In a fast FH spread spectrum system, the information is transmitted via FSK with non coherent detection. Suppose there are N = 3 hops/bit with hard decision decoding of the signal in each hop. The channel is AWGN with power spectral density 0.5No and an SNR 20 ~13 dB (total SNR over the three hops). The probability of error for this system is
(a) 0.013
(b) 0.0013
(c) 0.049
(d) 0.0049
This question was posed to me during an online interview.
