Question #190328

For a certain binary communication channel, the probability a transmitted ‘0’ bit is received as a ‘0’ bit is 0.95 and for ‘1’ bit, it is 0.90. The probability that ‘0’ bit is transmitted is 0.4, Find

Let AA be the event of transmitting '1' and Aˉ\bar{A} be the event of transmitting '0'.


and BB be the event of receiving '1" and Bˉ\bar{B} be the event of receiving '0'.


a. Probability that ‘1’ bit is received-


P(B)=P(A)P(BA)+P(Aˉ)P(BAˉ)P(B)=P(A)P(\dfrac{B}{A})+P(\bar{A})P(\dfrac{B}{\bar{A}})

=0.9×(10.4)+0.4×(10.95)=0.6×0.9+0.4×0.05=0.56= 0.9\times (1-0.4)+0.4\times (1-0.95)\\[9pt]=0.6\times 0.9+0.4\times 0.05=0.56
