Introduction
Communication is a process of transferring information from one entity to another.
Communication processes are sign-mediated interactions between at least two agents
which share a repertoire of signs and semiotic rules. Communication is commonly
defined as "the imparting or interchange of thoughts, opinions, or information by
speech, writing, or signs". Communication can be perceived as a two-way process in
which there is an exchange and progression of thoughts, feelings towards a mutually
accepted goal or direction. Communication is a process whereby information is
enclosed in a package and is discrete and imparted by sender to a receiver via a
channel/medium. The receiver then decodes the message and gives the sender a
feedback. Communication requires that all parties have an area of communicative
commonality. There are auditory means, such as speaking, singing and sometimes
tone of voice, and nonverbal, physical means, such as body language, sign language,
paralanguage, touch, eye contact, by using writing. Communication is thus a process
by which we assign and convey meaning in an attempt to create shared understanding.
This process requires a vast repertoire of skills in intra personal and interpersonal
processing, listening, observing, speaking, questioning, analyzing, and evaluating

Digital Communication
Data transmission, digital transmission or digital communications is the physical
transfer of data (a digital bit stream) over a point-to-point or point-to-multipoint
transmission medium. Examples of such media are copper wires, optical fibers,
wireless communication media, and storage media. The data is often represented as an
electro-magnetic signal, such as an electrical voltage signal, a radiowave or
microwave signal or an infra-red signal. While analog communications represents a
continuously varying signal by a continuously varying signal, a digital transmission
can be broken down into discrete messages. The messages are either represented by a
sequence of pulses by means of a line code (baseband transmission), or by a limited
set of analogue wave forms (passband transmission), using a digital modulation
method. According to the most common definition of digital signal, both baseband
and passband signals representing bit-streams are considered as digital transmission,
while an alternative definition only considers the baseband signal as digital, and the
passband transmission as a form of digital-to-analog conversion.

Data transmitted may be digital messages originating from a data source, for example
a computer or a keyboard. It may also be an analog signal such as a phone call or a
video signal, digitized into a bit-stream for example using pulse-code modulation
(PCM) or more advanced source coding (data compression) schemes. This source
coding and decoding is carried out by codec equipment.
Asynchronous and Synchronous Data Transmission
Asynchronous transmission uses start and stop bits to signify the beginning bit ASCII
character would actually be transmitted using 10 bits e.g.: A "0100 0001" would
become "1 0100 0001 0". The extra one (or zero depending on parity bit) at the start
and end of the transmission tells the receiver first that a character is coming and
secondly that the character has ended. This method of transmission is used when data
are sent intermittently as opposed to in a solid stream. In the previous example the
start and stop bits are in bold. The start and stop bits must be of opposite polarity.
This allows the receiver to recognize when the second packet of information is being
sent.
Synchronous transmission uses no start and stop bits but instead synchronizes
transmission speeds at both the receiving and sending end of the transmission using
clock signals built into each component. A continual stream of data is then sent
between the two nodes. Due to there being no start and stop bits the data transfer rate
is quicker although more errors will occur, as the clocks will eventually get out of
sync, and the receiving device would have the wrong time that had been agreed in
protocol (computing) for sending/receiving data, so some bytes could become
corrupted (by losing bits). Ways to get around this problem include resynchronization of the clocks and use of check digits to ensure the byte is correctly
interpreted and received.
Digital Modulation:
Modulation is the process of varying one waveform in relation to another waveform.
In telecommunications, modulation is used to convey a message, or a musician may
modulate the tone from a musical instrument by varying its volume, timing and pitch.
Often a high-frequency sinusoid waveform is used as carrier signal to convey a lower
frequency signal. The three key parameters of a sine wave are its amplitude
("volume"), its phase ("timing") and its frequency ("pitch"), all of which can be
modified in accordance with a low frequency information signal to obtain the
modulated signal.
A device that performs modulation is known as a modulator and a device that
performs the inverse operation of modulation is known as a demodulator (sometimes
detector or demod). A device that can do both operations is a modem(short form
"Modulator-Demodulator").
Scientech 2137
In the case of QAM, a finite number of at least two phases and at least two
amplitudes are used.
In QAM, an inphase signal (the I signal, for example a cosine waveform) and a
quadrature phase signal (the Q signal, for example a sine wave) are amplitude
modulated with a finite number of amplitudes, and summed. It can be seen as a twochannel system, each channel using ASK. The resulting signal is equivalent to a
combination of PSK and ASK.
In all of the above methods, each of these phases, frequencies or amplitudes are
assigned a unique pattern of binary bits. Usually, each phase, frequency or amplitude
encodes an equal number of bits. This number of bits comprises the symbol that is
represented by the particular phase.
If the alphabet consists of M = 2N alternative symbols, each symbol represents a
message consisting of N bits. If the symbol rate (also known as the baud rate) is fS
symbols/second (or baud), the data rate is NfS bit/second.
For example, with an alphabet consisting of 16 alternative symbols, each symbol
represents 4 bits. Thus, the data rate is four times the baud rate.
In the case of PSK, ASK or QAM, where the carrier frequency of the modulated
signal is constant, the modulation alphabet is often conveniently represented on a
constellation diagram, showing the amplitude of the I signal at the x-axis, and the
amplitude of the Q signal at the Y-axis, for each symbol.
Modulator and Demodulator principles of operation PSK and ASK, and sometimes
also FSK, are often generated and detected using the principle of QAM. The I and Q
signals can be combined into a complex-valued signal I+jQ (where j is the imaginary
unit). The resulting so called equivalent lowpass signal or equivalent baseband signal
is a complex-valued representation of the real-valued modulated physical signal (the
so called passband signal or RF signal).
Scientech 2137
These are the general steps used by the modulator to transmit data:
1.
Group the incoming data bits into codeword, one for each symbol that will be
transmitted.
2.
Map the codewords to attributes, for example amplitudes of the I and Q signals
(the equivalent low pass signal), or frequency or phase values.
3.
Adapt pulse shaping or some other filtering to limit the bandwidth and form the
spectrum of the equivalent low pass signal, typically using digital signal
processing.

Pass the resultant bit stream on for further processing such as removal of any
error-correcting codes.
As is common to all digital communication systems, the design of both the modulator
and demodulator must be done simultaneously. Digital modulation schemes are
possible because the transmitter-receiver pair have prior knowledge of how data is
encoded and represented in the communications system. In all digital communication
systems, both the modulator at the transmitter and the demodulator at the receiver are
structured so that they perform inverse operations.
Non-coherent modulation methods do not require a receiver reference clock signal
that is phase synchronized with the sender carrier wave. In this case, modulation
symbols (rather than bits, characters, or data packets) are asynchronously transferred.
The opposite is coherent modulation.
Synchronization:
The demodulation techniques in digital communication are classified into coherent
and non- coherent methods. Coherent detection and demodulation requires the
utilization of synchronization systems that extract carrier phase and frequency
information from the received signal. Phase and frequency are two parameters used
by synchronization systems, such as Phase-Locked Loops (PLL) to acquire, track and
synchronize to the carrier of the received signal. Costas Loop is a form of phaselocked loop used for carrier phase recovery.
The Costas Loop is a synchronization system that could be analyzed as two PLLs that
operate in phase quadrature to each other (i.e an upper PLL with Cosine NCO signal
and a lower PLL with a Sine NCO signal). Consequently, the operation of any Costas
Loop system is influenced by the operation of these two PLLs to a great extent.
The components of the system are the Arm Filters, the Loop Filter, three multipliers
that are referred as Phase Detectors, and a Numerical-Controlled Oscillator (NCO).
The Costas Loop is able to obtain the phase and frequency information of the
modulated carrier. Then achieve phase tracking, acquisition and synchronization to
this extracted carrier while demodulating and extracting the data contained in the
received signal.
10
Scientech 2137
The incoming signal is multiplied with the cosine and the sine signal generated from
the NCO. The output of the multiplier contains high ( fin + f nco ) and low ( fin f nco )
frequency components. The high frequency components are filtered out by the low
pass filters (called as Arm filters). The outputs of the Arm filters are again multiplied
to get a signal, which consists of the error (frequency difference) component. The
output of the third multiplier is passed throupgh another narrow band low pass filter
(called Loop filter) to filter out any noise components present and to obtain a value
proportional to the error component. This value is used to change and adjust the NCO
signal frequency and phase so that the error value is minimized. When the NCO phase
and frequency is equal to that of the incoming signal, the loop is said to be locked and
the output of the upper and lower arm filters gives the I and Q components of the
symbol.
Applications of Costas Loop:
In addition to demodulating double-sideband suppressed-carrier AM signals, Costas
Loops are used to demodulate BPSK, QPSK, 8-PSK, OQPSK, FSK, and FM signals.
This characteristic of the Costas Loop makes it suitable for many applications such as
satellite communications, spread spectrum, and CDMA (used in cellular telephone
communications).

Demodulation Techniques
This section presents a discussion of carrier recovery problem in demodulation and a
review of different demodulation techniques available for QAM signals.
Carrier Recovery:
Usually, the generation of modulated signals is quite easy; the same is not true for the
receiving side where it is necessary to rebuild the parameters very precisely the
parameters utilized during transmission Generally, the receivers are subdivided in two
categories: coherent receivers and non-coherent receivers. Non-coherent receivers
dont need the knowledge of the frequency and the phase of the carrier. However in
the case of angular modulations it is not possible to use a non-coherent detector
because the information is carried by the frequency and phase. Because of that, a
correct coherent demodulation needs a precise synchronization between the oscillator
of the receiver and the one of the transmitter. This process is known as carrier
recovery, has been solved through different techniques and is still subject of study to
continue improving the performances of the systems and to allow communications.
Some of the demodulation techniques are

Amplitude-Shift Keying (ASK) or Binary Digital Amplitude Modulation
(BDAM) or On Off Keying (OOK) is a form of modulation that represents digital
data as variations in the amplitude of a carrier wave. The amplitude of an analog
carrier signal varies in accordance with the bit stream (modulating signal), keeping
frequency and phase constant. The level of amplitude can be used to represent binary
logic 0s and 1s. We can think of a carrier signal as an ON or OFF switch. In the
modulated signal, logic 0 is represented by the absence of a carrier, thus giving
OFF/ON keying operation and hence the name given. Mathematically ASK is given

example, if we start a phase of 0deg. to represent binary 1, then we can change the
phase to 180deg. to send binary 0. The phase of the signal during each bit duration is
constant, and its value depends on the bit (0 or 1).

Differential Encoding Is used to provide polarity reversal protection Bit streams
going through the many communications circuits in the channel can be unintentionally inverted. Most signal processing circuits can not tell if the whole stream
is inverted. This is also called phase ambiguity. Differential Encoding is used to
protect against this possibility. It is one of the simplest form of error protection coding
done on a baseband sequence prior to modulation Then the phase of the carrier is

Quadrature Phase Shift Keying (QPSK ) or, involves the splitting of a data stream
mk (t)=m0,m1,m2, . . ., into an in-phase stream or Even data mI (t) = m0,m2,m4, . . .
and a quadrature stream or Odd data mQ(t) = m1,m3,m5, . . .. Both the streams have
half the bit rate of the data stream mk(t), and modulate the cosine and sine functions
of a carrier wave simultaneously. As a result, phase changes across intervals of 2Tb,
where Tb is the time interval of a single bit (the mk(t)s). The phase transitions can be
as large as 180. Sudden phase reversals of 180 can throw the amplifiers into
saturation. As shown in Figure 1, the phase reversals of 180 cause the envelope to go
to zero momentarily. This may make us susceptible to non-linearity in amplifier
circuitry. The above may be prevented using linear amplifiers but they are more
expensive and power consuming. A solution to the above mentioned problem is the
use of OQPSK. The two bit streams generated from 1/2bit encoding technique are
used as I channel data and Q channel data respectively for modulation of Cosine and
Sine wave.

Theory:
Differential Phase Shift Keying (DPSK) is a common form of phase modulation that
conveys data by changing the phase of the carrier wave. As mentioned for BPSK and
QPSK there is an ambiguity of phase if the constellation is rotated by some effect in
the communications channel through which the signal passes. This problem can be
overcome by using the data to change rather than set the phase.
For example, in differentially-encoded BPSK a binary '1' may be transmitted by
adding 180 to the current phase and a binary '0' by adding 0 to the current phase. In
differentially-encoded QPSK, the phase-shifts are 0, 90, 180, -90 corresponding to
data '00', '01', '11', '10'.

Equipment Needed:

2.
Theory:
Offset Quadrature Pase-Shift Keying (OQPSK) is a variant of Phase-Shift Keying
modulation using 4 different values of the phase to transmit. It is sometimes called
Staggered Quadrature Phase-Shift Keying (SQPSK).Taking four values of the phase
(two bits) at a time to construct a QPSK symbol can allow the phase of the signal to
jump by as much as 180 at a time. When the signal is low-pass filtered (as is typical
in a transmitter), these phase-shifts result in large amplitude fluctuations, an
undesirable quality in communication systems. By offsetting the timing of the odd
and even bits by one bit-period, or half a symbol-period, the in-phase and quadrature
components will never change at the same time. In the constellation diagram shown
on the right, it can be seen that this will limit the phase-shift to no more than 90 at a
time. This yields much lower amplitude fluctuations than non-offset QPSK and is
sometimes preferred in practice.
The picture on the right shows the difference in the behavior of the phase between
ordinary QPSK and OQPSK. It can be seen that in the first plot the phase can change
by 180 at once, while in OQPSK the changes are never greater than 90.

Receiver: The incoming modulated signal is multiplied with the cosine and the sine
signal generated from the NCO. The output of the multiplier contains high

components are filtered out by the low pass filters (called as Arm filters). The output
of low pass filter will resemble the input data for modulation on I and Q channel. with
the help of thresh hold detector(decoder) input signal is received on I and Q channel
of demodulator. Then this data form I and Q channel is give to parallel to serial

Equipment Needed:

Theory:
/4 QPSK is variant of QPSK uses two identical constellations which are rotated by
45 (/4 radians, hence the name) with respect to one another. Usually, either the even
or odd symbols are used to select points from one of the constellations or the other
symbols select points from the other constellation. This also reduces the phase-shifts
from a maximum of 180, but only to a maximum of 135.
One property this modulation scheme possesses is that if the modulated signal is
represented in the complex domain, it does not have any paths through the origin. In
other words, the signal does not pass through the origin. This lowers the dynamical
range of fluctuations in the signal which is desirable when engineering
communications signals.

Theory:
In digital modulation, Minimum-Shift Keying (MSK) is a type of Continuous-Phase
Frequency-Shift Keying(CPFSK). Similar to OQPSK, MSK is encoded with bits
alternating between quaternary components, with the Q component delayed by half
the symbol period. However, instead of square pulses as OQPSK uses, MSK encodes
each bit as a half sinusoid. This results in a constant-modulus signal, which reduces
problems caused by non-linear distortion. In addition to being viewed as related to
OQPSK, MSK can also be viewed as a continuous phase frequency shift keyed
(CPFSK) signal with a frequency separation of one-half the bit rate.
The resulting signal is represented by the formula
c(t ) = a1 (t ) sin
2T
t cos t + aq (t ) sin
