Amplitude and Angle Modulation 22 Communication Systems CHAPTER 2 Amplitude and Angle Modulation 2.1 INTRODUCTION Modulation is the process or result of the process by which a message is changed into information. Modulation plays vital role in the field of communication. Communication involves the transmission, reception and processing of information by electrical means. For the propagation of electric signals, the media used is electromagnetic field and when this field changes with time it takes the form of wave. Modulation is also the process whereby in response to the received wave either the original message or information pertaining the original message is made available in the desired form and is delivered when it is wanted. “Demodulation and detection” are the terms often observed to denote the recovery of the wanted message from a modulated signal. Modulation is fundamental to communication and it implies the bandwidth occupancy. In the chapter, we will basically deal with the fundamental concepts of Amplitude Modulation and Phase Modulation. 2.2 NEED FOR MODULATION If the signal is send directly, i.e. without modulation, i.e. unmodulated carrier several difficulties arise which are listed below: (1) Antenna height: Theory of antenna tells that for the efficient radiation of electromagnetic waves the height of antenna must be comparable to the quarter wavelength of the frequency which we are using. Now suppose you want to transmit the audio frequency, i.e. 20 kHz, we know that Cf= λ C ∴λ = (1) f where, λ = wavelength, C = velocity of light, f = frequency 24 Communication Systems In the process of modulation low frequency bandlimited signal is mixed with high frequency wave called, “carrier wave”. Such a carrier wave may be represented by the equation e = Em sin (ωt + φ) (2) where, e = instantaneous value of sine wave, Em = maximum amplitude, ω = angular frequency, φ = phase relation with respect to some reference. Any of these last three characteristics or parameters of the carrier may be varied by the low frequency modulating signal during the process of modulation. Thus, in the process of modulation, some characteristics of high frequency sinusoidal wave is varied in accordance with the instantaneous value of modulating signal since there are three parameters Em, ω and φ of a carrier wave, therefore, any of these parameters can be varied in proportion to the instantaneous value of the modulating signal, giving rise to amplitude, frequency or phase modulation respectively. Frequency and phase modulation are together named as “angle modulation”, as variation of any of the two varies the angle of the carrier wave. Amplitude Modulation: In this type of modulation, the amplitude of carrier signal is varied by the modulating voltage, whose frequency is less than that of carrier. Let Vc = Vc sin ωc t and Vm = Vm sin ωm t in the above expressions, the phase angle has been ignored. 2.3 FREQUENCY SPECTRUM OF AM WAVE Amplitude modulation is a system of modulation in which the amplitude of the carrier is made proportional to the instantaneous amplitude of modulating signal. Sideband frequency is defined as fSB = fc ± n fm (3) and in the first pair n = 1. When a carrier is amplitude modulated, the proportionality constant is made equal to unity and the instantaneous modulating voltage variations are superimposed on to the carrier amplitude. Hence, when there is no modulation, the amplitude of carrier is equal to its unmodulated value. When modulation is present the amplitude of the carrier is varied by its instantaneous value. This is shown in Fig. 2.1. In the figure it is clear that what will happen if Em is greater than Ec. Modulation index (m) is given by Em m = (4) Ec 26 Communication Systems mE E= E sin ω t +c [cos( ω −ω )t − cos( ω +ω )t] cc2 cm cm mEccmE E=ω+ω−ω−ω+ω Ecc sin t cos(cm )t cos(cm )t (7) 22 where, Ec sin ωc t = Unmodulated carrier mEc cos(ωcm −ω )t = Lower sideband 2 mEc −cos( ωcm +ω )t = Upper sideband 2 Total additional terms produced are the two sidebands. fc – fm = Lower sideband (LSB) fc + fm = Upper sideband (USB) This important conclusion is that the bandwidth required for amplitude modulation is twice the frequency of the modulating signal. 2.4 REPRESENTATION OF AM WAVE Figure 2.2 shows frequency spectrum of AM wave. C LSB USB (fcm – f ) (fcm + f ) Fig. 2.2: Spectrum of AM Wave Here in Fig. 2.2, AM is simply shown comprising of three different frequencies. The central frequency, i.e. carrier is having the highest amplitude and other two are placed symmetrical about it. They are having equal amplitudes. They never exceed half the carrier amplitude. Amplitude modulated wave is shown in Fig. 2.3. Area of top envelope is given by Ec + Em sin ωm t Area of the bottom envelope is given by – A = – (Ec + Em sin ωm t) Amplitude and Angle Modulation 27 Ecm + E sinw m t Emax Em Ec Emin t – (Ecm + E sinw m t) Fig. 2.3: Amplitude Modulated Wave Modulated wave extends between these two limits and has repetition rate equal to modulated carrier frequency. To Find Modulation Index: Amplitude of modulated carrier varies as, A = Ec [1 + m sin ωm t] The maximum and minimum values of A are, Ec (1 + ma) & Ec (1 – ma) and are denoted as Emax & Emin respectively. Hence, Emax = Ec (1 + ma) Emin = Ec (1 – ma) EEmax− min This gives ma = (8) EEmax+ min This equation is the standard method of evaluating the modulation index when calculating from a waveform. Such as may be seen on an oscilloscope. Oscilloscope Display of AM Pattern shown in Fig. 2.3 can be obtained directly on oscilloscope and modulation index can be measured directly from this modulated waveform. (a) Modulated wave is applied to the vertical deflection circuit of oscilloscope and modulating signal to horizontal deflection circuit.

Since the amplitude of the side bands depends on the modulation index, it is anticipated that the total power in the modulated wave will depend on the modulation index also.

Example 2.2: A broadcast radio transmitter radiates 10 kW when the modulation percentage is 60. How much of this is carrier power?

Thus, a transistor, a triode tube, a diode, etc. may be used as Square Law modulator. In such a modulator circuit, the output current flowing through the load is given by the power series 2 i = a0 + a1 e1 + a2 e1 + … where, a0, a1, a2, etc. are constant and e1 is the input voltage to the device.

Dietrich, Chair A. A. (Louis) Beex, Chair Allen B. MacKenzie May 5, 2016 Blacksburg, Virginia Keywords: OFDM, Constant Envelope OFDM, Peak-to-Average Power Ratio, Software Defined Radio, GNU Radio Design and Implementation of a Constant Envelope OFDM Waveform in a Software Defined Radio Platform Amos Vershima Ajo Jr. ABSTRACT This thesis examines the high peak-to-average-power ratio (PAPR) problem of OFDM and other spectrally-efficient multicarrier modulation schemes, specifically their stringent requirements for highly linear, power-inefficient amplification. The thesis then presents a most intriguing answer to the PAPR-problem in the form of a constant-envelope OFDM (CE-OFDM) waveform, a waveform which employs phase modulation to transform the high-PAPR OFDM signal into a constant envelope signal, like FSK or GMSK, which can be amplified with non-linear power amplifiers at near saturation levels of efficiency. A brief analytical description of CE-OFDM and its suboptimal receiver architecture is provided in order to define and analyze the key parameters of the waveform and their performance impacts. The primary contribution of this thesis is a highly tunable software-defined radio (SDR) implementation of the waveform which enables rapid-prototyping and testing of CE-OFDM systems. The digital baseband processing of the waveform is executed on a general purpose processor (GPP) in the Ubuntu 14.04 Linux operating system, and programmed using the GNU Radio SDR software framework with a mixture of Python and C++ routines.

  • Angle Modulation Phase and Frequency Modulation
    Angle Modulation Phase and Frequency Modulation Consider a signal of the form xc (t) = Ac cos(2π fct +φ(t)) where Ac and fc are constants. The envelope is a constant so the message cannot be in the envelope. It must instead lie in the variation of the cosine argument with time. Let θi (t) ! 2π fct +φ(t) be the instantaneous phase. Then jθi(t) xc (t) = Ac cos(θi (t)) = Ac Re(e ). θi (t) contains the message and this type of modulation is called angle or exponential modulation. If φ(t) = kp m(t) so that xc (t) = Ac cos(2π fct + kp m(t)) the modulation is called phase modulation (PM) where kp is the deviation constant or phase modulation index. Phase and Frequency Modulation Think about what it means to modulate the phase of a cosine. The total argument of the cosine is 2π fct +φ(t), an angle with units of radians (or degrees). When φ(t) = 0, we simply have a cosine and the angle 2π fct is a linear function of time. Think of this angle as the angle of a phasor rotating at a constant angular velocity. Now add the effect of the phase modulation φ(t). The modulation adds a "wiggle" to the rotating phasor with respect to its position when it is unmodulated. The message is in the variation of the phasor's angle with respect to the constant angular velocity of the unmodulated cosine.

  • Frequency Hopping Waveform Synthesis Based on Chirp
    (1) FREQUENCY HOPPING WAVEFORM SYNTHESIS BASED ON CHIRP MIXING USING SURFACE ACOUSTIC WAVE DEVICES A THESIS SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF SCIENCE OF THE UNIVERSITY OF EDINBURGH, FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY E W PATTERSON,'BSc UNIVERSITY OF EDINBURGH 1982 rl / (ii) ABSTRACT Frequency hopping (FH) waveform synthesis provides a useful method for generating spread spectrum (SS) signals. A summary of SS techniques and applications is presented. Techniques for frequency synthesis based on direct, indirect and digital "look-up" methods are described and their limitations for fast FH applications discussed. Surface acoustic wave (SAW) technology and applications are introduced and a comparison of synthesis techniques using SAW oscillators, filter banks and mixing linear frequency modulated (FM) (chirp) waveforms is presented. In particular, SAW chirp mixing is shown to be attractive for coherent, wideband, multi- frequency fast FH. A theoretical analysis of the chirp mixing process defines the synthesiser performance in terms of the chirp parameters. The design and construction of a prototype sum frequency equipment is described and performance is reported for continuously generated FH and CW signals. Error mechanisms arising from the chirp mixing process and component tolerances are identified. An analysis of ideal CW operation provides a method for quantifying the effects of individual errors. Computer simulation of typical errors using Fourier series and fast Fourier transform (FFT) techniques demonstrate the performance limitations. The degradation of synthesiser performance due to temperature variation is also reported. The synthesiser performance is discussed in relation to similar equipment Used in FH mode and topics for further study are suggested.

Leung EEE and Computing Departments Imperial College [email protected] Lecture Three Lecture Aims ● To examine modulation process ● Baseband and bandpass signals ● Double Sideband Suppressed Carrier (DSB-SC) - Modulation - Demodulation ● One of various modulators - Switching modulator 2 Modulation ● Modulation is a process that causes a shift in the range of frequencies in a signal. ● Two types of communication systems - Baseband communication: communication that does not use modulation - Carrier modulation: communication that uses modulation ● The baseband is used to designate the band of frequencies of the source signal. (e.g., audio signal 4kHz, video 4.3MHz) 3 Modulation (continued) In analog modulation the basic parameter such as amplitude, frequency or phase of a sinusoidal carrier is varied in proportion to the baseband signal m(t). This results in amplitude modulation (AM) or frequency modulation (FM) or phase modulation (PM). The baseband signal m(t) is the modulating signal. The sinusoid is the carrier or modulator. 4 Why modulation? ● To use a range of frequencies more suited to the medium ● To allow a number of signals to be transmitted simultaneously (frequency division multiplexing) ● To reduce the size of antennas in wireless links 5 Amplitude Modulation ● Carrier At cos(cc ) - Phase is constant c 0 - Frequency is constant ● Modulating signal m(t) ● With amplitude spectrum 6 Modulated signal ● Modulated signal: m(t)cosct 7 Modulated signal ● Modulated

The [4] and selective mapping (SLM) [5]; and non-distortionless efficiency of this method, however, is found to be not only impacted techniques such as signal clipping and peak cancellation [6], by the threshold selection but also by the average peak-to-average ratio (PAPR) value of the orthogonal frequency division multiplexing [7]. In general, although distortionless techniques are relatively (OFDM) signals. As such, the blanking capability can be further more complex than the non-distortionless ones, they are still more enhanced by reducing the PAPR value. With this in mind, in this attractive because the distortion caused by non-distortionless paper we evaluate the performance of constant envelope OFDM schemes can outweigh the benefit of the reduced PAPR. The other (CE-OFDM) which has inherently the lowest achievable PAPR of alternative technique is based on transforming the OFDM signal 0 dB; therefore, the proposed system is expected to provide the lower bound performance of the blanking-based method. In order prior to transmission and applying the inverse transformation at to characterize system performance, we consider the probability the receiver prior to demodulation.
