Question:

18. Let X denote the voltage at the output of a microphone, and suppose that X has a uniform distribution on the interval from 1 to 1. The voltage is processed by a “hard limiter”

with cutoff values .5 and .5, so the limiter output is a random variable Y related to X by Y  X if |X|  .5, Y  .5 if X .5, and Y  .5 if X  .5.

a. What is P(Y  .5)?

b. Obtain the cumulative distribution function of Y and graph it.
