Title: To perform AM using MATLAB- Coding and Simulink technique.

______________________________________________________________________
Aim and Objectives of the Experiment--
1) To generate AM modulation using matlab coding and Simulink technique.

COs to be achieved --
CO3: Analyze and interpret data of modulation and demodulation techniques.
CO5: Use the techniques, skills, and modern engineering tools like Matlab Simulink,
spectrum analyser, necessary for engineering practice.
Theory:
AM is the modulation process in which the high frequency carrier amplitude is varied in
accordance with the modulating signal. The mathematical expression of AM can be written
as: Eam= V [1+ m.sinωmt].Sinωct .
On analyzing the expression it is found that the AM Spectrum consists of carrier, upper side
band and lower side band frequencies. The modulation Index in AM is defined as the ratio of
maximum modulating voltage to maximum carrier voltage.
M = Em / Ec
The demodulation of AM wave form is carried out by passing the signals through the rectifier
detector but the diode used is normally point contact or high frequency diode. The filter time
constant is very important as it may lead to diagonal clipping of waveform.
The modulation process produces a carrier & two side bands called as double side band full
carrier (DSBFC). The carrier carries no information and consumes power. Thus this carrier is
suppressed & the signal is called double side band suppressed carrier (DSBSC). Vm (t) is the
modulating signal & Vc(t) is the carrier signal.
Vm (t) = Bsin(2лft) & Vc(t) = Asin(2лft)
The modulated signal consists of three components:
A sin (2лft) carrier
(mA/2) cos [2л (F-f) t] lower side band

Basics of Communication Engg. /Jan.-May-2019


K. J. Somaiya College of Engineering, Mumbai-77
(Autonomous College Affiliated to University of Mumbai)
Department of Electronics Engineering
(mA/2) cos [2л (F-f) t] upper side band
The amplitude-modulated signal is simple to produce but has two practical drawbacks in
application to many real communications systems: the bandwidth of the AM signal is twice
that of the modulating signal and most of the power is transmitted in the carrier, not in the
information bearing sidebands. To overcome these problems with AM, versions on AM have
been developed. These other versions of the AM are used in applications were bandwidth
must be conserved or power used more effectively. If the carrier could somehow be removed
or reduced, the transmitted signal would consist of two information-bearing sidebands, and
the total transmitted power would be information. When the carrier is reduced, this is called
as double sideband suppressed carrier AM or DSB-SC. Instead of two third of the power in
the carrier, nearly all being the available power is used in sidebands.
Stepwise-Procedure:
Basically amplitude modulated signal is generated by product modulator. The inputs to the
product modulator are message signal and carrier signal. Demodulation is the process of
extracting the baseband message signal from the carrier so that it may be processed at the
receiver. For that purpose various methods are used like diode detector method, product
detector method, filter detector etc. The same has been implemented on simulink model. Low
pass filter has been implemented to extract the carrier from the modulated signal. Low pass
filter (LPF), filters out the high frequency component and allows the low frequency
component to pass. Since the carrier signal is of relatively much higher frequency than that of
message signal, carrier signal is attenuated while the message signal is received at the
receiver.

Title: To demodulate AM signal using diode detector.


Aim and Objectives of the Experiment.--
1) To demodulate AM signal using diode detector.
2) To observe the distortions at the output because of different RC time constants.

COs to be achieved –

CO2: Student should be able to build circuit and conduct experiments using breadboard and IC.
CO3: Student should be able to analyze and interpret data of modulation and demodulation
techniques.
___________________________________________________________________________
Theory:
AM diode detector or demodulator used for converting AM signals into useable audio.
One of the advantages of amplitude modulation (AM) is that it is cheap and easy to build a
demodulator circuit for a radio receiver. The simplicity AM radio receivers AM is one of the
reasons why AM has remained in service for broadcasting for so long. One of the key factors
of this is the simplicity of the receiver AM demodulator.
A number of methods can be used to demodulate AM, but the simplest is a diode detector. It
operates by detecting the envelope of the incoming signal. It achieves this by simply
rectifying the signal. Current is allowed to flow through the diode in only one direction,
giving either the positive or negative half of the envelope at the output. If the detector is to be
used only for detection it does not matter which half of the envelope is used, either will work
equally well. Only when the detector is also used to supply the automatic gain control (AGC)
circuitry will the polarity of the diode matter.

Title: To generate and analyse Frequency Modulated Waveform


Aim and Objectives of the Experiment..--
1) To generate FM signal

electrical and Electronics to analyze communication system.
CO2: Student should be able to build circuit and conduct experiments using breadboard and IC.
CO3: Student should be able to analyze and interpret data of modulation and demodulation
techniques.

Theory:
Frequency modulation consists in varying the frequency of the carrier voltage in accordance
with the instantaneous value of the modulating voltage. Thus the amplitude of the carrier does
not change due to frequency modulation. Let the modulating voltage be given by expression:
Vm=Vm.cosωmt.
Where, wm is angular frequency of the signal &Vm is the amplitude. Let the carrier voltage
be given by expression, Vc=Vc.sin(ωct+θ)
On frequency modulation, the instantaneous value of modulated carrier voltage is given by,

Hence the frequency modulated carrier voltage is given by,


V=Vc.sin(wct+Kf.Vm/ω.sinωmt)
The modulation index is defined as the ratio of frequency deviation to frequency of
modulating signal mf=d/fm where deviation d= (fmax-fmin)/2.

Theory: Pre-emphasis

The circuits are the transmitting side of the frequency modulator. It is used to increase the
gain of the higher frequency component as the input signal frequency increased, the
impendence of the collector voltage increase. If the signal frequency is lesser then the
impendence decrease which increase the collector current and hence decrease the voltage.

Title: To verify sampling theorem.


__________________________________________________________________________
Aim and Objectives of the Experiment.—
1) To check analog signal reconstruction.
2) To check aliasing effect.

COs to be achieved :
CO1: Apply knowledge of mathematics, science, and engineering such as concept of Basic
electrical and Electronics to analyze communication system.
CO3: Analyze and interpret data of modulation and demodulation techniques.

Theory:
In analog communication system like AM & FM the instantaneous value of the information is
used to change certain parameters of carrier wave.
Pulse modulation systems differ from the analog system in a way that they transmit a limited
number of discrete states of signals at the pre-determined rate. Sampling can be defined as
measuring the value of signal at a pre-determined time interval. The rate at which the signal is
sampled is known as sampling rate or sampling frequency. It determines the quality of
reproduced signal.
Nyquist Criterion: The lowest sampling frequency that can be used without sideband
overlapping is twice the highest frequency component present in the information signal. If we
reduce the frequency we cannot get the original signal simply by low pass filtering. This
phenomenon is called aliasing in which the low frequency components merge with the high
frequency components of adjacent bands.

Title: To generate and analyze Time Division Multiplexing of PCM signal

Aim and Objectives of the Experiment:


To generate Pulse Code Modulated Signals and multiplexing those using ‘Time Division
multiplexing’ scheme.
_________________________________________________________________________

COs to be achieved:
CO1: Apply knowledge of mathematics, science, and engineering such as concept of Basic
electrical and Electronics to analyze communication system.
CO3: Analyze and interpret data of modulation and demodulation techniques.

Theory:
Multiplexing is a process of simultaneously transmitting two or more Individual signals over
a signal communication channel. Multiplexing has the effect of increasing the number of
communication channels so that more information can be transmitted. PCM signal is
generated by using sampling. Sampling is process of Looking at an analog signal for brief
instant of time. During this very short Interval of time, the amplitude of analog signal is
sampled at a periodic rate and resulting signal will be a series of samples or pulses that vary
in Amplitude according to variations of analog signal.
Pulse code modulation (PCM) is a digital scheme for transmitting analog data. The signals in
PCM are binary; that is, there are only two possible states, represented by logic 1 (high) and
logic0 (low). This is true no matter how complex the analog waveform happens to be. Using
PCM, it is possible to digitize all forms of analog data, including full-motion video, voices,
music, telemetry, and virtual reality (VR). To obtain PCM from an analog waveform at the
source (transmitter end) of a communications circuit, the analog signal amplitude is sampled
(measured) at regular time intervals. The sampling rate, or number of samples per second, is
several times the maximum frequency of the analog waveform in cycles per second or hertz.

Basics of Communication Engg. /Jan.-May-2019


K. J. Somaiya College of Engineering, Mumbai-77
(Autonomous College Affiliated to University of Mumbai)
Department of Electronics Engineering
The instantaneous amplitude of the analog signal at each sampling is rounded off to the
nearest of several specific, predetermined levels. This process is called quantization. The
number of levels is always a power of 2 -- for example, 8, 16, 32, or 64. These numbers can
be represented by three, four, five, or six binary digits (bits) respectively. The output of a
pulse code modulator is thus a series of binary numbers, each represented by some power of
2bits.At the destination (receiver end) of the communications circuit, a pulse code
demodulator converts the binary numbers back into pulses having the same quantum levels as
those in the modulator. These pulses are further processed to restore the original analog
waveform. The time division multiplexing of PAM can be accomplished by a circuit called
Multiplexer (MUX).The multiplexer is a signal pole, multiple position mechanical or
electronics switch that sequentially samples the multiple analog inputs at a high rate of speed.
At transmitter end the multiple channel signals are selected by various sampled circuits. On
Time sharing basis they are all combined in time slot. This is parallel to serial conversion. At
the receiver end the serial data is converted into parallel lines for each Channel.

Theory:

Delta modulation (DM or Δ-modulation) is an analog-to-digital and digital-to-analog signal


conversion technique used for transmission of voice information where quality is not of
primary importance. DM is the simplest form of differential pulse-code modulation (DPCM)
where the difference between successive samples is encoded into n-bit data streams. In delta
modulation, the transmitted data is reduced to a 1-bit data stream. Its main features are:
The analog signal is approximated with a series of segments
Each segment of the approximated signal is compared to the original analog wave to
determine the increase or decrease in relative amplitude.
The decision process for establishing the state of successive bits is determined by this
comparison, only the change of information is sent, that is, only an increase or decrease of the
signal amplitude from the previous sample is sent whereas a no-change condition causes the
modulated signal to remain at the same 0 or 1 state of the previous sample.

Title: To setup and analyse optical analog communication link.

Aim and Objectives of the Experiment.


1. To understand basic components required for optical communication link.
2. To analyze analog optical communication link.

COs to be achieved –
CO4: Student should able to understand the use of communication technology in life-long
learning.
Theory:

Basically a fiber optic link contains three main elements, a transmitter module takes
the input signal in electrical form and then transforms it into optical (light) energy containing
the same information. The optical fiber is the medium which carries this energy to the
receiver. At the receiver, light is converted back into electrical form with the same pattern as
originally fed to the transmitter.
Transmitter: Fiber optic transmitters are typically composed of a buffer, driver and
optical source. The buffer electronics provides both an electrical connection and isolation
been the transmitter and the electrical system supplying the data. The driver electronics
provides electrical power to the optical source in a fashion that duplicates the pattern of data
being fed to the transmitter. Finally the optical source (LED) converts the electrical current to
light energy with the same pattern.
Receiver: The function of the receiver is to convert the optical energy into electrical
form which is then conditioned to reproduce the transmitted electrical signal in its original
form. The detector SFH 250V used in the kit 2 has a diode type output. The parameters

usually considered in the case of detector are it’s responsivity at peak wavelength and the
response time. SFH 250V has responsivity in the case of detector are about 4 uA per 10 u W
of incident optical energy at 950 nm and it has rise & fall time of 0.01 uses.

Stepwise-Procedure:

1. Slightly unscrew the cap of IR, LED SFH 450V from Kit 1. Do not remove the cap
from the connector, Once the cap and assure that the fiber is properly fixed. Now
fighter the cap by screwing it back.
2. Connect the power supply cable with proper polarity to kit 1 and Kit 2. While
connecting this, ensure that the power supply is OFF.
3. Connect the signal generator between the AMP I/P and GND posts in Kit 1 to feed the
and log signal to the pre-amplifier.
4. Keep the signal generator in sine wave mode and select the frequency of 1 KHz with
amplitude of 2 Vpp (Max. input level is 4 Vpp)
5. Switch ON the power supply and signal generator
6. Check the output signal of the pre-ampl. At the post AMP O/P in kit 1. It should be
same as that of the applied input signal.
7. Now rotate the Optical Power Control pot P1 located below power supply connector
in Kit 1 in anticlockwise direction. This ensure minimum current flow through LED.
8. Short the following posts in Kit 1 with the links provided.
 +gv and +gv. This ensures supply to TX
 AMP O/P and Transmitter I/P
9. Connect the other end of the fiber to detector SFH 250V in Kit 2 very carefully as per
the instructions in step (1)
10. Ensure that the jumper located just above IC U in Kit 2 is shorted to pin 2 and 3
shorting of the jumper allows connection of PIN diode to Trans impedance amplifier
stage.
