Random Processes
• Deterministic processes :
physical process is represented by explicit
mathematical relation
• Random processes :
result of a large number of separate causes.
Described in probabilistic terms and by properties
which are averages

Ensemble and sample function
• The collection of all possible waveform is
known as Ensemble. (sample space in random
variable)
• Ergodic
