| Course Description | In this course, basic principles of probability, definition and basic theorems of probability, concept of a random variable, probability distributions, mathematical expectation, moments, some discrete and continuous distributions, transformations of a random variable, joint probability distributions, transformations of multiple random variables are discussed. Then, in the processes part of the course, the random process concept, classification of processes stationarity and independence, correlation functions, Gaussian random processes, Poisson random processes and spectral characteristics of random processes are studied. |
