hello, i am enrolled in a digital communications class and i need some help understanding how basis functions are derived for a set of orthogonal signals. the book we are using for the class is "Digital Communications", 5th Edition by John Proakis and Massoud Salehi.

Any two (or more) signals can be basis functions if they are orthogonal. (0,1) and (1,0) vectors are orthogonal and we use them to take a line and create its x and y projections. This is the Cartesian system.
In communications, we use sine and cosines as the basis functions. Just think of them as the x and y axes.
