Single Sideband Modulation Using Tms32020 Digital Signal Processor SINGLE SIDEBAND MODULATION USING TMS32020 DIGITAL SIGNAL PROCESSOR by RABINDER SINGH MOKHA School of Electrical Engineering & Computer Science University of New South Wales Kensington, NSW, Australia. A project report (18 credit points) submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirement for the degree of Master of Engineering Science April, 1988 UNIVERSITY OF N.S.W. 2 1 MAR 1989 LIBRARY I hereby declare that this submission is my own work and that, to the best of my knowledge and belief, it contains no material previously published or written by another person nor material which to a substantial extent has been accepted for the award of any other degree or diploma of a university or other institute of higher learning, except where due acknowledgement is made in the text. Signed Date ABSTRACT In modern day communications, single sideband (SSB) modulation is the preferred means of transmission of speech signals, where its main attractions are low power and minimum bandwidth requirements. Theoretically, Weaver’s method of SSB generation is superior to the other methods available. Though Weaver’s method was first presented in 1956, the inability to produce two identical paths in analog, with components like modulators and filters, lead to the non-recognition of this method. In digital systems, where signal processing involves only arithmetic operations and the processing components comprise of numbers only, identical paths can very readily be obtained. With the availibility of high speed digital signal processors like the TMS320 family from Texas Instruments, such systems, operating on software, are possible. The work presented in the thesis involves the implementation of Weaver’s method for speech transmission, using the TMS32020 digital signal processor. For efficient implementation, the design procedures for the processing components were studied in detail. With the aid of hardware flag pins available on the processor, a technique for synchronizing the transmitter and receiver oscillator frequencies has been presented. Finite wordlength effects introduced in the digital system were also considered. Using interpolation, design for achieving higher sampling rates has been proposed. Digital implementation of other SSB generation methods was considered and the results compared with those from the Weaver’s method. With the availibility of next generation digital signal processors, the work presented in the thesis would open new possibilities for the advancements in SSB modulation. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to express my thanks to Dr.W.J.Dewar for his supervision, guidance, and encouragement throughtout the course of the thesis.

As long as input and output signals are band limited, conventional analog communication circuits can be replaced by their equivalent digital signal processors with the addition of analog-to-digital (A/D) and digital-to-analog (D/A) converters. Digital signal processing (DSP) involves the representation, transmission, and manipulation of signals using numerical techniques and digital processors. Over the recent years, DSP has made a tremendous progress. With the availability of large-scale integrated (LSI) circuitry and low cost A/D and D/A circuits, DSP have become economically feasible. But a bigger breakthrough has been the coming of single-chip (VLSI devices) digital signal processors which are essentially high-speed microprocessors/microcomputers designed specifically to perform DSP algorithms. The main advantages which have been the basic motivation for the use of DSP instead of traditional analog processing are : i. Low power, high speed digital signal processors with large storage capacities are now available. They are capable of performing arithmetic, storage and timing operations. ii. Since digital realizations are independent of variations in external conditions like power supply, component tolerances and temperature, the digital processing characteristics (e.g. filtering and modulation) can be reproduced to the same accuracy. iii. DSP is free from hardware problems and parasitic effects that restrict the analog realizations. iv. Digital signal processors offer a flexibility in their ability to be programmable and thus vary the characteristics as required. For example, filter characteristics can be varied simply by changing the filter tap coefficients. Because of the main advantages of stability, testability, reproducibility, accuracy, and flexibility, digital signal processors are becoming more prevalent in areas of general-purpose DSP, telecommunications, voice/speech, imaging and control. The work in this thesis investigates the feasibility of digital implementation of -2- various single sideband (SSB) generation methods on the TMS32020 digital signal processor from Texas Instruments. Until now, Weaver’s method of SSB generation has suffered severely from the limited accuracy of analog implementation of two identical paths. The digital implementation overcomes this shortcoming because two identical processing paths can be produced by having the same software and filter coefficients for the two. Besides the work presented in the thesis, a fair amount of time and effort was taken up by another two factors which are not apparent from the succeeding chapters. In the initial stages of the thesis, work involved in getting familiarized with a completely new and different set of assembler instructions & directives, and with the internal processor hardware architecture was demanding. This was necessary to make the best use of the TMS32020 instruction set and exploit the internal architecture efficiently. As explained later in Chapter 7, the processing time (or the sampling rate) plays a vital role in the feasibility of a digital system. Thus a fairly good knowledge of the processor software and hardware was important. Secondly, a TMS32020 Evaluation Module was assembled and tested to be used as a tool in software debugging. Different modulation techniques (including SSB) and a comparison between them is presented in Chapter 2. In Chapter 3, various SSB modulation methods have been presented. While Weaver’s method has been explained in detail, the other two modulation methods have been briefed. Chapter 4 reviews the digital realization of SSB signal generation using Weaver’s method. The basic components in a Weaver’s modulator are digital filters, frequency modulators, and oscillators. Design and implementation of each of these components has been presented. When an infinite number of bits are available for representing signals, the design characteristics can be implemented without any error. But in all practical digital systems, we have a finite number of bits to represent signals. This results in certain undesirable effects,

  • 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.

  • Design and Application of a Hilbert Transformer in a Digital Receiver
    Proceedings of the SDR 11 Technical Conference and Product Exposition, Copyright © 2011 Wireless Innovation Forum All Rights Reserved DESIGN AND APPLICATION OF A HILBERT TRANSFORMER IN A DIGITAL RECEIVER Matt Carrick (Northrop Grumman, Chantilly, VA, USA; [email protected]); Doug Jaeger (Northrop Grumman, Chantilly, VA, USA; [email protected]); fred harris (San Diego State University, San Diego, CA, USA; [email protected]) ABSTRACT A common method of down converting a signal from an intermediate frequency (IF) to baseband is using a quadrature down-converter. One problem with the quadrature down-converter is it requires two low pass filters; one for the real branch and one for the imaginary branch. A more efficient way is to transform the real signal to a complex signal and then complex heterodyne the resultant signal to baseband. The transformation of a real signal to a complex signal can be done using a Hilbert transform. Building a Hilbert transform directly from its sampled data sequence produces suboptimal results due to time series truncation; another method is building a Hilbert transformer by synthesizing the filter coefficients from half Figure 1: A quadrature down-converter band filter coefficients. Designing the Hilbert transform filter using a half band filter allows for a much more Another way of viewing the problem is that the structured design process as well as greatly improved quadrature down-converter not only extracts the desired results. segment of the spectrum it rejects the undesired spectral image, the spectral replica present in the Hermetian 1.

  • 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.

    On Hilbert Transform, Analytic Signal, and Modulation Analysis for Signals over Graphs Arun Venkitaraman, Saikat Chatterjee, Peter Handel¨ Department of Information Science and Engineering, School of Electrical Engineering and ACCESS Linnaeus Center KTH Royal Institute of Technology, SE-100 44 Stockholm, Sweden . Abstract We propose Hilbert transform and analytic signal construction for signals over graphs. This is motivated by the popularity of Hilbert transform, analytic signal, and mod- ulation analysis in conventional signal processing, and the observation that comple- mentary insight is often obtained by viewing conventional signals in the graph setting. Our definitions of Hilbert transform and analytic signal use a conjugate-symmetry-like property exhibited by the graph Fourier transform (GFT), resulting in a ’one-sided’ spectrum for the graph analytic signal. The resulting graph Hilbert transform is shown to possess many interesting mathematical properties and also exhibit the ability to high- light anomalies/discontinuities in the graph signal and the nodes across which signal discontinuities occur. Using the graph analytic signal, we further define amplitude, phase, and frequency modulations for a graph signal. We illustrate the proposed con- cepts by showing applications to synthesized and real-world signals. For example, we show that the graph Hilbert transform can indicate presence of anomalies and that arXiv:1611.05269v3 [cs.IT] 29 Jan 2018 graph analytic signal, and associated amplitude and frequency modulations reveal com- plementary information in speech signals.

  • 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.
