5. Signal element versus data element

6. Data Rate Vs. Signal Rate Data rate: the number of data elements (bits) sent in 1s (bps). It’s also called the bit rate Signal rate: the number of signal elements sent in 1s (baud). It’s also called the pulse rate, the modulation rate, or the baud rate. We wish to: –increase the data rate (increase the speed of transmission) –decrease the signal rate (decrease the bandwidth requirement) –worst case, best case, and average case of r –N bit rate –c is a constant that depends on different line codes. –S = c * N / r baud

7. Example A signal is carrying data in which one data element is encoded as one signal element ( r = 1). If the bit rate is 100 kbps, what is the average value of the baud rate if c is between 0 and 1? Solution –We assume that the average value of c is 1/2. The baud rate is then Although the actual bandwidth of a digital signal is infinite, the effective bandwidth is finite. What is the relationship between baud rate, bit rate, and the required bandwidth?

8. Self-synchronization Receiver Setting the clock matching the sender’s Effect of lack of synchronization

9. Example In a digital transmission, the receiver clock is 0.1 percent faster than the sender clock. How many extra bits per second does the receiver receive if the data rate is 1 kbps? How many if the data rate is 1 Mbps? Solution –At 1 kbps, the receiver receives 1001 bps instead of 1000 bps. –At 1 Mbps, the receiver receives 1,001,000 bps instead of 1,000,000 bps.

11. Line coding schemes

12. Unipolar NRZ scheme

13. Polar NRZ-L and NRZ-I schemes In NRZ-L, the level of the voltage determines the value of the bit. RS232. In NRZ-I, the inversion or the lack of inversion determines the value of the bit. USB, Compact CD, and Fast-Ethernet. NRZ-L and NRZ-I both have an average signal rate of N/2 Bd. NRZ-L and NRZ-I both have a DC component problem.

14. Example A system is using NRZ-I to transfer 1-Mbps data. What are the average signal rate and minimum bandwidth? Solution –The average signal rate is S = N/2 = 500 kbaud. The minimum bandwidth for this average baud rate is Bmin = S = 500 kHz.

15. RZ scheme Return to zero Self clocking

16. Polar biphase: Manchester and differential Manchester schemes In Manchester and differential Manchester encoding, the transition at the middle of the bit is used for synchronization. The minimum bandwidth of Manchester and differential Manchester is 2 times that of NRZ. 802.3 token bus and 802.4 Ethernet

17. Bipolar schemes: AMI and pseudoternary In bipolar encoding, we use three levels: positive, zero, and negative. Pseudoternary: –1 represented by absence of line signal –0 represented by alternating positive and negative DS1, E1

18. HDB3 (High Density Bipolar of order 3 code) Replacing series of four bits that are to equal to "0" with a code word "000V" or "B00V", where "V" is a pulse that violates the AMI law of alternate polarity and is rectangular or some other shape. The rules for using "000V" or "B00V" are as follows: –"B00V" is used when up to the previous pulse, the coded signal presents a DC component that is not null (the number of positive pulses is not compensated for by the number of negative pulses). –"000V" is used under the same conditions as above when up to the previous pulse the DC component is null. –The pulse "B" ("B" for balancing), which respects the AMI alternancy rule, has positive or negative polarity, ensuring that two successive V pulses will have different polarity. Used in E1

19. HDB3 The timing information is preserved by embedding it in the line signal even when long sequences of zeros are transmitted, which allows the clock to be recovered properly on reception. The DC component of a signal that is coded in HDB3 is null.

20. Bipolar 8-Zero Substitution (B8ZS) Adds synchronization for long strings of 0s North American system Same working principle as AMI except for eight consecutive 0s Evaluation –Adds synchronization without changing the DC balance –Error detection possible Used in T1/DS1 Amplitude Time 0 0000000 101 Violation 10000000001  +000+-0-+01 in general 00000000  000V(-V)0(-V)V

21. Coded Mark Inversion (CMI) Another modification from AMI: Binary 0 is represented by a half period of negative voltage followed by a half period of positive voltage Advantages: –good clock recovery and no d.c. offset –simple circuitry for encoder and decoder  compared with HDB3 Disadvantages: high bandwidth

22. Multilevel: 2B1Q scheme Integrated Services Digital Network ISDN

23. mBnL schemes In mBnL schemes, a pattern of m data elements is encoded as a pattern of n signal elements in which 2^m ≤ L^n. Multilevel: 8B6T scheme, T4

27. PSD of various line codes Details in next class

28. Clock Recovery A timing reference signal can be extracted from the received signal by differentiation and full-wave rectification  provided that the signal carries sufficient transitions. This timing reference signal is then used to fine tune the frequency and phase of a local oscillator. The receiver clock is then derived (e.g. add a phase shift) from this local oscillator.
