Baseband versus Carrier Communication
• Modulation is a process that moves signal into aspecific frequency band
Dr. Sarmad Ullah Khan
specific frequency band• The bandwidth B represents a measure of frequency
range.• It is typically measured in Hz with 1 Hz = 1/sec.• The bandwidth of a signal indicates the frequency
range in which the signal‘s Fourier transform has ag gpower above a certain threshold (typically half ofthe maximum power)

Baseband versus Carrier Communication
• Communication systems that do not use modulationare called baseband communication

are called baseband communication• Communication systems that use modulation are
called carrier communication• Baseband is original message frequency band• In telephony, baseband is audio band (0 – 3.5 kHz)• In NTSC television, video baseband is 0 – 4.3 MHzIn NTSC television, video baseband is 0 4.3 MHz

Baseband versus Carrier Communication
• Carrier CommunicationModulation techniques is used to shift the frequency
Dr. Sarmad Ullah Khan
Modulation techniques is used to shift the frequencyspectrum of message signal
Modulation changes one of the basic parameter of carriersignal (Amplitude, Frequency, Phase)
Carrier signal is a sinusoidal signal of high frequency fc
Parameter variation is proportional to message signal m(t)Amplitude modulation is linearAmplitude modulation is linearFrequency and Phase modulations are non linearsPAM, PWM, PPM, PCM and DM are baseband signals

• Single Sideband (SSB) Modulation– Two methods are generally used to generate SSB
Dr. Sarmad Ullah Khan
Two methods are generally used to generate SSBsignals
1) Sharp cutoff filters
2) Phase shifting networks– In Sharp cutoff method, the DSB-SC signal is passed
through a sharp cutoff filter to eliminate the undesiredsidebandsideband
– To obtain USB, the filter should pass all componentsabove wc, attenuated and completely suppress allcomponents below wc
– Such an operation requires an ideal filter that ispractically not possible
75
Bandwidth Efficient Amplitude Modulation
• Single Sideband (SSB) ModulationThi th d f ti SSB i l b d
Dr. Sarmad Ullah Khan
– This method of generating SSB signal can be usedwhen there is some separation between the passbandand stopband
– In some application this can be achieved e.g. voicesignals
– Voice signals spectrum shows little power content atth i i Th filt i th t d id b d ithe origin. Thus filtering the unwanted sideband isrelatively easy
76
Tests have shown that frequency components below 300Hz are not important.
600Hz transition region around the cutoff frequency wc , makes filtering easy and minimize the channel interference

• Quadrature Amplitude ModulationBoth modulated signals occupy the same band
Dr. Sarmad Ullah Khan
– Both modulated signals occupy the same band– At the receiver the two baseband signals can be separated
by using a second carrier that is shifted in phase by –/2– The first signal m1(t) can be detected by a multiplication
with 2cos(ct) followed by a low-pass filter– The second signal m2(t) can be detected accordingly by a
multiplication with sin( t) followed by a low-pass filtermultiplication with sin(ct) followed by a low pass filter

It combines the advantages of DSB and SSB while avoiddisadvantages at small cost
• Its generation is relatively easy and bandwidth requirement is25% greater than SSB

• If vestigial shaping filter produce VBS from DSB is Hi(f), Itsspectrum will bespectrum will be
• VBS filter allows transmission of one sideband but suppressother side band gradually, NOT completely
