Lecture 1

- Introduction & Revision- Hilbert Transform


Remember: Elements of Communication System

• The transmitter is located at some point in space

• The receiver is located at some other point separate from the

transmitter

• The channel is the physical medium that connects them


Transmitter• The purpose of the transmitter is to convert the

message signal produced by the source of information into a form suitable for transmission over the channel.

• One of the process performed by the transmitter is the MODULATION.

• MODULATION is the process of transformation of baseband signal m(t) into a passband signal s(t) using a carrier signal c(t).


Receiver• The purpose of the receiver is to recover the message

signal through demodulation.

• DEMODULATION is the inverse process of modulation i.e transformation of passband signal s(t) into the original baseband signal m(t).

• Some other tasks of the receiver are:

- Noise reduction

- Interference suppression.


Channel


Fundamental Concepts

There are TWO basic modes of communication:

(1)Broadcasting:

- Use of a single powerful transmitter and several receiver (ex.

broadcasting).

- Signals flow only in one direction.

(2) Point to Point:

- The communication process takes place over a link between a

single transmitter and a receiver.

- Signals flow in two direction.


Main Recourses of Communication Systems

• Transmitted Power: is the average power of the transmitted

signal.

• Channel Bandwidth: is the range of frequencies allocated to

the channel.

Performance measure• In Analog communications: Performance is measured by “output

signal to noise ratio” defined by:

Analog Signals

- Used in:

- Radio broadcasting

- TV

- Microwave Communications.

•

• Analog Signals more affected by noise than digital (noise is part of the signal).

Baseband and bandpass Signals

• Baseband Signal: Has its spectrum centered

around the origin f=0 and is zero elsewhere.

baseband Signal


• A carrier frequency is used to shift the frequency spectrum of transmitted signals.

• Baseband signals w(t) may be transformed into bandpass signals through multiplication by a carrier (Modulation):

Band Pass Signals:


Remember: Definition of Bandwidth

Bandwidth is a term used to describe

a positive frequency range over which

the signal has significant content.

Absolute Bandwidth:


Bandwidth - BasebandRemember

Absolute Bandwidth=W


Bandwidth - BandpassRemember

Absolute Bandwidth=2W


The Reasons for Bandpass Modulation

1. To decrease size of Antenna

For efficient radiation of electromagnetic energy, the size of the

radiation antenna is proportional to the wavelength of the radiated

signal.

As f increases decreases and then Anntena size decreases

Consider the case of several radio stations broadcasting audio baseband

signals directly, without any modulation. They would interfere with each

other because the spectra of all the signals occupy more or less the same

bandwidth.

We can use various audio signals to modulate different carrier

frequencies, thus translating each signal to a different frequency range. If

the various carriers are chosen sufficiently far apart in frequency, the

spectra of the modulating signals will not overlap and thus will not

interfere with each other.

2. Simultaneous Transmission of Several Signal

3. Better control of filtering operation


Complex Envelope Representation• Any bandpass signal s(t) (modulated signal) can be

represented by:

• Where:

Re {.} represents the real part of any complex

number

is the angular frequency of the carrier signal

is called the complex envelope
