T = 0.3$  the result is  $0.192/0.094 \approx 2.04$  due to the smaller eye opening.
  • For  $f_{\rm G} \cdot T = 0.5$  the quotient is also smaller than for the optimum:  $1.159/0.379 \approx 3.05$.
  • An even larger cutoff frequency leads to a very large noise rms value without simultaneously increasing the vertical eye opening in the same way.


(2)  Using the result from  (1),  we further obtain:

$$\rho_{\rm U} = \left ( {3.73}/{2} \right )^2 \approx 3.48 \hspace{0.3cm}\Rightarrow \hspace{0.3cm} 10 \cdot {\rm lg}\hspace{0.1cm}\rho_{\rm U} \hspace{0.15cm}\underline { = 5.41\,{\rm dB}}\hspace{0.3cm} \Rightarrow \hspace{0.3cm} p_{\rm U} = {\rm Q}\left ( {3.73}/{2} \right) \hspace{0.15cm}\underline {\approx 0.031} \hspace{0.05cm}.$$


(3)  With the given  $10 \cdot {\rm lg} \, E_{\rm B}/N_0 = 40 \ \rm dB$,  i.e. $E_{\rm B}/N_0 = 10^4$,  the worst-case signal-to-noise ratio has been found to be  $10 \cdot {\rm lg} \, \rho_{\rm U} \approx 5.41 \, {\rm dB}$.

  • However,  for the worst-case error probability  $p_{\rm U} = 10^{\rm -6}$   ⇒   $10 \cdot {\rm lg} \, \rho_{\rm U} > 13.55 \, {\rm dB}$  must be obtained.
  • This is achieved by increasing the quotient  $E_{\rm B}/N_0$  accordingly:
$$10 \cdot {\rm lg}\hspace{0.1cm}{E_{\rm B}}/{N_0} = 40\,{\rm dB} \hspace{0.1cm}+\hspace{0.1cm}13.55\,{\rm dB} \hspace{0.1cm}-\hspace{0.1cm}5.41\,{\rm dB}= 48.14\,{\rm dB}\hspace{0.3cm} \Rightarrow \hspace{0.3cm} {E_{\rm B}}/{N_0} = 10^{4.814}\approx 65163 \hspace{0.3cm}\Rightarrow \hspace{0.3cm} {N_0}/{E_{\rm B}}\hspace{0.15cm}\underline { = 1.53 \cdot 10^{-5}} \hspace{0.05cm}.$$


(4) 

  • The upper bound  for $p_{\rm S}$  is equal to the worst-case error probability  $p_{\rm U} = \underline {10^{\rm -6}}$.
  • The lower bound is  $\underline {0.25 \cdot 10^{\rm -6}}$,  which is smaller by a factor of  $4$.
