10. 10 The Real Aim “If the information that you want to send is your voice, how to make sure that what you are saying is understood by your friend?” Basic Parts of a Communication System

11. Basic Communication System 11 Transmitter Transmission Medium Receiver Input Transducer Output Transducer Noise wired / wireless m tx (t) s(t)s(t)r(t)r(t) p tx (t) n(t)n(t) m rx (t)p rx (t) s(t) – Input signal; audio, video, image, data etc. m tx (t) – Modulating signal; input signal that has been converted to electrical signal. p tx (t) – Modulated signal transmit by the transmitter. n(t) – Noise signal. p rx (t) – Modulated signal receive by the receiver. m rx (t) – Modulating signal at the receiver. r(t) – Output signal.

12. Component Function in Basic Communication System 12 Input Transducer – convert input signal, s(t) in electrical forms. eg: microphone. Transmitter – involve modulation process – convert modulating signal, m tx (t) to modulated signal, p tx (t). And finally transmit the signal. Transmission medium – connecting the transmitter and the receiver that enable the modulated signal, p tx (t) propagate through the medium. Receiver – receive the modulated signal, p rx (t) and then convert the signal to modulating signal, m rx (t) through the process called demodulation. Output Transducer – convert the modulating signal, m rx (t) to its original forms (output signal), r(t) that is useful to the users. eg: loud speaker.

15. Physical Transmission Media 100 Mbps is how many bits per sec? Which is bigger: 10,000 Mbps, 0.01Tbps or 10Gbps? Wireless channel capacity:

16. Concept of Time Domain and Frequency Domain All signals exist in real world in time domain Oscilloscopes shows signals as a function of time But it is yet again the representation of data as a function of time We can view the same information as a function of some other variable which may have a useful meaning In analysis composite signals are hard to analyze Hence we use frequency domain

17. WHAT IS FREQUENCY SPECTRUM IT CONSISTS OF ALL FREQUENCIES CONTAINED IN THE WAVEFORM AND THEIR RESPECTIVE AMPLITUDE IN THE FREQUENCY DOMAIN. 17

18. Time vs Frequency domain

19. Another Look Time Domain Sine wave viewed as an impulse function in frequency domain

20. Spectrum Analyzer

21. Oscilloscope vs Spectrum Analyzer

22. Frequency Spectrum 22

23. Concept of Bandwidth IT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE HIGHEST FREQUENCIES AND THE LOWEST FREQUENCIES OF THE INPUT SIGNAL FREQUENCIES (f B = 2f m ).  The bandwidth of a communication signal  bandwidth of the information signal. 23

24. Data (nonelectrical) Electrical Waveform Without any shift in the range of frequencies of the signal The signal is in its original form, not changed by modulation. Baseband is the original information that is to be Sent. It starts from zero and to some specific frequency WHAT IS BASEBAND SIGNAL ?

25. WHAT IS PASSBAND SIGNAL ? After modulation, the original baseband signal is moved to a range of frequency which far more higher than the baseband signal So it’s a range of frequency shifted after modulation

26. What is Modulation MODULATION IS THE PROCESS OF CHANGING SOME PROPERTYOF THE INFORMATION SOURCES INTO SUITABLE FORM FOR TRANSMISSION THROUGH THE PHISICAL MEDIUM/CHANNEL “Process of coverting baseband signal into passband signal is called modulation” It is performed in the Transmitter by a device called Modulator. 26

29. TYPE OF MODULATION Amplitude Modulation (AM) Frequency Modulation (FM) Phase Modulation (PM) 29

30. TYPE OF MODULATION 30

31. Need for Modulation Channel assignment (various information sources are not always suitable for direct transmission over a given channel) Efficient Utilization of bandwidth and multiplexing Reduce noise &interference Reduction in antenna size 31

32. What is Demodulation DEMODULATION IS THE REVERSE PROCESS OF MODULATION BY CONVERTING THE MODULATED INFORMATION SOURCES BACK TO ITS ORIGINAL INFORMATION (IT REMOVES THE INFORMATION FROM THE CARRIER SIGNAL). It is performed in the Receiver by a device called Demodulator. 32

33. Example If human voice frequencies contain signals between 300 Hz and 3000 Hz, a voice frequency channel should have bandwidth equal or greater than 2700 Hz.  a communication channel cannot propagate a signal that contains a frequency that is changing at a rate greater than the Channel Bandwidth. 33

39. Trigonometric Fourier Series A signal g(t) in the interval t 1  t  t 1 +T 0 can be represented by T 0 = 2  /  0

40. Reduced Form of Trigonometric Fourier Series Or, in the compact form If g(t) is even then b n = 0 for all n If g(t) is odd then a n =0 for all n. C 0 = a 0 ;

41. Remarks on Fourier Series (FS) Representations  The frequency  0 = 2  /T 0 is called the fundamental frequency and the multiple of this frequency n  0 is called the nth harmonic.  FS of g(t) is equal to g(t) over the interval t 1  t  t 1 +T 0 only.  The FS for all t is a periodic function of period T 0 in which the segment of g(t) over the interval t 1  t  t 1 +T 0 repeats periodically.  If the function g(t) itself is periodic with period T 0 then the FS represents g(t) for all t.

42. Exponential Fourier Series D n is related to C n and  n as | D n |is called the amplitude spectrum of the signal.  D n is called the phase spectrum of the signal. They provide a frequency-domain representation of the signal.
