### What is Assymptotic Equipartition Property?

I am currently studying about Polar Codes in 5G standard and while reading my paper I found something called AEP which is required for channel coding. I surfed the web but didn't found a satisfying ...

### Why does power spectral density of OFDM signal changes with number of zero subcarriers

I am trying to plot the power spectral density (PSD) of an OFDM signal with $N_{dsc}$ subcarriers and $N_{zeros} = N_{fft}-N_{dsc}$ zero subcarriers. I am using the matlab function pwelch() to plot ...

### phase shift for a spreading signal

For a chirp spread spectrum with $2$ users, I can use an up-chirp and down-chirp for the spreading signals. This is my questions: 1) These $2$ signals have a phase shift. If my $2$ users are at ...

### BER vs Eb/N0 (db) Curve

So, I was trying to plot BER (Bit Error Rate) vs. Eb/No (in dB) curve using Python. Here is what I get, Eb/N0 is in dB on the x-axis But I know that this is not the correct graph. Here is my code. ...

### Beamforming back lobes question

When performing a conventional digital beamforming I see in some textbooks they show beam patterns as where the arrival angle ranges between -90 to 90 degrees. But then other places show the full ...

### How to compute the channel gain from the path loss model of a wireless channel

I did my research but I did not get a satisfying answer. We have a transmitter and a receiver over a wireless communication channel. The channel's path loss is modeled as $128 + 37 \log_{10} (d)$, ...

### Why can the :$\mathbf W^*_{MMSE}$ be written as $E[\mathbf s \mathbf y^*]E[\mathbf y \mathbf y^*]^{-1}$

I read this paper: https://arxiv.org/pdf/1305.2460.pdf And there is a formula about MMSE:$\mathbf W^*_{MMSE}= E[\mathbf s \mathbf y^*]E[\mathbf y \mathbf y^*]^{-1}$ $\mathbf W _{BB}$:Baseband ...
