Digital Modulation and Data Transfer Sam Parrotte Joshua Young Jason Hernandez November 19th 2013
What is Digital Modulation? • Why use it? • How is it related to Embedded Systems? • Sample Forms of Digital Modulation • Ethernet Overview
Process of using an analog carrier signal to contain discrete information • Digital-to-analog modulation of data • Analog-to-digital demodulation of carrier • Analog Modulation vs. Digital Modulation • Similar: Manipulates a carrier wave to transmit data • Different: Digital has a finite number of states the carrier will be in => often known as keying What is Digital Modulation • http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fx_files/30580/1/ASK.jpg

Why Modulate Digital Information? • Demodulation techniques offer beneficial recovery abilities • Multiple parties share mediums to communicate information • Commonly shared mediums: • Cable • Air http://www.ghielectronics.com/img/www/products/381-0_small.jpg

Router Access • Send information to a server • Interact with Wifi devices • Direct communicationbetween devices • When sending high data rates • When multiple devices sharea medium • Commercial RF Product • Can’t use predesigned boards • Must understand individual components Why is this important for Embedded Systems? http://www.atmel.com/Images/Atmel-42097-WIRELESS-AT02876-REB212BSMA-Hardware-User-Manual_Application-Note.pdf
FSK - Frequency Shift Keying • Uses: • Caller ID • 3G • Dial up Modem http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fx_files/30581/1/FSK.jpg
ASK - Amplitude Shift Keying • Uses: • Optical Fiber • Laser Communication • Short distance RF http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fx_files/30580/1/ASK.jpg
PSK - Phase Shift Keying http://www.hill2dot0.com/wiki/images/thumb/3/30/MLG0013-binary-phase-shift-keying.jpg/300px-MLG0013-binary-phase-shift-keying.jpg f(t) = cos(ωt + φ) • Uses: • Cable Modem • RFID • Digital Video Broadcasting http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fx_files/30582/1/PSK.jpg
QPSK - Quadrature Phase Shift Keying http://www.st-andrews.ac.uk/~www_pa/Scots_Guide/RadCom/part19/fig6.gif
QAM - Quadrature Amplitude Modulation http://www.answers.com/topic/qam-television • 16 States • 4 Bits/Period (4^2 = 16) • Utilizes both Amplitude and phase http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:16QAM_Gray_Coded.svg
PAM - Pulse Amplitude Modulation Transmission: PAM Signal = Carrier Waveform x Digital pulses Reception: Digital Data (in pulses) = PAM Signal / Carrier Waveform • Uses: • Ethernet http://vsagar.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/image63.png
Contains twisted pairs to limit amount of induced noise • Various Ethernet types, speeds from 10 Mbit/s up to 100 Gbit/s Ethernet http://randythetechprofessor.com/do-you-have-cable-confusion http://techpubs.sgi.com/library/tpl/cgi-bin/getdoc.cgi/0650/bks/SGI_Admin/books/IA_NetwkMail/sgi_html/ch01.html
4 sets of twisted pair connections • Transmit/Receive pairs • Data sent in “packets” also called “Ethernet Frames” Overview of Ethernet http://www.iprobot.net/uncategorized/network-cables/ http://www.doc.ic.ac.uk/~nd/surprise_97/journal/vol4/mhl/giga.html
Most common Ethernet interfaces use PAM-5(10BASE-T, 100BASE-TX) • 5 voltage levels for modulation[-2, -1, 0 , 1 , 2] • 10GBASE-T uses PAM-16 (DSQ128) for modulation PAM in Ethernet http://ecee.colorado.edu/~ecen4242/ethernet/ethernet.html http://www.rwmonline.org/Metrotek/SC/s2p9_frameset.htm
Digital Modulation is the process of modulating a discrete signal in an analog one • Carrier signals are useful where a bus may not be practical or possible • Digital modulation is widely used in many forms of electromagnetic communication In Conclusion…
