Bipolar schemes: AMI (Alternate Mark Inversion) and pseudoternary

Multilevel Schemes

• In mBnL schemes, a pattern of m data elements is encoded as a pattern of n signal elements in which 2m ≤ Ln

• m: the length of the binary pattern• B: binary data• n: the length of the signal pattern• L: number of levels in the signaling

Table 4.1 Summary of line coding schemes

Block Coding

• Redundancy is needed to ensure synchronization and to provide error detecting

• Block coding is normally referred to as mB/nB coding

• it replaces each m-bit group with an n-bit group

• m < n

Table 4.2 4B/5B mapping codes

Scrambling

• It modifies the bipolar AMI encoding (no DC component, but having the problem of synchronization)

• It does not increase the number of bits• It provides synchronization• It uses some specific form of bits to

replace a sequence of 0s

Figure 4.21 Components of PCM encoder

According to the Nyquist theorem, the sampling rate must be at least 2 times the highest frequency contained in the signal.

What can we get from this:

1. we can sample a signal only if the signal is

band-limited

2. the sampling rate must be at least 2 times the

highest frequency, not the bandwidth

Figure 4.26 Quantization and encoding of a sampled signal

What is the SNRdB in the example of Figure 4.26?SolutionWe have eight levels and 3 bits per sample, so

SNRdB = 6.02 x 3 + 1.76 = 19.82 dB

Increasing the number of levels increases the SNR.

Contribution of the quantization error to SNRdb

SNRdb= 6.02nb + 1.76 dBnb: bits per sample (related to the number of level L)

We have a low-pass analog signal of 4 kHz. If we send the analog signal, we need a channel with a minimum bandwidth of 4 kHz. If we digitize the signal and send 8 bits per sample, we need a channel with a minimum bandwidth of 8 × 4 kHz = 32 kHz.

The minimum bandwidth of the digital signal is nb times greater than the bandwidth of the analog signal.

Bmin= nb x Banalog

DM (delta modulation) finds the change from the previous sampleNext bit is 1, if amplitude of the analog signal is largerNext bit is 0, if amplitude of the analog signal is smaller

QAM – Quadrature Amplitude Modulation

• Modulation technique used in the cable/video networking world

• Instead of a single signal change representing only 1 bps – multiple bits can be represented by a single signal change

• Combination of phase shifting and amplitude shifting (8 phases, 2 amplitudes)

The total bandwidth required for AM can be determined from the bandwidth of the audio signal: BAM = 2B.

Figure 5.20 Phase modulation

The total bandwidth required for PM can be determined from the bandwidth and maximum amplitude of the modulating signal:BPM = 2(1 + β)B.

WDM is an analog multiplexing technique to combine optical signals.

Figure 6.12 TDM

1. TDM is a digital multiplexing technique for combining several low-rate channels into one high-rate one.

2. Two types: synchronous and statistical

Figure 6.13 Synchronous time-division multiplexing

1. In synchronous TDM, each input connection has an allotment in the output even if it is not sending data.

2. In synchronous TDM, the data rate of the link is n times faster, and the unit duration is n times shorter.

Figure 6.17 Example 6.9

SolutionFigure 6.17 shows the output for four arbitrary inputs. The link carries 50,000 frames per second. The frame duration is therefore 1/50,000 s or 20 μs. The frame rate is 50,000 frames per second, and each frame carries 8 bits; the bit rate is 50,000 × 8 = 400,000 bits or 400 kbps. The bit duration is 1/400,000 s, or 2.5 μs.
