Simulation of an Optical Fiber Point to Point Communication link using Simulink By Nihal Shastry Uday Madireddy Nitin Ravi
Overview of Project • Current scenario • Where our project fits in • Comparison of modulation techniques QAM MPSK EXTERNAL MODULATION • Applications • Future scope
What is QAM? • QAM can be the expanded as Quadrature Amplitude Modulation • A popular digital modulation technique in which both phase and amplitude are varied • It was basically developed to overcome constraints of complex AM or PM • It can transmit more bits per second • It also makes use of minimum Bandwidth
Phase Shift Keying • Principle - Changes the phase of the carrier in step with the digital message. • Use of a different phase for a “0” and a “1”. • A “1” signal is denoted by φ1. • A “0” signal is denoted by φ1 + 180°. • Quaternary Phase shift keying • Binary inputs – 00, 01, 10, 11 • QPSK output phase -- 0°, 90°, 180°, 270°. • Differential Phase Shift Keying • Information obtained as the difference in phase between two successive signals. • Modulating signal is not the binary code but the code that records the changes in the binary code.
Optical communication link – QPSK modulation • QPSK- Quadrature / Quaternary Phase Shift Keying • Digital modulation technique • M-ary Encoding technique where M = 4 • 4 different input conditions, 4 output phases possible for a single carrier frequency.
QPSK • Four phases:- 0°, 90°, 180°, 270°. • Two symbols per bit can be transmitted (00, 01, 10, 11). • Each symbol’s phase compared with respect to the previous symbol.
External Modulation • Currently preferred over any other form of modulation • Done using an MZIM • Phase difference produced in the beam
HEAD TO HEAD • QAM: • Digital information contained in both amplitude and phase of the transmitted carrier • Susceptible to interfering signals • Greater bandwidth efficiency. More bits transferred(4bits/cycle) • QPSK: • Digital information - phase of the transmitted signal. • Easy to implement and has good resistance to noise. • In the receiver end local oscillator to be tuned to the I/P signal. • Oscillator experiences drift in freq and phase and hence tuning is tough • Overcome by sending a pilot wave for synchronization • Bandwidth Efficiency is around 2 bits per cycle. • DPSK: • Simple to implement • Larger data transmission capability (40 Gbits/Sec) • Has maximum transmission distance when compared to other schemes.
Applications • Can be used for simulating theoretical systems inexpensively • Any distance, bit rate and data pulse can be simulated • All parameters are completely user defined • Completely customizable
