So, the minimum value of T is 9 ms.
(e) Since it takes T = 9 × 10−3 seconds to transmit one bit, we can
1
transmit a maximum of bits every second. So, the data rate is
T
about R = 111 bits per second.

So, the minimum value of A is 9.6 × 10−2 Volts.
(e) The average power of the transmitter is defined as Power = Eb /T .
The minimum transmitter power is therefore

So, the minimum transmitter power is 9 mW.

3. (a) The energy E1 in the signal s1 (t) is determined as:

Similarly, it can be shown that E2 = 13. The average energy Eb


per bit is hence also equal to 13.

(b) The system bandwidth is given to be W = 2.4 kHz. Since we have

W = (1 + r)Rs ,
2
we get the roll-off factor r = 0.5.
