SEVENTH SEMESTER B.Tech. (E & C) DEGREE END SEMESTER EXAMINATION


NOV 2017
SUBJECT: WIRELESS COMMUNICATION (ECE - 405)

TIME: 3 HOURS MAX. MARKS: 50


Instructions to candidates
 Answer ANY FIVE questions.
 Missing data may be suitably assumed.

1A. Derive an expression for optimal power allocation and Shannon capacity of a block fading channel.
1B. Measurements through a 900 MHz sinusoidal input to a channel resulted in the following channel
scattering function; S(τ, ρ) is α1δ(τ) at ρ = 70 Hz and α2 δ(τ-0.022 μs) at ρ = 49.5 Hz. If the
transmitter and receiver are located 800 cm above the ground, (i) Estimate the velocity and distance
between the transmitter and receiver. (ii) By what factor the path loss is varying with distance‘d’
(iii) will a 30 KHz voice signal transmitted over this channel experience frequency selective or flat
fading.
(6+4)

2A. Briefly explain all types of receiver diversity techniques.


2B. For a cellular system the reference distance for the antenna far field is 100 m and the path-loss
exponent is a random variable taking on values 2, 2.5, 3 and 4 with probabilities 0.4, 0.3, 0.2 and
0.1 respectively. Assume a receiver at a distance of 1000 m from the transmitter with average
transmit power constraint of 100 mW and a receiver noise power of 1mW. (i) Assuming that both
transmitter and receiver have CSI, find the distribution of the received SNR (ii) Assuming only
receiver CSI, determine the ergodic capacity per unit bandwidth for this channel (iii) Assuming both
receiver and transmitter CSI, derive the optimal power adaptation policy for this channel and its
corresponding Shannon capacity per unit bandwidth (iv) Assuming both receiver and transmitter
CSI, determine the zero outage capacity per unit bandwidth of this channel.

3A. For a Rayleigh fading wireless channel, derive an expression for outage probability and average
probability of error for BPSK and BFSK modulation
3B. Consider a communication system, with transmitter and Receiver placed 10 m apart, is operating at
1 GHz and has a Time varying channel impulse response with N resolvable multipath components.
Show that the minimum value of the product of carrier frequency and nth delay time is very much
larger than unity. Is it true if the distance is changed to 1 m and 100 m?

at transmitter.

components of received signal is same and WSS.

5A. Derive an expression for path gain for 2-ray model. Show the power variations with respect to
distance between antennas. Also, derive an approximate expression for the distance values below
the critical distance at which nulls occur.
5B. Consider an indoor wireless LAN with fc = 1 GHz, cells of radius 100 m, and omnidirectional
antennas. For free space path loss model, what should be the transmitted power if all receivers
within the cell are to receive a minimum power of -40 dBm? Repeat your calculation for 500 m.
