Noise
• Noise refers to unwanted interference that tends to
obscure the information bearing signal
• Noise can be classified into two categories:
– Man-made Noise introduced by switching transients and simultaneous
presence of neighboring signals
– Natural Noise produced by the atmosphere and heating up of electrical
components. The latter is referred to as the Thermal noise
Additive Gaussian Noise
• Thermal noise is difficult to be eliminated and often modeled by the
Gaussian probability density function
• Additive Gaussian Noise: refers to the following model for
introduction of noise in the signal
• Given that the noise n is a Gaussian RV and a is the dc component,
which is constant, the pdf of z is given by
Additive Gaussian Noise
Distribution
• The normalized or standardized Gaussian density
function of a zero-mean process is obtained by
assuming unit variance.
Additive White Gaussian Noise
• The primary spectral characteristic of thermal noise is that its power
spectral density is the same for all frequencies of interest in most
communication systems
• Power spectral density Sn(w )
