Continuous Wave Modulation ECE 405 Continuous Wave Modulation Z. Aliyazicioglu Electrical & Computer Engineering Dept. Cal Poly Pomona Continuous Wave Modulation A modulation is a process of transforming a baseband signal (message) to another signal called modulated waveform. The demodulation is the process of recovering the baseband signal from the modulated waveform In modulation, the baseband signal is referred to as the modulating wave. The result of modulation process is referred as the modulated wave To shifting other frequency, we use carrier wave. Common form of carrier is a sinusoidal wave. Message Modulated Signal signal ModulationModulation Sinusoidal Carrier signal 1 Continuous Wave Modulation Modulated signal is transmitted end of the communication system. At the end of communication system, we have receiver. We require the original baseband signal to be restored at the receiver. The process at the receiver is called demodulation, which is the reverse of the modulation process. Received Estimated of signal Message signal DemodulationDemodulation The receiver receives the modulated signal with channel noise. The performance of cannel noise may depend of the type of modulation used. Continuous Wave Modulation Amplitude Modulation (AM): The amplitude of the sinusoidal carrier wave is varied in accordance with the baseband signal. >> t=0:0.0001:.4; >> y=cos(2*pi*10*t); >> subplot(3,1,1) >> plot(t,y) >> ylabel('m(t)') >> subplot(3,1,2) >> x=cos(2*pi*100*t); >> plot(t,x) >> s=1*(1+0.5*cos(2*pi*10*t)).*cos(2 *pi*100*t); >> subplot(3,1,3) >> plot(t,s) >> ylabel('s(t)') 2 Continuous Wave Modulation Amplitude Modulation (AM): Consider a sinusoidal carrier wave c(t) as fallow ct( )= Acc cos(2π ft ) where Ac is carrier amplitude, fc is carrier frequency. We assume the phase of carrier wave is zero. The amplitude modulation signal is st()=+ Aca[ 1 kmt ()cos(2] π ft c ) =+Acccaccos(2ππft ) Akmt ( )cos(2 ft ) where m(t) is the message signal, ka is called the amplitude sensitivity. Continuous Wave Modulation Amplitude Modulation (AM): We have two requirements to have the baseband signal shape over the envelope of the modulated signal. 1. The amplitude of is always les than one. kmta ( )< 1 for all t So that, 1() + kmt a stays positive. If the amplitude sensitivity is large to make kmt a ()> 1, then the carrier wave becomes overmodulated when the factor crossses zero. This creates envelope distortion in the modulated signal. 3 Continuous Wave Modulation Amplitude Modulation (AM): 2. The carier frequency is much greater than the highest frequency in baseband signal fc >> W where W is message bandwidth.

Amplitude modulation has wasteful of power. The carrier wave c(t) is completely independent of the information- Then,bearing signal m(t). Therefore, the transmission of the carrier wave is waste of power. 2. Amplitude modulation is waste of bandwidth. The upper and lower sideband of an AM wave are uniquely related each other by virtue of symmetry about the carrier frequency. Hence, given magnitude and phase spectra of either sideband, we can determine the other. These modifications naturally result in increased system complexity. Continuous Wave Modulation Amplitude Modulation (AM): Average Transmitted Power of AM : The normalized average power of an arbitrary signal x(t) is defined as _____ T /2 1 2 Pxt==2() lim xtdt () T →∞ ∫ T −T /2 Using the definition, the average transmitted power of the AM signal is 1 T /2 Pstdt= lim2 ( ) T →∞ ∫ T −T /2 5 Continuous Wave Modulation Amplitude Modulation (AM): Average Transmitted Power of AM : T /2 1 222 PAkmtftdt=+limca[] 1 ( ) cos (2π c ) T →∞ ∫ T −T /2 TT/2 /2 11222222 11 =+++++limAca 1 2kmt ( ) km a ( t ) dt lim A ca 1 2 kmt ( ) km a ( t ) cos(4π ftdt c ) TT→∞∫∫ →∞ TT−−TT/222 /2 1 Where f >> W .

  • Absorption and Wavelength Modulation Spectroscopy of NO2 Using a Tunable, External Cavity Continuous Wave Quantum Cascade Laser
    Absorption and wavelength modulation spectroscopy of NO2 using a tunable, external cavity continuous wave quantum cascade laser Andreas Karpf* and Gottipaty N. Rao Department of Physics, Adelphi University, Garden City, New York 11530, USA *Corresponding author: [email protected] Received 16 September 2008; revised 5 December 2008; accepted 9 December 2008; posted 10 December 2008 (Doc. ID 101685); published 9 January 2009 The absorption spectra and wavelength modulation spectroscopy (WMS) of NO2 using a tunable, external cavity CW quantum cascade laser operating at room temperature in the region of 1625 to 1645 cm−1 are reported. The external cavity quantum cascade laser enabled us to record continuous absorption spectra −1 of low concentrations of NO2 over a broad range (∼16 cm ), demonstrating the potential for simulta- neously recording the complex spectra of multiple species. This capability allows the identification of a particular species of interest with high sensitivity and selectivity. The measured spectra are in excellent agreement with the spectra from the high-resolution transmission molecular absorption database [J. Quant. Spectrosc. Radiat. Transfer 96, 139–204 (2005)]. We also conduct WMS for the first time using an external cavity quantum cascade laser, a technique that enhances the sensitivity of detection. By employing WMS, we could detect low-intensity absorption lines, which are not visible in the simple ab- sorption spectra, and demonstrate a minimum detection limit at the 100 ppb level with a short-path ab- sorption cell. Details of the tunable, external cavity quantum cascade laser system and its performance are discussed. © 2009 Optical Society of America OCIS codes: 000.2170, 010.1120, 120.6200, 280.3420, 300.1030, 300.6340.

  • Laser Measurement in Medical Laser Service
    Laser Measurement in Medical Laser Service By Dan Little, Technical Director, Laser Training Institute, Professional Medical Education Association, Inc. The global medical industry incorporates thousands of lasers into its arsenal of treatment tools. Wavelengths from UV to Far-Infrared are used for everything from Lasik eye surgery to cosmetic skin resurfacing. Visible wavelengths are used in dermatology and ophthalmology to target selective complementary color chromophores. Laser powers and energies are delivered through a wide range of fiber diameters, articulated arms, focusing handpieces, scanners, micromanipulators, and more. With all these variables, medical laser service personnel are faced with multiple measurement obstacles. At the Laser Training Institute (http://www.lasertraining.org), with headquarters in Columbus Ohio, we offer a week-long laser service school to medical service personnel. Four times a year, a new class learns the fundamental concepts of power and energy densities, absorption, optics, and, most of all, how lasers work. With a nice sampling of all the major types of medical lasers, the students learn hands-on calibration, alignment, and multiple service skills. Lasers used in the medical field fall under stricter safety regulations than other laser usages. Meeting ANSI compliances are critical to the continued legal operation of all medical and aesthetic facilities. Laser output powers and energies are to be checked on a semi-annual basis according to FDA Regulations and are supported by ANSI recommendations which state regular scheduled intervals. In our service school we exclusively use Ophir-Spiricon laser measurement Instrumentation. We present a graphically enhanced presentation on measurement technologies and the many, varying, critical parameters that are faced with not only each different type of laser but design differences between manufacturers.

The oscillators are designed mainly for ISM & Wi-Fi band applications using different technologies viz. 45nm, 65nm, 90nm.This paper deals with the most efficient design process of different types of oscillators using microwind 3.5. The different types of oscillators viz. Ring oscillator, voltage controlled oscillator are designed with minimum power consumption and minimum area on chip. Keywords –Microwind 3.5, Ring Oscillator, VCO, Frequency, Power Consumption. 1. INTRODUCTION Nowadays communication plays a vital role in human life and had become an integrated part of it. Communication includes transmission of signal from source to destination. We cannot transmit the message signal directly from the source to destination, as there is a need to modulate the signal before transmission. So we need a carrier signal of relatively high frequency to carry out the modulation process conveniently. This carrier signal will be generated by a device known as an oscillator. The communication process mainly consists of two phases, i.e. modulation at transmitter end and demodulation at receiver end.
