Question 1 (20 pts)

An M-ary PAM baseband transmission at the data rate of 960 Kbit/s is to be transmitted by means of Nyquist’s first
criterion pulses with roll-off factor r = 0.2. The channel available for transmission of this data has a bandwidth of 120
kHz. Determine the minimum value of M suitable for this transmission.

expressions.

𝑃(𝑌 = 0|𝑋 = 1) = 0.1

matched filter at the receiver. The pulse shape used at the transmitter side has the form,
𝑇𝑏
𝑝(𝑡) = 𝐴𝑢(𝑡) − 𝐴𝑢(𝑡 − ) 0 ≤ 𝑡 ≤𝑇𝑏

where 𝑢(𝑡) is the unit step signal and 𝑇𝑏 is the bit period. In order to transmit bit 1, we use 𝑝(𝑡), on the other hand
𝑇𝑏
in order to transmit bit 0 we use 𝑞(𝑡) = 𝑝 (𝑡 − ).
