PULSE CODE MODULATION
1. What is Modulation?
The adding of information to an electrical or optical carrier signal is known
as modulation. Modulation is the process of changing one or more aspects of a
periodic waveform, the carrier signal, with an amplitude modulation that generally
includes information to be communicated in electronics and telecommunications.
Amplitude modulation, frequency modulation, and phase modulation are the
three main forms of modulation. Amplitude modulation is a kind of modulation in
which the carrier signal's amplitude is altered according to the message signal
while the frequency and phase remain constant.
LOW PASS FILTER - To avoid aliasing of the message signal, this filter removes
high frequency components present in the input analog signal that are larger than
the highest frequency of the message signal.
DECODER – To recreate the original signal, the decoder circuit decodes the
pulse coded waveform. The demodulator is implemented in this circuit.
RECONSTRUCTION FILTER - After the regeneration circuit and the decoder
have completed the digital-to-analog conversion, a low-pass filter known as the
reconstruction filter is used to recover the original signal.
As a result, the Pulse Code Modulator circuit digitizes an analog signal, codes
and samples it, and then sends it as an analog signal. To get the original signal,
the same procedure is performed in reverse.
