A random variable X takes −1 and +1 with probabilities 0.2 and 0.8, respectively. It is transmitted across a channel which adds noise N, so that the random variable at the channel output is Y=X+N. The noise n is independent of X, and is uniformly distributed over the interval [−2,2]. The receiver makes a decision
