amplifirr of the same kind would produce another noise signal, .rz ( t ) . The first
amplifier would aiso never repeat the noise 4gnaI x ~ ( t )so

with an output sigiiai calculated from i t .
Thc solution to this problc~iiis found not? by considering individual random
signals. hut instead by ttnalysiiig the procew that, procliacrs the signals. In oiir

We need to introdiicc some nrw terms to extexid our discussion to general random
signals. A process that prodrtces random sign& will be (died a randoin pmctss.
