Communication Systems • Reliable (electronic) exchange of information • Voice, data, video, music, email, web pages, etc • Modern era started by telegraph (S. Morse 1837) • Binary digital communications system • Transatlantic cable (US-Europe) in 1858 • Telephone was the next breakthrough (A.G. Bell 1876) • driven so many great inventions • Wireless communication (G. Marconi 1890) • Transatlantic communication • Satellite communication • Communication Networks (Bell Labs 70’s)
Communication System Block Diagram • Source encoder converts message into message signal or bits • Transmitter converts message signal or bits into format appropriate for channel transmission (analog/digital signal) • Channel introduces distortion, noise, and interference • Receiver decodes received signal back to message signal • Source decoder decodes message signal back into original message
Communication medias • Wireline (wired) • Telephony (voice, fax, modem, DSL) • Ethernet/LAN • Cable TV • Backplane copper links • Wireless (Electromagnetic) • Over the air communication • Radio and TV broadcast • WLAN • Cellular • Radar • Fiber optics • High speed long haul data communication • High traffic data transfer
Communication systems today • Public Switched Telephone Network (voice, fax, modem, DSL) • Radio and TV broadcasting • Satellite systems (TV broadcast, voice/data , pagers) • Computer networks (LANs, WANs, and the Internet) • Cellular Phones • Bluetooth/wireless devices • Sensor networks
Summary • Communication systems send information electronically over communication channels • Communication systems recreate transmitted information at receiver with high fidelity • Many different types of systems which convey many different types of information • Design challenges include hardware, system, and network issues • Focus of this class is design and performance of analog and digital communication systems
