Consider a real-valued random process
where
and
is a positive integer. Here,
for
and 0 otherwise. The coefficients
are pairwise independent, zero-mean unit variance random variables.
Read the following statements about the random process and choose the correct option.
(i) The mean of the process
is independent of time
.
(ii) The autocorrelation function
is independent of time
for all
.
(Here,
is the expectation operation.)
(i) is TRUE and (ii) is FALSE
Both (i) and (ii) are TRUE
Both (i) and (ii) are FALSE
(i) is FALSE and (ii) is TRUE
are independent
Given:
constant
(i) is correct
Auto correlation

We can’t comment on ACF of
however looking at (as no time data given)
we solve 
dependence on
is asked, lets fix
for all z
as
for
to
:

Clearly
is a function 
(ii) is false
