Determine the differential entropy


Solve the following problem:

Determine the differential entropy H(X) of the uniformly distributed random variable X with PDF

p(x) = {a-1       0≤x≤a
          {0         otherwise

for the following three cases:

1. a = 1

2. a = 4

3. a = 1 4

Observe from these results that H(X) is not an absolute measure, but only a relative measure of randomness.
