PTSP - MLRS - R22 - II - I - ECE - Syllabus

This document outlines the syllabus for the course "Probability Theory and Stochastic Processes" taken by second year B.Tech students in ECE at Marri Laxman Reddy Institute of Technology and Management. The course is designed to teach students the basic concepts of probability, random variables, distribution functions, stochastic processes, and their applications. It is divided into 5 units covering topics like probability, random variables, distribution functions, operations on random variables, multiple random variables, stochastic processes characteristics in both the temporal and spectral domains. The course objectives are to provide knowledge of probability, random variables, stochastic processes, and characterize LTI systems driven by random processes.
