COM413 – Principles of Communication

Ways in which electronic communication are classified:  FULL DUPLEX

- People communicating with one another over the
According to the transmission modes: telephone can talk and listen simultaneously.
- Transmission can occur in both directions at the same
TYPE / MODES OF ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATIONS time.

1. SIMPLEX
- is the simplest way in which electronic communication is
conducted is one-way communications.
- information travels in one direction only.

 FULL/FULL DUPLEX
- it is possible to transmit and receive simultaneously
but not necessarily between the same locations.

According to the type of intelligence signal transmitted.

2. DUPLEX – is the bulk of electronic communication is two-way. TYPES OF INTELLIGENCE

 HALF DUPLEX 1. ANALOG SIGNAL – is a smoothly and continuously varying voltage or

- is the form of two-way communication in which only current.
one party transmit at a time.
- transmissions can occur in both directions but not
at the same time.

2. DIGITAL SIGNAL – do not vary continuously but change in steps or in

discrete increments.

According to the transmitted signal  PHASE MODULATION (PM)
- when the amount of phase shift of a constant-frequency
BASEBAND SIGNAL carrier is varied in accordance with a modulating signal.
- information is transmitted directly over the medium.
- is the original voice, video or digital signal’s directly into the medium. TYPES OF PULSE MODULATION
MODULATED SIGNAL  AMPLITUDE-SHIFT KEYING (ASK)
- is the modulated carrier is amplified and sent to the antenna for  FREQUENCY-SHIFT KEYING (FSK)
transmission.
 PHASE-SHIFT KEYING (PSK)
 QUADRATURE AMPLITUDE MODULATION (QAM)
MODULATION
- is the process of impressing low-frequency information signals MODULATION AT THE TRANSMITTER
onto a high-frequency carrier signal.
- systematic alteration of a carrier wave in accordance with the
message.

TYPES OF MODULATION

1. CONTINUOUS WAVE MODULATION

- is the carrier wave is simply sinusoidal waveform.

2. PULSE MODULATION
- is the carrier is a periodic train of pulses.

TYPES OF CONTINUOUS WAVE MODULATION

TYPES OF CONTINUOUS WAVE MODULATION
1. AMPLITUDE MODULATION (AM)
- is the process of changing the amplitude of a relatively high
frequency carrier signal in proportion with the instantaneous
value of the modulating signal.

2. ANGLE MODULATION
- is an analog modulation scheme in which the angle of a
relatively high-frequency carrier signal is varied in
accordance with the instantaneous amplitude of an
information signal.

TWO CLASSIFICATIONS OF ANGLE MODULATION

 FREQUENCY MODULATION (FM)

- is a system in which the amplitude of the modulated
carrier is kept constant, while its frequency and rate of
change are varied by the modulating signal.

TYPES OF PULSE MODULATION MULTIPLEXING AT THE TRANSMITTER

MODULATION AT THE RECEIVER MULTIPLEXING AT THE RECEIVER

MULTIPLEXING
- is the process of allowing two or more signals to share the same
medium or channel.

THREE BASIC TYPES OF MULTIPLEXING

1. FREQUENCY-DIVISION MULTIPLEXING (FDM)

- is the intelligence signals modulate subcarriers that are
then added together, and the composite signal is used to
modulate the carrier.

2. TIME-DIVISION MULTIPLEXING (TDM)

- is the multiple intelligence signals are sequentially
sampled, and a small piece of each is used to modulate the
carrier.

3. CODE-DIVISION MULTIPLEXING (CDM)

- is the signals to be transmitted are converted to digital
data that is then uniquely coded with a faster binary code.
