Base band converter:  To  convert the signal source  into base band waveform for the carrier signal  before transmission . Analog or digital system. Subsystem synchronization:   Synchronizing connection  between the  TX and RX  for  recovery processes . Terminology: Chapter 1: Introduction to Communication System
Transmission impairments :   Any  undesired effect on the signals  while traveling from the transmitter to the receiver, such as  noise, attenuation, interference  and other losses  caused  by the  atmosphere  or the  medium  itself. Attenuation :  Drop in signal power  due to  distance travel  by the signal. Interference :  Noise signal  that has the  same frequency  as the  information signal .  Terminology: Chapter 1: Introduction to Communication System
Digital and Analog signal Chapter 1: Introduction to Communication System
Chapter 1: Introduction to Communication System Message signals can be in two forms: Analog signals Analog information source  produces messages that defined on a  continuum  ( transition of one language to another) . Eg. Microphone. Digital signals Digital information source  produces a  finite  set of possible messages. Eg. Telephone touchtone pad.
Signal with interference Chapter 1: Introduction to Communication System
Chapter 1: Introduction to Communication System DEK 3233 COMMUNICATION ENGINEERING Analog Signal: Components of  Speech Characterized by  data  whose  values vary  over a  continuous range. Frequency range (of hearing)  20 Hz-20 kHz . Speech  100Hz-7kHz . Easily converted  into electromagnetic signal for transmission. Sound frequencies  with  varying volume  converted into  electromagnetic frequencies  with  varying voltage . Limit frequency  range for  voice channel  ~  300-3400Hz .
Chapter 1: Introduction to Communication System Digital Signal: From  computer terminals  etc. Constructed with  finite number of symbols .  Eg. Binary numbers, morse code, ASCII code etc. Bandwidth depends on data rate
Guided  coaxial cable, twisted pair, fiber optic, waveguide. The medium is more important. Unguided wireless (terrestrial, spacewave, free space, earth wave). The bandwidth produced by the antenna is more important. Characteristics and quality determined by medium and signal. Key concerns are data rate and distance. Chapter 1: Introduction to Communication System Transmission Medium
Chapter 1: Introduction to Communication System Analog Communication System Analog communication system transfers information from an analog source to the intended receiver (sink). Both info and carrier are analog signals. Advantages: A Simple system Cheap Disadvantages: Noise Attenuation - high loss
Chapter 1: Introduction to Communication System Digital Communication System Digital communication system transfers information from an digital source to the sink. Original source info may be in digital or analog signal. If analog signal = convert to digital pulses prior to transmission & converted back to analog signal at the RX. Disadvantages: More BW required Synchronization required.
Advantages: Digital technology Low cost LSI/VLSI technology Data integrity Longer distances over lower quality lines Capacity utilization High bandwidth links economical High degree of multiplexing easier with digital techniques Security & Privacy Encryption Integration Can treat analog and digital data similarly Chapter 1: Introduction to Communication System
Chapter 1: Introduction to Communication System Energy  and  Electromagnetic Waves
Electronic communication system send info from Tx to Rx by sending  electromagnetic energy . Modes: voltage, current, radio emission or light. Laws involved: Wavelength  -the distance traveled in time to complete one cycle. Velocity  – the speed at which energy travels through the medium. Frequency  – the number of oscillation or cycle per second (hertz, Hz)  v =  ƒ  Chapter 1: Introduction to Communication System
Radio wave, television wave, and microwaves are all types of  electromagnetic waves . They  differ from each  other  in wavelength . Wavelength is the  distance  between one wave crest to the next. Wave
Please refer to Maxwell’s Equation for more explanation. Chapter 1: Introduction to Communication System Electromagnetic Wave
Chapter 1: Introduction to Communication System
Chapter 1: Introduction to Communication System Electromagnetic Spectrum  and Allocations
It refers to the  total span  of  frequencies  and  corresponding wavelengths  used in  communication systems. 10,000 Hz to billions Hz. Application  depends on the  frequency  allocation. Eg. Submarines, AM broadcast, TV, Cellular phones, satellite systems etc. Chapter 1: Introduction to Communication System Electromagnetic Spectrum
Chapter 1: Introduction to Communication System Electromagnetic Spectrum
Ultra High Frequency (UHF)   *  freq > 1GHz  is known as  microwave TV  land mobile communication cellular phone  military certain radar and navigation system microwave and satellite  radio system amateur radio Chapter 1: Introduction to Communication System
Chapter 1: Introduction to Communication System Super High Frequency (SHF) microwave and satellite  radio system  radar specialized form of 2-way radio Extremely High Frequency (EHF) seldom used in radio communication except in very  sophisticated, expensive and specialized application  satellite  communication Radar * freq > 300 GHz are not referred as radio wave
Infrared refers to electromagnetic radiation generally associated with heat anything that produced heat generate infrared signal  eg : light bulb, human body astronomy (to detect stars) electronic photography heat-seeking guidance system (weapon) TV remote control Visible light optical communication Chapter 1: Introduction to Communication System
Bandwidth Portion of the  electromagnetic spectrum   occupied by the signal Frequency range   over  which a receiver or other electronic circuits operate. Difference between the  upper and lower limit frequency ,  limits of the signal , or  equipment operation range Channel bandwidth Range of  frequencies required to transmit the desired information i.e. an audio signal (3kHz) being modulated by a 1000kHz carrier signal using AM modulation Chapter 1: Introduction to Communication System Bandwidth(BW) and Channel BW
Chapter 1: Introduction to Communication System
Example 1: What is the bandwidth of HF signal? Chapter 1: Introduction to Communication System
Example 2: How many times more BW does the UHF band have than the VHF band? Chapter 1: Introduction to Communication System
Shannon’s Law:   I = 3.32BW log 10 (1 + (S/N))  I= information capacity, Unit: bits/second C = information or channel capacity BW = bandwidth (kHZ) S = signal power (W) N = noise power (W) Chapter 1: Introduction to Communication System Information Capacity
Example 3: Q. For a standard telephone circuit with signal-to-noise power ratio of 1000(30dB) and a bandwidth of 2.7kHz, determine the Shannon limit for information capacity A.  26.9 kbps Chapter 1: Introduction to Communication System
Gain and attenuation  often expressed in decibels, rather than ratio value (decimal) Decibel, dB  unit of measurement originally created as  a way of expressing the hearing response  of  human ear  to various  sound levels . A decibel is  one-tenth of a bel . Using decibel, total gain or attenuation can be  calculated  by simply  adding the gains and the attenuation  expressed in decibel. Chapter 1: Introduction to Communication System Decibel
Beside performing ratio operation,  decibel  is also  used  to  expressed power in communication . A notation is added after the dB symbol, dBW, dBm etc. For  dBm , reference level =  1mW . A larger unit,  dBW  has reference value of  1W . dBm and dBW  are decibel units used for  expressing power in communication. Chapter 1: Introduction to Communication System
Chapter 1: Introduction to Communication System Simplex, Duplex and Half Duplex
a) Simplex  is  one direction  data communication. e.g radio… Communication is only from one direction. b) Half Duplex  is involving  two directions  but only  one direction is allowed at a time. c) Duplex  is  two direction communication . Chapter 1: Introduction to Communication System
Chapter 1: Introduction to Communication System
Quiz: Gives 2 examples of each data communication: Simplex Duplex Half Duplex Chapter 1: Introduction to Communication System
The end Chapter 1: Introduction to Communication System
