12. 12 Digital Data, Digital Signal / Characteristics zDigital signal yUses discrete, discontinuous, voltage pulses yEach pulse is a signal element yBinary data is encoded into signal elements

16. 16 Comparison of Encoding Schemes (1) zSignal Spectrum yLack of high frequencies reduces required bandwidth yLack of dc component allows ac coupling via transformer, providing isolation yIt is important to concentrate power in the middle of the bandwidth zClocking issues ySynchronizing transmitter and receiver is essential yExternal clock is one way used for synchronization ySynchronizing mechanism based on signal is also used & preferred (over using an external clock)

21. 21 Nonreturn to Zero-Level (NRZ-L) zTwo different voltages for 0 and 1 bits zVoltage constant during bit interval zMost often, negative voltage for one value and positive for the other

23. 23 NRZ

24. 24 NRZ pros and cons zPros yEasy to engineer yMakes good use of bandwidth zCons ydc component yLack of synchronization capability zUsed for magnetic recording zNot often used for signal transmission

26. 26 Pseudoternary zOne represented by absence of line signal zZero represented by alternating positive and negative zNo advantage or disadvantage over bipolar-AMI

27. 27 Bipolar-AMI and Pseudoternary

28. 28 Trade Off for Multilevel Binary zNot as efficient as NRZ yWith multi-level binary coding, the line signal may take on one of 3 levels, but each signal element, which could represent log 2 3 = 1.58 bits of information, bears only one bit of information yReceiver must distinguish between three levels (+A, -A, 0) yRequires approx. 3dB more signal power for same probability of bit error

29. 29 Biphase zManchester yTransition in middle of each bit period yTransition serves as clock and data yLow to high represents one yHigh to low represents zero yUsed by IEEE 802.3 (Ethernet) zDifferential Manchester yMidbit transition is for clocking only yTransition at start of a bit period represents zero yNo transition at start of a bit period represents one yNote: this is a differential encoding scheme yUsed by IEEE 802.5 (Token Ring)

30. 30 Biphase Pros and Cons zCon yAt least one transition per bit time and possibly two yMaximum modulation rate is twice NRZ yRequires more bandwidth zPros ySynchronization on mid bit transition (self clocking) yNo dc component yError detection xAbsence of expected transition points to error in transmission

31. 31 Modulation Rate R=Data Rate=bits/sec=1 Mbps for both cases Modulation Rate=Baud Rate=Rate at which signal elements are generated=R for NRZI=2R for Manchester

32. 32 Scrambling Techniques zUsed to reduce signaling rate relative to the data rate by replacing sequences that would produce constant voltage for a priod of time with a filling sequence that accomplishes the following goals: yMust produce enough transitions to maintain syncchronization yMust be recognized by receiver and replaced with original data sequence yis same length as original sequence zNo dc component zNo long sequences of zero level line signal zNo reduction in data rate zError detection capability zAs an example, fax machines use the modified Huffman code to accomplish this.

33. 33 B8ZS zBipolar With 8 Zeros Substitution zBased on bipolar-AMI zIf octet of all zeros and last voltage pulse preceding was positive, encode as 000+-0-+ zIf octet of all zeros and last voltage pulse preceding was negative, encode as 000-+0+- zCauses two violations of AMI code zThis is unlikely to occur as a result of noise zReceiver detects and interprets the sequence as octet of all zeros

34. 34 HDB3 zHigh Density Bipolar 3 Zeros zBased on bipolar-AMI zString of four zeros replaced with one or two pulses Note: The following is the explanation for the HDB3 code example on the next slide (see rules in Table 5.4, page 142): Assuming that an odd number of 1's have occurred since the last substitution, since the polarity of the preceding pulse is "-", then the first 4 zeros are replaced by "000-". For the next 4 zeros, since there have been no Bipolar pulses since the 1st substitution, then they are replaced by"+00+" since the preceding pulse is a "-". For the 3rd case where 4 zeros happen, 2 (even) Bipolar pulses have happened since the last substitution and the polarity of the preceding pulse is "+", so "-00-" is substituted for the zeros.

35. 35 B8ZS and HDB3 (Assume odd number of 1s since last substitution) See Table 5.4 for HDB3 Substitution Rules

36. 36 Digital Data, Analog Signal zTransmitting digital data through PSTN (Public telephone system) y300Hz to 3400Hz bandwidth ymodem (modulator-demodulator) is used to convert digital data to analog signal and vice versa zThree basic modulation techniques are used: zAmplitude shift keying (ASK) zFrequency shift keying (FSK) zPhase shift keying (PSK)

37. 37 Modulation Techniques

38. 38 Amplitude Shift Keying zValues represented by different amplitudes of carrier zUsually, one amplitude is zero yi.e. presence and absence of carrier is used zSusceptible to sudden gain changes zInefficient zUp to 1200bps on voice grade lines zUsed over optical fiber

43. 43 Phase Shift Keying zPhase of carrier signal is shifted to represent data zDifferential PSK yPhase shifted relative to previous transmission rather than some reference signal

45. 45 Quadrature PSK zMore efficient use by each signal element representing more than one bit ye.g. shifts of  /2 (90 o ) yEach element represents two bits yCan use 8 phase angles and have more than one amplitude y9600bps modems use 12 angles, four of which have two amplitudes

48. 48 Performance of Digital to Analog Modulation Schemes zBandwidth yASK and PSK bandwidth directly related to bit rate yFSK bandwidth related to data rate for lower frequencies yrequires more analog bandwidth than ASK y(See Stallings for math) zIn the presence of noise, bit error rate of PSK and QPSK are about 3dB superior to ASK and FSK

50. 50 Analog data, Digital signal zTwo principle techniques used yPCM (Pulse Code Modulation) yDM (Delta Modulation) Analog voice signal Sampling clock PAM signal PCM signal Sampling Circuit Sampling Circuit Quantizer and compander Quantizer and compander Digitized voice signal

51. 51 Pulse Code Modulation(PCM) (1) zIf a signal is sampled at regular intervals at a rate higher than twice the highest signal frequency, the samples contain all the information of the original signal y(Proof - Stallings appendix 4A) zVoice data limited to below 4000Hz zRequire 8000 sample per second zAnalog samples (Pulse Amplitude Modulation, PAM) zEach sample assigned digital value

52. 52 Pulse Code Modulation(PCM) (2) z4 bit system gives 16 levels zQuantized yQuantizing error or noise yApproximations mean it is impossible to recover original exactly z8 bit sample gives 256 levels zQuality comparable with analog transmission z8000 samples per second of 8 bits each gives 64kbps

53. 53 The process starts with an analog signal, which is sampled by PAM sample. the resulting pulse are quantized to produced PCM pulses and then encoded to produce bit stream. At the receiver end, the process is reversed to reproduce the analog signal.

55. 55 Nonlinear Encoding  Quantization levels are not necessarily equally spaced. The problem with equal spacing is that the mean absolute error for each sample is the same, regardless the signal level. Lower amplitude values are relatively more distorted. zNonlinear encoding reduces overall signal distortion zCan also be done by companding

57. 57 Prior to the input signal being sampled and converted by ADC into a digital form, it is passed through a circuit known as a compressor. Similarly, at the destination, the reverse operation is perform on the output of the DAC by a circuit known as expander.

58. 58 Delta Modulation zAnalog input is approximated by a staircase function zMove up or down one level (  ) at each sample interval zBinary behavior yFunction moves up or down at each sample interval
