EXPERIMENT NO. 1
TIME DIVISION MULTIPLEXING OF TWO BAND LIMITED SIGNALS
AIM: To demonstrate the multiplexing and demultiplexing of two band limited signals using
discrete components and also to observe and record the waveform.
COMPONENTS AND EQUIPMENTS REQUIRED: Transistor- SL100, SK100, Resistor-
1K & 10K, Capacitor- 1 F, IC 741, Signal Generator, CRO, Power Supply- +/- 15V, Bread
Board, Wires and probes
THEORY:
Time Division Multiplexing (TDM) is widely used in digital communication
networks to transmit multiple signals simultaneously through the same channel.
Different signals are transmitted in a time shared manner. Each signal is allotted a fixed
time slot and a sample of the corresponding signal is transmitted during that period.
After one sample each of all the signals is sent, the time slot is given back to the first
signal and this process repeats.
TDM Multiplexer
A simple TDM multiplexer circuit using an NPN-PNP transistor pair and an Op
amp is shown in figure. The transistors work as switches and the Op amp works as an
adder. The signals to be sent are fed to the collectors of the two transistors. The
switching signal is applied to the bases the transistors. During the ON time of the
switching signal, the NPN transistor is ON and the PNP transistor is OFF. Signal 1
alone is connected to the adder input and reaches the output. During OFF time of the
switching signal, the NPN transistor is OFF and the PNP transistor is ON. Signal 2
alone is connected to the adder input and reaches the output. Thus the two signals reach
the output one after the other as the switching signal changes state. The resulting signal
is a time division multiplexed one. The on-off period of the switching signal decides the
time slot.
TDM Demultiplexer
In the demodulator circuit the two transistors act as switches. They connect the input
TDM signal to the respective outputs alternately as the switching signal changes state. A
square wave signal with the same phase and frequency as the one used at the TDM
modulator is used as the switching signal. During the ON time of the switching signal,
the NPN transistor is ON and the PNP transistor is OFF. TDM input is now connected
to signal 1 output. During the OFF time of the switching signal, the NPN transistor is
OFF and the PNP transistor is ON. TDM input is now connected to signal 2 output. The
RC networks act as low pass filters.
PROCEDURE:
• Test all the components and probes.
• Set up the circuits on the bread board as shown in figure.
• Connect 5Vpp, 2KHz square wave signal as the switching input.
• Connect 2Vpp, 100Hz sine wave as signal 1 and 2Vpp, 100Hz square wave as signal
2.
• Observe the TDM output on CRO and plot the waveforms.
• Feed this TDM output to the input of the demultiplexer. Use the same square
wave signal used at the modulator as the switching signal.
• Observe signal 1 and signal 2 outputs of the demultiplexer on CRO.
• Plot the waveforms.

MEASUREMENTS OF DIRECTIVITY AND GAIN OF ANTENNAS: STANDARD
DIPOLE (OR PRINTED DIPOLE), MICROSTRIP PATCH ANTENNA AND YAGI
ANTENNA (PRINTED).
AIM: To find the directivity and gain of Antenna.
COMPONENTS REQUIRED:
1. Microwave Generator
2. SWR Meter
3. Detector
4. RF Amplifier
5. Transmitter and receiving mast
6. Mains cord
7. Antennas
o Yagi Antenna (Dielectric Constant: 4.7) - 2 no.

o Dipole Antenna (Dielectric Constant: 4.7) - 1 no.
o Patch Antenna (Dielectric Constant: 3.02) - 1 no.
THEORY:
If a transmission line propagating energy is left open at one end, there will be radiation from
this end. The Radiation pattern of an antenna is a diagram of field strength or more often the
power intensity as a function of the aspect angle at a constant distance from the radiating
antenna. An antenna pattern is of course three dimensional but for practical reasons it is
normally presented as a two dimensional pattern in one or several planes. An antenna pattern
consists of several lobes, the main lobe, side lobes and the back lobe. The major power is
concentrated in the main lobe and it is required to keep the power in the side lobes arid back
lobe as low as possible. The power intensity at the maximum of the main lobe compared to the
power intensity achieved from an imaginary omni-directional antenna (radiating equally in all
directions) with the same power fed to the antenna is defined as gain of the antenna.
As we know that the 3dB beam width is the angle between the two points on a main lobe where
the power intensity is half the maximum power intensity. When measuring an antenna pattern,

it is normally most interesting to plot the pattern far from the antenna. It is also very important
to avoid disturbing reflection. Antenna measurements are normally made at anechoic chambers
made of absorbing materials. Antenna measurements are mostly made with unknown antenna
as receiver. There are several methods to measure the gain of antenna. One method is to
compare the unknown antenna with a standard gain antenna with known gain. Another method
is to use two identical antennas, as transmitter and other as receiver. From following formula
the gain can be calculated.
Where
Pt is transmitted power
Pr is received Power,
G1, G2 is gain of transmitting and receiving antenna
S is the radial distance between two antennas
o is free space wave length.
If both, transmitting and receiving antenna are identical having gain G then above equation
becomes.

In the above equation Pt, Pr and S and o can be measured and gain can be computed. As is
evident from the above equation, it is not necessary to know the absolute value of P t and Pr only
ratio is required which can be measured by SWR meter.
SETUP FOR DIRECTIVITY MEASUREMENT
Figure. 6(a)
PROCEDURE:
Directivity Measurement:
1. Connect a mains cord to the Microwave Generator and SWR Meter.
2. Now connect a Yagi antenna in horizontal plane to the transmitter mast and connect it
to the RF Output of microwave generator using a cable (SMA to SMA).
3. Set both the potentiometer (Mod Freq & RF Level) at fully clockwise position.
4. Now take another Yagi antenna and RF Amplifier from the given suitcase.
5. Connect the input terminal of the Amplifier to the antenna in horizontal plane using an
SMA (male) to SMA (female) L Connector.
6. Now connect the output of the Amplifier to the input of Detector and mount the detector
at the Receiving mast.
7. Connect one end of the cable (BNC to BNC) to the bottom side of receiving mast, and
another end to the input of SWR meter.
8. Now set the distance between Transmitter (feed point) and the receiver (receiving point)
at half meter.

Figure. 6(b)
9. Now set the receiving antenna at zero degree (in line of Transmitter) and Switch on the
power supply for Microwave Generator, SWR Meter. Also connect DC Adapter of RF
Amplifier to the mains.
10. Select the transmitter for internal AM mode and press the switch “RF On”.
11. Select the range switch at SWR meter at – 40dB position with normal mode.
12. Set both the gain potentiometers (Coarse & Fine) at fully clockwise position and input
select switch should be at 200 Ohm position. In case if reading is not available at –
40dB range then press 200 kOhm (Input Select) to get high gains reading.

13. Now set any value of received gain at – 40dB position with the help of -
o Frequency of the Microwave Generator.
o Modulation frequency adjustment.
o Adjusting the distance between Transmitter and Receiver.
14. With these adjustments you can increase or decrease the gain.
15. Mark the obtained reading on the radiation pattern plot at zero degree position.
16. Now slowly move the receiver antenna in the steps of 10 degree and plot the
corresponding readings.
17. Using the formula, Directivity = 41253/ (E x H) Determining the directive gain of the
antenna. Where E is the E plane 3db beam width in degrees and H in the H plane.
18. Directivity of the antenna is the measures of power density an actual antenna radiates in
the direction of its strongest emission, so if the maximum power of antenna (in dB) is
received at θ degree then directivity will be ....................dB at ......................... Degree.
19. In the same way you can measure the directivity of the Dipole antenna.
20. For directivity measurement of the transformer fed Patch antenna connect transmitter
Yagi antenna in the vertical plane (Patch Antenna is vertically polarized). Since it is
comparatively low gain antenna distance can be reduced between transmitter and
receiver.

Gain Measurement:
1. Connect a power cable to the Microwave Generator and SWR Meter.
2. Now connect a Yagi antenna in horizontal plane to the transmitter mast and connect it
to the RF Output of microwave generator using a cable (SMA to SMA).
3. Set both the potentiometer (Mod Freq & RF Level) at fully clockwise position.
4. Now take another Yagi antenna from the given suitcase.
5. Connect this antenna to the detector with the help of SMA (male) to SMA (female) L
Connector.
6. Connect detector to the receiving mast.
7. Connect one end of the cable (BNC to BNC) to the bottom side of receiving mast, and
another end to the input of SWR meter.
8. Now set the distance between Transmitter (feed point) and the receiver (receiving point)
at half meter.
9. Now set the receiving antenna at zero degree (in line of Transmitter) and Switch on the
power from both Generator & SWR Meter.
10. Select the transmitter for internal AM mode and press the switch “RF On”.
11. Select the range switch at SWR meter at – 40dB position with normal mode.
12. Set both the gain potentiometers (Coarse & Fine) at fully clockwise position and input
select switch should be at 200 Ohm position. In case if reading is not available at –
40dB range then press 200 kOhm (Input Select) to get high gain reading.
13. Now set the maximum gain in the meter with the help of following -
o Frequency of the Microwave Generator.
o Modulation frequency adjustment.
o Adjusting the distance between Transmitter and Receiver.
14. Measure and record the received power in dB.
Pr = .................. dB
15. Now remove the detector from the receiving end and also remove the transmitting Yagi
antenna from RF output.
16. Now connect the RF output directly to detector without disturbing any setting of the
transmitter (SMA-F to SMA-F connector can be used for this).
17. Observe the output of detector on SWR meter that will be the transmitting power Pt.

Pt = ................. dB
18. Calculate the difference in dB between the power measured in step 14 and 17 which
will be the power ratio Pt/Pr.
Pt/Pr =........................
Pr/Pt =........................
19. Now we know that the formula for Gain of the antenna is:
Where:
Pt is transmitted power
Pr is received Power,
G is gain of transmitting/receiving antenna (since we have used two identical antennas)
S is the radial distance between two antennas
o is free space wave length (approximately 12.5cm).
20. Now put the measured values in the above formula and measure the gain of the antenna
which will be same for both the antennas. Now after this step you can connect one
known gain antenna at transmitter end and the antenna under test at receiver end, to
measure the gain of the antennas.
21. Gain can be measured with the help of absolute power meter also (Recommended
Model NV105). For this, detector will not be used and directly the power sensor can be
connected to both the ends as described earlier.

2. Parallel line microstrip directional coupler (DUT).
3. Detector
4. Matched loads
5. Cables and adapters
Provided in the Kit, is a parallel line (backward wave) directional coupler (15dB). The
impedance of input/output lines is 50. The length of the parallel coupled line region is quarter
wavelength at the centre frequency (around 2.4 GHz). The ports are decoupled by bending the
auxiliary line and main line at either ends of the parallel coupled section. For the experiment,
anyone of the ports can be chosen as the input port. With respect to this input port, identify the
direct output port (port 2), the coupled port (port 3) and the isolated port (port 4). Measurement
of coupling involves measuring the transmission response between the input port (port 1) and
the coupled port (port 3). Similarly, measurement of isolation of the coupler involves
measuring the transmission response between the input port and the isolated port (port4). While
making the measurement between any two ports, the remaining two ports will have to be
terminated in matched loads.

THEORY OF RING RESONATOR:

The open-end effect encountered in a rectangular resonator at the feeding gaps can be
minimized by forming the resonator as a closed loop. Such a resonator is called a ring
resonator. The figure shown below is the layout of a ring resonator along with the input and
output feed lines. Resonance is established when the mean circumference of the ring is equal to
integral multiples of guide wavelength.

Where ro is the mean radius of the ring and n is the mode number. The microstrip ring resonator
has the lowest order resonance for n = 1,for frequency range 2 - 3 GHz. For this mode, the field
maxima occur at the two coupling gaps and nulls occur at 90 locations from the coupling gaps.

frequency f0 of the resonator as show in figure 2.

 Matched power divider (DUT).
 Directional coupler
 Detector
 Matched loads
 Cables and adapters
THEORY:
The microstrip power divider provided is of the 3 dB Wilkinson type the impedance of the
input/output lines is 50 and the isolation resistor connected between the two output lines has a
value of 100. Measuring the power division property involves measuring the transmission
response between the input port (port 1) and the two output ports (ports 2 and 3). While
measuring the transmission response between any two ports, the third port has to be terminated
in a matched load. Measuring the isolation property involves measuring the transmission
response between ports 2 and 3 by terminating port 1 in a matched load. Figure 1 shows the
line diagram of Y- junction as a power divider. Let port 1 be the input port that is matched to
the source (S11 = 0).

Figure. 7(i)
: Schematic of a Y - junction power divider
As an equal-split power divider, power incident at port 1 gets divided equally between the two
output ports 2 and 3. Equal power division implies S21 = S31 = 1/2. The phase factors of S21
and S31 can be made equal to zero (multiples of 360°) by appropriately choosing the reference
planes of ports 2 and 3 with respect to port 1.
Analysis and Design of Matched Power Divider
Figure 2 shows a matched power divider introduced by Wilkinson. Popularly known also as
Wilkinson power divider, it uses an isolation resistor R of value 2Z0 between ports 2 and 3. The
device is completely matched at all the three ports, and ports 2 and 3 are isolated from each
other at the centre frequency (f0).

Table 1.

5. Interchange ports 2 and 3. That is, connect port 2 with a detector and terminate port 3 in
matched load. Record the readings of the VSWR meter at the same frequencies as P 3out
dB in column 4 of the Table.
6. In order to determine the isolation between the two output ports, remove the power
divider and reconnect with port 2 at the input end and port 3 at the output end.

MEASUREMENT OF LOSSES IN A GIVEN OPTICAL FIBER (PROPAGATION
LOSS, BENDING LOSS) AND NUMERICAL APERTURE.
AIM: Study of losses in optical fiber.

(a). To measure propagation or attenuation loss in optical fiber.
THEORY:
Attenuation is loss of power. During transit light pulse lose some of their photons, thus
reducing their amplitude. Attenuation for a fiber is usually specified in decibels per kilometer.
For commercially available fibers attenuation ranges from 1 dB / km for premium small-core
glass fibers to over 2000 dB / km for a large core plastic fiber. Loss is by definition negative
decibels. In common usage, discussions of loss omit the negative sign. The basic measurement
for loss in a fiber is made by taking the logarithmic ratio of the input power (Pi) to the output
power (Po).
Where α is Loss in dB / Meter
PROCEDURE:
Attenuation Loss or Propagation Loss
1. Connect power supply to board
2. Make the following connections (as shown in figure 1).
a. Function generator’s 1 KHz sine wave output to Input 1 socket of emitter 1 circuit via
4 mm lead.
b. Connect L1 optic fiber between emitter 1 output and detector l's input.
c. Connect detector 1 output to amplifier 1 input socket via 4mm lead.
3. Switch ON the power supply.
4. Set the oscilloscope channel 1 to 0.5 V / Div and adjust 4 - 6 div amplitude by using X
1 probe with the help of variable pot in function generator block at input 1 of Emitter 1

5. Observe the output signal from detector tp10 on CRO.
6. Adjust the amplitude of the received signal same as that of transmitted one with the help
of gain adjust pot. In AC amplifier block. Note this amplitude and name it V1.
7. Now replace the previous FO cable with L2 m cable without disturbing any previous
setting.
8. Measure the amplitude at the receiver side again at output of amplifier 1 socket tp 28.
Note this value and name it V2. Calculate the propagation (attenuation) loss with the
help of following formula.
Where α is loss in nepers / meter

1 neper = 8. 686 dB
L 1 = length of shorter cable
L 2 = Length of longer cable
Figure. 8(a)
(b) Study of Bending Loss.

The object of this experiment in to study bending loss.
THEORY:
When ever the condition for angle of incidence of the incident light is violated the losses are
introduced due to refraction of light. This occurs when fiber is subjected to bending. Lower the
radius of curvature more is the loss.

PROCEDURE:
1. Repeat all the steps from 1 to 6 of the previous experiment using 1m cable.
2. Wind the FO cable on the mandrel and observe the corresponding AC amplifier output
on CRO. It will be gradually reducing showing loss due to bends.
Figure. 2
STUDY OF NUMERICAL APERTURE OF OPTICAL FIBER:
AIM: The aim of this experiment is to measure the numerical aperture of the optical fiber
provided with kit using 660nm wavelength LED.
THEORY:
Numerical aperture refers to the maximum angle at which the light incident on the fiber end is
totally internally reflected and is transmitted properly along the fiber. The cone formed by
rotating of this angle along the axis of the fiber is the cone of acceptance; else it is refracted out
of the fiber core.
CONSIDERATIONS IN N.A. MEASUREMENT:
1. It is very important that the optical source should be properly aligned with the cable
& the distance from the launched point & the cable be properly selected to ensure
that the maximum amount of optical power is transferred to the cable.
2. This experiment is best performed in a less illuminated room.

EQUIPMENTS:
Experimenter kit, 1-meter fiber cable, Numerical Aperture measurement Jig.
PROCEDURE:
1. Connect power supply to the board
2. Connect the frequency generator's 1 KHz sine wave output to input of emitter 1 circuit.
Adjust its amplitude at 5Vpp.
3. Connect one end of fiber cable to the output socket of emitter 1 circuit and the other end
to the numerical aperture measurement jig. Hold the white screen facing the fiber such
that its cut face is perpendicular to the axis of the fiber.
4. Hold the white screen with 4 concentric circles (10, 15, 20 & 25mm diameter) vertically
at a suitable distance to make the red spot from the fiber coincide with 10 mm circle.
NUMERICAL APERTURE MEASUREMENT SETUP
Figure. 8(b)
Figure. 8(c)
5. Record the distance of screen from the fiber end L and note the diameter W of the spot.
6. Compute the numerical aperture from the formula given below
W
NA = -------------- = sinmax
√4L2 + W2
7. Vary the distance between in screen and fiber optic cable and make it coincide with one
of the concentric circles. Note its distance
8. Tabulate the various distances and diameter of the circles made on the white screen and
compute the numerical aperture from the formula given above.
Inferences: The N.A. recorded in the manufacturer's data sheet is 0.5 typical. The variation in
the observation is due to fiber being under filled the Acceptance Angle is given by 2sinèmax.
The deviation from the data sheet is again due to fiber being under filled.

EXPERIMENT 1:
Objective: To simulate NRZ, RZ, halfsinusoidal pulses, raised cosine pulses and generate eye diagram
for binarypolar signaling.
Theory:
Line Coding
A line code is the code used for data transmission of a digital signal over a transmission line.
This process of coding is chosen so as to avoid overlap and distortion of signal such as inter-
symbol interference.
Properties of Line Coding

Following are the properties of line coding −
 As the coding is done to make more bits transmit on a single signal, the bandwidth used is much
reduced.
 For a given bandwidth, the power is efficiently used.
 The probability of error is much reduced.
 Error detection is done and the bipolar too has a correction capability.
 Power density is much favorable.
 The timing content is adequate.
 Long strings of 1s and 0s is avoided to maintain transparency.
Types of Line Coding

There are 3 types of Line Coding
 Unipolar
 Polar
 Bi-polar
Unipolar Signaling
Unipolar signaling is also called as On-Off Keying or simply OOK.
The presence of pulse represents a 1 and the absence of pulse represents a 0.

There are two variations in Unipolar signaling −
 Non Return to Zero (NRZ)
 Return to Zero (RZ)
Unipolar Non-Return to Zero (NRZ)

In this type of unipolar signaling, a High in data is represented by a positive pulse called
as Mark, which has a duration T0 equal to the symbol bit duration. A Low in data input has no
pulse.
The following figure clearly depicts this.
Advantages
The advantages of Unipolar NRZ are −
 It is simple.
 A lesser bandwidth is required.
Disadvantages
The disadvantages of Unipolar NRZ are −
 No error correction done.
 Presence of low frequency components may cause the signal droop.
 No clock is present.
 Loss of synchronization is likely to occur (especially for long strings of 1s and 0s).
Unipolar Return to Zero (RZ)

In this type of unipolar signaling, a High in data, though represented by a Mark pulse, its
duration T0 is less than the symbol bit duration. Half of the bit duration remains high but it
immediately returns to zero and shows the absence of pulse during the remaining half of the
bit duration.
It is clearly understood with the help of the following figure.
Advantages
The advantages of Unipolar RZ are −
 The spectral line present at the symbol rate can be used as a clock.
Disadvantages
The disadvantages of Unipolar RZ are −
 No error correction.
 Occupies twice the bandwidth as unipolar NRZ.
 The signal droop is caused at the places where signal is non-zero at 0 Hz.
Polar Signaling
There are two methods of Polar Signaling. They are −
 Polar NRZ
 Polar RZ
Polar NRZ
In this type of Polar signaling, a High in data is represented by a positive pulse, while a Low
in data is represented by a negative pulse. The following figure depicts this well.
Advantages
The advantages of Polar NRZ are −
 No low-frequency components are present.
Disadvantages
The disadvantages of Polar NRZ are −
 The signal droop is caused at the places where the signal is non-zero at 0 Hz.
Polar RZ
In this type of Polar signaling, a High in data, though represented by a Mark pulse, its
duration T0 is less than the symbol bit duration. Half of the bit duration remains high but it
immediately returns to zero and shows the absence of pulse during the remaining half of the
bit duration.

However, for a Low input, a negative pulse represents the data, and the zero level remains
same for the other half of the bit duration. The following figure depicts this clearly.
Advantages
The advantages of Polar RZ are −
Disadvantages
The disadvantages of Polar RZ are −
 Occupies twice the bandwidth of Polar NRZ.
 The signal droop is caused at places where the signal is non-zero at 0 Hz.
Bipolar Signaling
This is an encoding technique which has three voltage levels namely +, - and 0. Such a signal
is called as duo-binary signal.
An example of this type is Alternate Mark Inversion (AMI). For a 1, the voltage level gets a
transition from + to – or from – to +, having alternate 1sto be of equal polarity. A 0 will have a
zero voltage level.
Even in this method, we have two types.
 Bipolar NRZ
 Bipolar RZ
From the models so far discussed, we have learnt the difference between NRZ and RZ. It just
goes in the same way here too. The following figure clearly depicts this.
The above figure has both the Bipolar NRZ and RZ waveforms. The pulse duration and
symbol bit duration are equal in NRZ type, while the pulse duration is half of the symbol bit
duration in RZ type.
Advantages
Following are the advantages −
 Occupies low bandwidth than unipolar and polar NRZ schemes.
 This technique is suitable for transmission over AC coupled lines, as signal drooping doesn’t occur
here.

 A single error detection capability is present in this.
Disadvantages
Following are the disadvantages −
 Long strings of data causes loss of synchronization.
Manchester Encoding:
Manchester encoding is a synchronous clock encoding technique used by the physical layer of
the Open System Interconnection [OSI] to encode the clock and data of a synchronous bit
stream.

EXPERIMENT 2
Objective: To simulate the Pulse Code Modulation and demodulation system and display the
waveforms.
Theory:
Modulation is the process of varying one or more parameters of a carrier signal in accordance
with the instantaneous values of the message signal.
The message signal is the signal which is being transmitted for communication and the carrier
signal is a high frequency signal which has no data, but is used for long distance transmission.
There are many modulation techniques, which are classified according to the type of
modulation employed. Of them all, the digital modulation technique used is Pulse Code
Modulation (PCM).
A signal is pulse code modulated to convert its analog information into a binary sequence,
i.e., 1s and 0s. The output of a PCM will resemble a binary sequence. The following figure
shows an example of PCM output with respect to instantaneous values of a given sine wave.
Instead of a pulse train, PCM produces a series of numbers or digits, and hence this process is
called as digital. Each one of these digits, though in binary code, represent the approximate
amplitude of the signal sample at that instant.
In Pulse Code Modulation, the message signal is represented by a sequence of coded pulses.
This message signal is achieved by representing the signal in discrete form in both time and
amplitude.

Basic Elements of PCM

The transmitter section of a Pulse Code Modulator circuit consists of Sampling,
Quantizing and Encoding, which are performed in the analog-to-digital converter section.
The low pass filter prior to sampling prevents aliasing of the message signal.
The basic operations in the receiver section are regeneration of impaired signals,
decoding, and reconstruction of the quantized pulse train. Following is the block diagram of
PCM which represents the basic elements of both the transmitter and the receiver sections.
Low Pass Filter

This filter eliminates the high frequency components present in the input analog signal which
is greater than the highest frequency of the message signal, to avoid aliasing of the message
signal.
Sampler
This is the technique which helps to collect the sample data at instantaneous values of message
signal, so as to reconstruct the original signal. The sampling rate must be greater than twice
the highest frequency component Wof the message signal, in accordance with the sampling
theorem.

Quantizer
Quantizing is a process of reducing the excessive bits and confining the data. The sampled
output when given to Quantizer, reduces the redundant bits and compresses the value.
Encoder
The digitization of analog signal is done by the encoder. It designates each quantized level by
a binary code. The sampling done here is the sample-and-hold process. These three sections
(LPF, Sampler, and Quantizer) will act as an analog to digital converter. Encoding minimizes
the bandwidth used.
Regenerative Repeater
This section increases the signal strength. The output of the channel also has one regenerative
repeater circuit, to compensate the signal loss and reconstruct the signal, and also to increase
its strength.
Decoder
The decoder circuit decodes the pulse coded waveform to reproduce the original signal. This
circuit acts as the demodulator.
Reconstruction Filter
After the digital-to-analog conversion is done by the regenerative circuit and the decoder, a
low-pass filter is employed, called as the reconstruction filter to get back the original signal.
Hence, the Pulse Code Modulator circuit digitizes the given analog signal, codes it and
samples it, and then transmits it in an analog form. This whole process is repeated in a reverse
pattern to obtain the original signal.

EXPERIMENT 3
Objective: To simulate the QPSK transmitter and receiver. Plot the signals and its
constellation diagram.
Theory:
The Quadrature Phase Shift Keying (QPSK) is a variation of BPSK, and it is also a Double
Side Band Suppressed Carrier (DSBSC) modulation scheme, which sends two bits of digital
information at a time, called as bigits.
Instead of the conversion of digital bits into a series of digital stream, it converts them into bit
pairs. This decreases the data bit rate to half, which allows space for the other users.
QPSKModulator
The QPSK Modulator uses a bit-splitter, two multipliers with local oscillator, a 2-bit serial to
parallel converter, and a summer circuit. Following is the block diagram for the same.
At the modulator’s input, the message signal’s even bits (i.e., 2nd bit, 4th bit, 6th bit, etc.) and
odd bits (i.e., 1st bit, 3rd bit, 5th bit, etc.) are separated by the bits splitter and are multiplied
with the same carrier to generate odd BPSK (called as PSKI) and even BPSK (called
as PSKQ). The PSKQ signal is anyhow phase shifted by 90° before being modulated.
The QPSK waveform for two-bits input is as follows, which shows the modulated result for
different instances of binary inputs.

QPSK Demodulator
The QPSK Demodulator uses two product demodulator circuits with local oscillator, two band
pass filters, two integrator circuits, and a 2-bit parallel to serial converter. Following is the
diagram for the same.
T
he two product detectors at the input of demodulator simultaneously demodulate the two BPSK
signals. The pair of bits are recovered here from the original data. These signals after processing,
are passed to the parallel to serial converter.

EXPERIMENT 4
Objective: To test the performance of binary Differential phase shift keying (DPSK)
system by simulating the coherent/non coherent detection of binary DPSK
Theory:
In Differential Phase Shift Keying (DPSK) the phase of the modulated signal is shifted
relative to the previous signal element. No reference signal is considered here. The signal
phase follows the high or low state of the previous element. This DPSK technique doesn’t
need a reference oscillator.
The following figure represents the model waveform of DPSK.
It is seen from the above figure that, if the data bit is Low i.e., 0, then the phase of the signal is
not reversed, but continued as it was. If the data is a High i.e., 1, then the phase of the signal is
reversed, as with NRZI, invert on 1 (a form of differential encoding).
If we observe the above waveform, we can say that the High state represents an M in the
modulating signal and the Low state represents a W in the modulating signal.
DPSKModulator
DPSK is a technique of BPSK, in which there is no reference phase signal. Here, the
transmitted signal itself can be used as a reference signal. Following is the diagram of DPSK
Modulator.

DPSK encodes two distinct signals, i.e., the carrier and the modulating signal with 180° phase
shift each. The serial data input is given to the XNOR gate and the output is again fed back to
the other input through 1-bit delay. The output of the XNOR gate along with the carrier signal
is given to the balance modulator, to produce the DPSK modulated signal.
DPSK Demodulator
In DPSK demodulator, the phase of the reversed bit is compared with the phase of the
previous bit. Following is the block diagram of DPSK demodulator.
From the above figure, it is evident that the balance modulator is given the DPSK signal along
with 1-bit delay input. That signal is made to confine to lower frequencies with the help of
LPF. Then it is passed to a shaper circuit, which is a comparator or a Schmitt trigger circuit, to
recover the original binary data as the output.

Code:
N = 10^4 % number of bits or symbols

rand('state',100); % initializing the rand() function
randn('state',200);% initializing the randn() function
ip = rand(1,N)>0.5;% generating 0,1 with equal probability

n = 1/sqrt(2)*[randn(1,N) + j*randn(1,N)]; % white gaussian noise, 0dB variance
Eb_N0_dB = [-3:10]; % multiple Eb/N0 values
for ii = 1:length(Eb_N0_dB)
y = s + 10^(-Eb_N0_dB(ii)/20)*n; % additive white gaussian noise
ipDHat_coh = real(y) > 0; % coherent demodulation
ipHat_coh = mod(filter([1 -1],1,ipDHat_coh),2); %differential decoding
