2 3 / 2 -- Communicaion Neworks II (Görg) Sochasic and Markovian Processes (SP & MP) X is a Random Variable ou of he characerisic domain ; is in he se of numbers I; { X, I } is called a Sochasic or Random Process. Example: = ime a) I = IN (se of naural numbers): {X} is a Sochasic Process wih discree ime. b) I = IR (se of real numbers): {X} is a Sochasic Process wih coninuous ime. A process can be described by using is sae funcion (Muserfunkion): A process can be described by using is sae funcion (Muserfunkion): I gives he variaion of values of {X} over he ime.
