The theoretical part is supported by the examples of applicable nature especially from the areas of Electrical Engineering. The course will help students to aptly deal with the problems of probability and random functions later in their engineering degree program when the study various core courses like Digital Communications, Mobile Communications etc.[/vc_column_text][vc_custom_heading text=”COURSE LEARNING OUTCOMES (CLO)” font_container=”tag:h3|text_align:left” use_theme_fonts=”yes”][vc_column_text]

CLO:1. Define theory of probability and random signals, illustrate the use of CDFs, PDFs and PMFs of continuous as well as discrete nature (Level: C1)

CLO:2. Transform given information to PMFs, PDFs and CDFs and express probability of events from statistical data. Moreover the students should be able to compare and correlate multiple random variables and evaluate if they are independent, orthogonal or correlated. (Level: C2)

CLO:3. Apply knowledge of probability to solve problems from the field of electronic, electrical and communications of applicable nature, falling in both discrete and continuous domain.  (Level: C3)
