  1. 4-2 ANALOG-TO-DIGITAL CONVERSION We have seen in Chapter 3 that a digital signal is superior to an analog signal. The tendency today is to change an analog signal to digital data. In this section we describe two techniques, pulse code modulation and delta modulation. Topics discussed in this section: Pulse Code Modulation (PCM)Delta Modulation (DM)

  2. Figure 4.21 Components of PCM encoder

  3. Figure 4.22 Three different sampling methods for PCM

  4. Note The sampling rate must be at least 2 times the highest frequency contained in the signal. (Nyquist theorem)

  5. Figure 4.24 Recovery of a sampled sine wave for different sampling rates

  6. Example 4.9 Q. Telephone companies digitize voice by assuming a maximum frequency of 4000 Hz. What’s the minimum sampling rate? Solution. The sampling rate is 8000 samples per second.

  7. Example 4.10 A complex low-pass signal has a bandwidth of 200 kHz. What is the minimum sampling rate for this signal? Solution The bandwidth of a low-pass signal is between 0 and f, where f is the maximum frequency in the signal. Therefore, we can sample this signal at 2 times the highest frequency (200 kHz). The sampling rate is therefore 400,000 samples per second.

  8. Example 4.11 A complex bandpass signal has a bandwidth of 200 kHz. What is the minimum sampling rate for this signal? Solution We cannot find the minimum sampling rate in this case because we do not know where the bandwidth starts or ends. We do not know the maximum frequency in the signal.

  9. Figure 4.26 Quantization and encoding of a sampled signal

  10. M quantization levels: m=log2(M) bits for level M↑ => better precision , more bits per sample  M↓ => poor precision , fewer bits per sample 

  11. Example. If we use 8 bits per sample, how many different quantization levels are allowed? 28=256 levels

  12. Figure 4.27 Components of a PCM decoder

  13. Quantization Error By quantizing the PAM signal, the original signal is now only approximated and cannot be 100% recovered SNR ratio due to quantizing noise can be expressed as

  14. Example 4.12 What is the SNRdB if we use 8 levels of quantization? Solution We have eight levels and 3 bits per sample, so SNRdB = 6.02*3 + 1.76 = 19.82 dB Increasing the number of levels increases the SNR.

  15. Example 4.13 A telephone subscriber line must have an SNRdB above 40. What is the minimum number of bits per sample? Solution We can calculate the number of bits as SNRdB = 6.02*m + 1.76 = 40dB, m=6.35 Telephone companies usually assign 7 or 8 bits per sample.

  16. Example 4.14 We want to digitize the human voice which contains frequencies from 0 to 4000 Hz. What is the minimal bit rate, assuming 8 bits per sample? Solution So the minimal sampling rate and bit rate are calculated as follows:

  17. Figure 4.29 Delta modulation/demodulation components

  18. Figure 4.28 The process of delta modulation

  19. DM – most popular alternative to PCM - analog signal is approximated by staircase function - only a single binary digit is required for each sample! Delta-modulation rule: smaller d => smaller T larger d => larger T

  20. 4-3 TRANSMISSION MODES The transmission of binary data across a link can be accomplished in either parallel or serial mode. In parallel mode, multiple bits are sent with each clock tick. In serial mode, 1 bit is sent with each clock tick. While there is only one way to send parallel data, there are three subclasses of serial transmission: asynchronous, synchronous, and isochronous. Topics discussed in this section: Parallel TransmissionSerial Transmission

  21. Figure 4.31 Data transmission and modes

  22. Figure 4.32 Parallel transmission

  23. Figure 4.33 Serial transmission

  24. Note In asynchronous transmission, we send 1 start bit (0) at the beginning and 1 or more stop bits (1s) at the end of each byte. There may be a gap between each byte.

  25. Note Asynchronous here means “asynchronous at the byte level,” but the bits are still synchronized; their durations are the same.

  26. Figure 4.34 Asynchronous transmission

  27. Note In synchronous transmission, we send bits one after another without start or stop bits or gaps. It is the responsibility of the receiver to group the bits.

  28. Figure 4.35 Synchronous transmission

  29. Homework We have sampled a low-pass signal with a bandwidth of 200 KHz using 1024 levels of PCM quantization. 1. Calculate the minimal bit rate of the digitized signal. 2. Calculate the SNRdB for this signal.
