Hello. This may not be the right place to post, so apologies.
I am stuck on how to begin with the following problem on continuous time Gaussian processes. How do approach the integrals? I do know that W(t) has a constant PSD which would mean the autocorrelation function is a delta function. In the frequency domain, g(t) and h(t) would become sinc functions.

An initial attempt I've done (although mostly likely wrong)

Since the PSD is constant, I believe [imath]W(t)[/imath] is simply a delta function [imath]\delta (t)[/imath] by taking the inverse Fourier transform of 1.

[imath] X=\displaystyle\int_0^1 g(t)W(t)dt[/imath] = [imath] \displaystyle\int_0^1 g(t)\delta (t)dt[/imath] = [imath]g(0) = 1[/imath] (hopefully I can use the sifting property of the delta function)

[imath] Y=\displaystyle\int_0^1 h(t)W(t)dt + \displaystyle\int_1^2 h(t)W(t)dt [/imath] = [imath] \displaystyle\int_0^1 h(t)\delta (t)dt + \displaystyle\int_1^2 h(t)\delta (t)dt = 1+1=2[/imath]

So, to calculate the correlation coefficient I would use the formula below, but now I need the variances. Do I use [imath] Var(X) = E(X^2) - (E(X))^2 [/imath]?
