  • 3 Characterization of Communication Signals and Systems
    63 3 Characterization of Communication Signals and Systems 3.1 Representation of Bandpass Signals and Systems Narrowband communication signals are often transmitted using some type of carrier modulation. The resulting transmit signal s(t) has passband character, i.e., the bandwidth B of its spectrum S(f) = s(t) is much smaller F{ } than the carrier frequency fc. S(f) B f f f − c c We are interested in a representation for s(t) that is independent of the carrier frequency fc. This will lead us to the so–called equiv- alent (complex) baseband representation of signals and systems.

  • 2 the Wireless Channel
    CHAPTER 2 The wireless channel A good understanding of the wireless channel, its key physical parameters and the modeling issues, lays the foundation for the rest of the book. This is the goal of this chapter. A defining characteristic of the mobile wireless channel is the variations of the channel strength over time and over frequency. The variations can be roughly divided into two types (Figure 2.1): • Large-scale fading, due to path loss of signal as a function of distance and shadowing by large objects such as buildings and hills. This occurs as the mobile moves through a distance of the order of the cell size, and is typically frequency independent. • Small-scale fading, due to the constructive and destructive interference of the multiple signal paths between the transmitter and receiver. This occurs at the spatialscaleoftheorderofthecarrierwavelength,andisfrequencydependent. We will talk about both types of fading in this chapter, but with more emphasis on the latter. Large-scale fading is more relevant to issues such as cell-site planning. Small-scale multipath fading is more relevant to the design of reliable and efficient communication systems – the focus of this book. We start with the physical modeling of the wireless channel in terms of elec- tromagnetic waves. We then derive an input/output linear time-varying model for the channel, and define some important physical parameters. Finally, we introduce a few statistical models of the channel variation over time and over frequency. 2.1 Physical modeling for wireless channels Wireless channels operate through electromagnetic radiation from the trans- mitter to the receiver.

  • Baseband Harmonic Distortions in Single Sideband Transmitter and Receiver System
    Baseband Harmonic Distortions in Single Sideband Transmitter and Receiver System Kang Hsia Abstract: Telecommunications industry has widely adopted single sideband (SSB or complex quadrature) transmitter and receiver system, and one popular implementation for SSB system is to achieve image rejection through quadrature component image cancellation. Typically, during the SSB system characterization, the baseband fundamental tone and also the harmonic distortion products are important parameters besides image and LO feedthrough leakage. To ensure accurate characterization, the actual frequency locations of the harmonic distortion products are critical. While system designers may be tempted to assume that the harmonic distortion products are simply up-converted in the same fashion as the baseband fundamental frequency component, the actual distortion products may have surprising results and show up on the different side of spectrum. This paper discusses the theory of SSB system and the actual location of the baseband harmonic distortion products. Introduction Communications engineers have utilized SSB transmitter and receiver system because it offers better bandwidth utilization than double sideband (DSB) transmitter system. The primary cause of bandwidth overhead for the double sideband system is due to the image component during the mixing process. Given data transmission bandwidth of B, the former requires minimum bandwidth of B whereas the latter requires minimum bandwidth of 2B. While the filtering of the image component is one type of SSB implementation, another type of SSB system is to create a quadrature component of the signal and ideally cancels out the image through phase cancellation.

  • Performance Evaluation of Power-Line Communication Systems for LIN-Bus Based Data Transmission
    electronics Article Performance Evaluation of Power-Line Communication Systems for LIN-Bus Based Data Transmission Martin Brandl * and Karlheinz Kellner Department of Integrated Sensor Systems, Danube University, 3500 Krems, Austria; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +43-2732-893-2790 Abstract: Powerline communication (PLC) is a versatile method that uses existing infrastructure such as power cables for data transmission. This makes PLC an alternative and cost-effective technology for the transmission of sensor and actuator data by making dual use of the power line and avoiding the need for other communication solutions; such as wireless radio frequency communication. A PLC modem using DSSS (direct sequence spread spectrum) for reliable LIN-bus based data transmission has been developed for automotive applications. Due to the almost complete system implementation in a low power microcontroller; the component cost could be radically reduced which is a necessary requirement for automotive applications. For performance evaluation the DSSS modem was compared to two commercial PLC systems. The DSSS and one of the commercial PLC systems were designed as a direct conversion receiver; the other commercial module uses a superheterodyne architecture. The performance of the systems was tested under the influence of narrowband interference and additive Gaussian noise added to the transmission channel. It was found that the performance of the DSSS modem against singleton interference is better than that of commercial PLC transceivers by at least the processing gain. The performance of the DSSS modem was at least 6 dB better than the other modules tested under the influence of the additive white Gaussian noise on the transmission channel at data rates of 19.2 kB/s.

  • Passband Data Transmission I Introduction in Digital Passband
    Passband Data Transmission I References Phase-shift keying Chapter 4.1-4.3, S. Haykin, Communication Systems, Wiley. J.1 Introduction In baseband pulse transmission, a data stream represented in the form of a discrete pulse-amplitude modulated (PAM) signal is transmitted over a low- pass channel. In digital passband transmission, the incoming data stream is modulated onto a carrier with fixed frequency and then transmitted over a band-pass channel. J.2 1 Passband digital transmission allows more efficient use of the allocated RF bandwidth, and flexibility in accommodating different baseband signal formats. Example Mobile Telephone Systems GSM: GMSK modulation is used (a variation of FSK) IS-54: π/4-DQPSK modulation is used (a variation of PSK) J.3 The modulation process making the transmission possible involves switching (keying) the amplitude, frequency, or phase of a sinusoidal carrier in accordance with the incoming data. There are three basic signaling schemes: Amplitude-shift keying (ASK) Frequency-shift keying (FSK) Phase-shift keying (PSK) J.4 2 ASK PSK FSK J.5 Unlike ASK signals, both PSK and FSK signals have a constant envelope. PSK and FSK are preferred to ASK signals for passband data transmission over nonlinear channel (amplitude nonlinearities) such as micorwave link and satellite channels. J.6 3 Classification of digital modulation techniques Coherent and Noncoherent Digital modulation techniques are classified into coherent and noncoherent techniques, depending on whether the receiver is equipped with a phase- recovery circuit or not. The phase-recovery circuit ensures that the local oscillator in the receiver is synchronized to the incoming carrier wave (in both frequency and phase).

  • The Complex-Baseband Equivalent Channel Model
    ECE-501 Phil Schniter February 4, 2008 replacements Complex-Baseband Equivalent Channel: Linear communication schemes (e.g., AM, QAM, VSB) can all be represented (using complex-baseband mod/demod) as: wideband modulation demodulation channel s(t) r(t) m˜ (t) Re h(t) + LPF v˜(t) × × j2πfct w(t) j2πfct ∼ e ∼ 2e− It turns out that this diagram can be greatly simplified. First, consider the signal path on its own: s(t) x(t) m˜ (t) Re h(t) LPF v˜s(t) × × j2πfct j2πfct ∼ e ∼ 2e− Since s(t) is a bandpass signal, we can replace the wideband channel response h(t) with its bandpass equivalent hbp(t): S(f) S(f) | | | | 2W f f ...because filtering H(f) Hbp(f) s(t) with h(t) is | | | | equivalent to 2W filtering s(t) f ⇔ f with hbp(t): X(f) S(f)H (f) | | | bp | f f 33 ECE-501 Phil Schniter February 4, 2008 Then, notice that j2πfct j2πfct s(t) h (t) 2e− = s(τ)h (t τ)dτ 2e− ∗ bp bp − · # !
