The unipolar non-return-to-zero (NRZ) line code and the differential Manchester code are illustrated in Fig. Q3. Both line codes are transmitted at a rate of 10 kbps over an additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) channel with a single-sided power spectral density N0 = 1.25 × 10-5 W/Hz. The amplitude of the unipolar NRZ signal varies between 0 and 2 V, while the amplitude of the differential Manchester code varies between -1 V and 1 V. Assume that 0 and 1 have an equal probability of occurrence in a long bit sequence.
