This textbook provides a straightforward, clear explanation of probability and random variables for communications engineering students. The author focuses on the most essential subjects of probability and random variables, eliminating unnecessary details of this difficult subject. After an introduction to the topic, the author covers the essentials of experiments, sample spaces, events, and probability laws, while investigating how they relate to communications engineering work. He goes on to discuss total probability theorems, after which he covers discrete random variables and continuous random variables. The author uses his years of teaching probability and random variable concepts to engineering students to form the text in a very understandable manner. The book features exercises, examples, case studies, and other key classroom materials
