Concepts Data rate Channel capacity Signal Bandwidth Channel Bandwidth Noise Error rate
Bandwidth limited channel Hartley’s law CChannel capacity (bit/s) MDiscrete Levels BChannel bandwidth (Hz)
Bandwidth limited and noisy channel Shannon’s law CChannel capacity (bit/s) SNR=P/NSignal to Noise ratio (not in dB!) BChannel bandwidth (Hz)
Shannon’s Law
Bandwidth and Capacity
Multiplexing The signals of the different users are multiplexed at the transmitter and then transmitted as one entity. Examples of broadcast network: Radio and TV broadcast systems Downlinks in a mobile cellular communication system Downlinks in a satellite communication system
Multiple Access Examples of Multiple Access systems: Uplink in a mobile cellular system Uplink in a satellite communication system
Multiplexing/ Multiple Access Frequency division multiplexing (multiple access) (FDM/FDMA) –Channel bandwidth greater than signal bandwidth Time division multiplexing (multiple access) (TDM/TDMA) –Channel capacity greater than signal data rate
FDM/TDM
Frequency divison multiplexing Guard band Signal bandwidth |H(f)| f
Time divison multiplexing Bit interleaving Block interleaving Synchronous TDM –Time slots fixed and pre-assigned to sources Asynchronous TDM –Time given to sources with data to send
