SUMMARY

The discussion centers on calculating the probability that a receiver cannot distinguish between two signals received at arbitrary time intervals T. The established formula for this probability is P = n/m, where n represents the indistinguishable interval (0.1T) and m represents the total possible intervals (T). The resulting probability is P = 0.1, indicating that there is a 10% chance the receiver will not distinguish the signals. This solution is confirmed as correct based on the provided parameters.

Homework Statement


In moments of arbitrary time interval T, receiver catches the two signals, by
one in each moment. Signals can not distinguish if the differences in time
between the signal reception is less than t = 0.1T. Determine the probability that the receiver
does not distinguish signals.

Homework Equations



P=\frac{n}{m}

The Attempt at a Solution



n = 0.1T - interval in which recevier can't distinguish to signals

m = T - total possible intervals, in which receiver can catch signals is TP = \frac{0.1T}{T} =0.1

But, it seems too simple to me ! Is that solution OK, or ... ?
