ERROR PROBABILITY IN BFSK
Earlier, in this chapter, we studied binary FSK transmission. Two different carrier frequencies are used to transmit two binary levels. As discussed earlier, these two signals are as follows:
Binary ‘1’  Þ   x₁(t) = A cos (_c + W) t
and Binary ‘1’     Þ     x₂(t) = A cos (_c – W) t                                    …(8.127)
The general expression for probability of error P_e is given by

The detector which maximises the ratio  =
=  is the matched filter detector.
Now, output SNR [i.e., (SNR)₀], ² can be obtained as

By Parseval’s theorem, we have

If we assume that offset angular frequency ‘W’ is quite small in comparison with the carrier angular frequency, then the last three terms of the equation (8.128) are of the following form:
The ratio approaches 0 as ₀T increases.
As ₀T > > 1, the above expression simplifies as under:

EXAMPLE 8.8. Binary data is transmitted over a microwave link at the rate of 1 Mbps and psd at the input of the receiver is 10^-7 W/Hz. Determine the average carrier power required to maintain an average probability of bit error ≤ 10^-4 for coherent FSK. What will be the channel bandwidth?
