Bandwidth-Limited Signals EETS 7304
Relation between data rate and harmonics If b is bit rate (bps) then bit duration is 1/b s Time to send 8 bits T = 8/b s. Therefore for b = 300 bps T = 8/300 = 0.02667 s = 26.67 ms. Since T is the period the first harmonic has frequency 1/T = 300/8 = 37.5 Hz. Within the bandwidth of 3000 Hz you can send 3000/37.5 = 80 harmonics. EETS 7304

Nyquist (1924) analog to digital The minimum sampling rate to recover any bandlimited signal to H Hz is 2H (samples per second). Example: assume 2400 bps 10 harmonics bandwidth 3000 Hz. T = 3.33 ms. Minimum sampling rate is 6000 samples/sec, or every 1/6 = 0.167 ms or 20 samples per period. EETS 7304
Telephone example • Subscriber loop has a bandwidth over 1 MHz. However, switching office filters every signal to 4000 Hz. Therefore, after entering a switch the analog voice is limited to 4000 Hz. Minimum sampling rate is then 8000 samples (pulses) per sec. • Pulse per sec = baud. • Since the value of every sample is represented by 8 bits a digital voice bit rate is: 8000 bauds * 8 bits/baud = 64000 bps = 64 kbps. • Inversely Nyquist theorem also says that maximum sample (pulse) rate going through the filter H that can be recovered is 2H. • In addition if max amplitude pulse is divided into V levels then the bit rate carried with 2H baud is 2H*log2V. • For example modem with 2400 bauds and V = 64 has bit rate 14,400 bps. EETS 7304
Shannon (1948) theorems • Bit rate in a noisy channel. Shannon Capacity Theorem: maximum bit rate = H log2(1 + S/N), where H - channel bandwidth, S – signal power, N – noise power. • For instance: Voice-grade line channel H = 3000 Hz and S/N = 30 dB -> S/N = 1000, therefore, maximum bit rate = 3000 log2(1001) = 30000 bps. • Definition of dB = 10 log10(S/N).

Fiber vs. copper • Repeaters: copper every 5 km vs. fiber 50 km. • 1000 twisted pairs 1 km long weights 8 Tones vs. 2 fibers with more capacity weight 100 kg. • Fiber doesn’t leak the light -> excellent security. • Fiber is much lighter to hang on the poles. • Fiber is dug about 1 m (3 ft) underground or replaces copper in ducts. • Fiber is new technology therefore more expensive parts.

The Electromagnetic Spectrum EETS 7304
Wireless bit rate With current technology it is possible to code about 8 bps/Hz of bandwidth. Examples: • Coax 750 MHz bandwidth -> 6 Gbps. • Fiber: f = c/l -> Df = cDl/l2 For l = 1.3 m band Dl= 0.17 m that gives the bandwidth Df = 40 THz to get about 300 Tbps. Two modes of transmission: • narrow band (Df/f << 1) notably frequency hopping spread spectrum (to avoid fading). • direct sequence spread spectrum. EETS 7304
Radio Transmission (a) In the VLF, LF, and MF bands, radio waves follow the curvature of the earth. (b) In the HF band, they bounce off the ionosphere. Microwave transmission uses above 100 MHz. MCI (Microwave Communications Inc.) was a long distance carrier before merged with WorldCom. EETS 7304
The ISM bands in the United States Radio spectrum is owned by governments or FCC in US. FCC allocates the spectrum while governments sell it to carriers on auctions. Some spectrum is left unsold for unlicensed use. Bluetooth and WiFi WiFi ISM (Industrial, Scientific, Medical) are not allocated but limited by distance like garage door openers, cordless phones, radio controlled toys etc.It is mandated by power < 1 W.

Major Components of the Telephone System • Local loops: analog twisted pairs going to houses and businesses: the weakest link. • Trunks: digital fiber optics connecting the switching offices. Three different way of multiplexing: frequency, time, and wavelength. • Switching offices: where calls are moved from one trunk to another. Types of switching: circuit switching vs. packet switching. EETS 7304
The Politics of Telephones 1984 US was divided into 164 LATAs (Local Access and Transport Area equivalent to an area code). BOC has monopoly by its ILECs (Incumbent Local Exchange Carrier) within LATA. AT&T (IXC#1) and competitors (IXC#2) use IXCs (IntereXchange Carrier) for traffic between LATAs. Long Distance carrier also must build IXC POP switches at each LATA to connect it to IXC. BOCs are required to connect to each IXC POP. 1996 interference was allowed. EETS 7304
Present day Internet POP – Point Of Presence are ISP (e.g. AOL) modems connected to Regional ISP network. Regional ISP network is connected to the backbone. Backbones are connected by NAP (Network Access Point) or by their own routers. Finally Server Farm (multiplicity of identical servers) are connected to the router. EETS 7304
