Aim: To design and set up a pulse code modulator.

Components and equipments required: Op-amps, ICs 4016, 7408, 7404, 311, 741, 7493, resistors,

signal generator, DC source, bread board and CRO.

Theory:

In the PCM circuit the input analog signal is regularly sampled at uniform intervals and

quantized rst and each quantized level is represented by a code number. It has excellent advantages

compared to PAM and PWM. The PCM circuit gives the binary code corresponding to the input

samples.

The sampling of the input analog signal is done by the PAM circuit. Clock frequency is

selected satisfying sampling theorem. DAC output and sampled output are compared by 311 IC. As

long as the sampled output is high, comparator output remains high and the counting progresses.

PCM is used in digital telephone systems and for digital audio in computers. Two limitations

of PCM are aliasing error and quantization error.

Procedure:

1. Verify the conditions of ICs and other discrete components and setup the circuit.

2. Observe the PCM output on the CRO screen.

Delta Modulation

Aim: To design, set up and study a delta modulator circuit.

Components and equipments required: Op-amps, 7474 IC, resistors. capacitors, signal generator,

DC supplies, bread board and CRO.

Theory:

Delta modulation (DM) is a differential PCM scheme in which the difference signal is

encoded into a single bit. This single bit is transmitted per sample to indicate whether the signal is

larger or smaller than the previous sample. Circuit for delta modulation is shown in gure. The

modulating signal m(t) and its quantized approximation _____

)(tm are applied to the comparator.

Comparator provides a high level output when m(t) > _____

)(tm and it provides low level output when

m(t) < _____

)(tm .

The LM 311 chip is used in the circuit as the comparator. The output of the comparator is fed

to a sample and hold circuit made by a D ip op. The clock frequency to ip flop is selected at the

sampling rate. Pulses at the output of D ip flop are made bipolar by an op-amp comparator. Bipolar

pulses are converted to analog signal before feeding to the comparator using a RC low pass filter.

Procedure:

1. Verify the conditions of ICs and other discrete components.

2. Set up the circuit. Feed an input signal of 5 V, 200 Hz sine wave to the input. Set the clock frequency at 2 kHz.

3. Observe the DM output and Vo simultaneously on the CRO screen.

Design:

Let the input signal amplitude = 5 V and frequency = 200 Hz i.e.., m(t) = 5 sin 400t Maximum slope of m(t) = 2fA = 2200x5

To avoid slope over load error, slope of _____

)(tm should be more than that of m(t).

VCC/RC > Emm VCC/RC > 2fA = 2200x5 Selecting Vcc = 15 V and C = 0.01 F, we get R < 228 k. Take R = 1 k.

Threshold voltage VT = VR2 = 1.35 V

R2 + R1

R2 Vcc= l.35 V Take R2= l k. Then R1= 10k.

Binary Amplitude Shift Keying (BASK) and Demodulator

Aim: To design and set up an Amplitude Shift Keying (ASK) generator and demodulator.

Components and equipments required: DC sources, CRO, bread board, signal generator, op-amp,

transistor, capacitors, potentiometer and resistors.

Theory:

The modulation process of switching the amplitude, frequency or phase of the carrier in

accordance with the message data are called Amplitude Shift Keying, Frequency Shift Keying and

Phase Shift Keying respectively. In ASK system the carrier frequency is switched between two preset

amplitudes according to the binary input. When the input is at logic 1, a finite number of cycles of a

sinusoidal signal are granted and when the input is at logic 0, same numbers of cycles of sinusoidal

signal having different amplitude are generated.

Referring the circuit diagram, the two switches in the analog multiplexer IC 4016 are used to

multiplex two signals. Input to one of the switches is a sinusoidal signal with peak amplitude 5 V.

This signal is applied to a voltage divider circuit. The resistors are chosen such that Vout = Vin.

Choose R1= R2 = 1k and amplitude is reduced by half (2.5 V). When the modulating signal is at

logic 1, 5 Vpp sine wave appears at the output and when the modulating signal is at logic 0, 2.5 Vpp

sine wave appears at the output.

Demodulator can be set up by an envelope detector and a comparator. Comparator gives

either high or low output according to the amplitude of the signal at the inverting terminal. The

circuit consists of diode and RC network that picks the amplitude variations and 324 op-amp

functions as a comparator. Capacitor charges to the positive peaks of sine wave half cycle through

diode and discharges through R. Before discharging fully, next peak appears and capacitor charges

further the obtained low frequency signal is converted to a square wave by the comparator.

Potentiometer is used to adjust the reference voltage. BASK is susceptible to noise because it does

not have constant amplitudes.

Procedure:

1. Set up the circuit part by part and verify the functions.



2. Join both the circuits and feed a square wave of low frequency at the input and observe the

ASK output on CRO.

3. Set up the demodulator circuit and feed the ASK signal to its input and observe demodulated

output.

Experiment No. 4

Binary Frequency Shift Keying (BFSK)

Aim: To design and set up a Binary Frequency Shift Keying (BFSK) generator.

Components and equipments required: DC sources, CRO, bread board, signal generators and

resistors.

Theory:

In BFSK system the carrier frequency is switched in between two preset frequencies

according to the binary input. The frequencies corresponding to logic 1 and logic 0 states are called

mark and space frequencies.

CD 4016 is a quad bilateral switch. The modulating signal input is fed to one control pin of

4016 and the inverted input is fed to the control pin of the other 4016. Two sinusoidal signals having

two different frequencies are fed to the inputs of the two switches of 4016. The outputs of the two

bilateral switches are joined and the FSK output is taken.

Procedure:

1. Set up the circuit after testing the components.

2. Feed two different frequency sine waves at the input and verify the output.

Experiment No. 5

Binary Phase Shift Keying (BPSK)

Aim: To set up a Binary Phase Shift Keying (BPSK) circuit.

Components and equipments required: ICs 4016, 7404, 741, bread board and resistors.

Theory:

In the BPSK modulation system phase of the carrier wave is inverted according to logic level

of the input data. When the modulating input is at logic 1 level, the sinusoid has one xed phase and

when the modulating input is at the other level, the phase of the sinusoid changes.

Two switches inside the quad analog switch CD 4016 are used in the circuit. Op-amp

functioning as an inverting amplifier and having unity gain is used to invert the phase of the input

sine wave by 180o. Sine wave can be obtained either from function generator or using a wien bridge

oscillator using op-amp.

BFSK has constant amplitude as in the case of BFSK signal. Therefore the noise can be

removed easily.

Procedure:

1. Set up the circuit as shown in gure.

2. Feed the sine wave and clock from the function generator.

3. Keep the clock frequency lower than the sine wave frequency and observe the output.

Design:

Op-amp circuit functions as an inverting amplier with gain 1

Gain = RF/Ri = 1

Take RF and Ri 4.7k each.

Experiment No. 6

Error Checking and Correcting Codes

Aim: To design and set up a non-systematic Hamming code generator to encode and detect error in a

4 bit message word.

Components and equipments required: ICs 7486, 7404, 7442, trainer kit and LEDs.

Theory:

Various types of equipments used in computer systems such as key boards, printers, magnetic

storage devices, video terminals transmit and receive data in the form of codes.

Hamming code is one of the block codes. In this system one error can be detected and

corrected. In linear block code n is the number of bits in the coded word, k is the number of bits in

uncoded word and r = n - k is the number of parity bits. The relation between the n, r, M and k are as

given below.

The number of bits in the coded word is n = 2r 1.

The number of valid uncoded words are M = 2k

A nonsystematic code can be constructed by placing the parity check bits at positions, 2i

where i = 0, 1,2,..r-1 of the code word. Thus the code word structure is P1 P2 M1 P3 M2 M3 M4

where P1, P2 and P3 are parity bits and M1, M2, M3 and M4 are message bits.

Construction of the error correcting code:

1. Write the BCD of length (n - k) = r for decimal numbers from 1 to n.

2. Arrange the sequences in bit-reverse order in matrix form.

3. Transpose the matrix in step no.2 to get the H matrix.

Procedure:

1. Set up the encoder

2. Take any one of the valid 16 code words.

3. Feed 7 bit code word to the syndrome block. LED will not glow indicating no error since S

will be [0 0 0].



4. Introduce an error in any position in the received code word and observe the LED glow indi-

cating the position of error.

5. Repeat the step no. 4 by introducing one error at a time at other positions in the code word.

Design:

Take n=7, k=4 and r=n-k= 3.

Step 1: Write BCD of length 3 for numbers 1 to 7.

Code Words [T] are selected such that THT = 0.

This gives, P1 M1 M2 M4= 0 P2 M1 M3 M4= 0 P3 M2 M3 M4= 0



or,

P1 = M1 M2 M4 P2 = M1 M3 M4 P3 = M2 M3 M4

Step 4: Realize the equations using EXOR gates.

Decoding

The Syndrome used to detect the error = [S] = RHT

where S is of length n - k.

i.e., S1 S2 S3,

Let [R] be the received word = [r1 r2 r3 r4 r5 r6 r7] where ri = 0 or 1.

S = [ S1 S2 S3] = RHT = [r1 r2 r3 r4 r5 r6 r7]

111

011

101

001

i.e., S1 = r1 + r3 + r5 + r7,

S2 = r2 + r3 + r6 + r7,

S3 = r4 + r5 + r6 + r7,

Realize the circuit using EXOR gates.

In this type of construction, the syndrome obtained directly indicates the position of error. Only

single error pattern can be corrected using Hamming code. [S1 S2 S3] can express seven single error

pattern and one pattern for no error (all zeros).

S = RHT = (T + E) H

T = TH

T + EH

T = EH

T since TH

T = 0.

If the rst position is in error, then E = [1 0 0 0 0 0 0].

Then using H matrix, we get, S = [S1 S2 S3] = [1 0 0]

then S3 S2 S1 = 0 0 1 = decimal 1.

If second position is in error, then E = [0 1 0 0 0 0 0] and using H matrix, we get, S = [S1 S2 S3] = [0

1 0] then S3 S2 S1= 010 = decimal 2.

If third position is in error, then E = [0 0 1 0 0 0 0] and using H matrix, we get, S = [S1 S2 S3] =

[1 1 0 ] then S3 S2 S1= 0 1 1 = decimal 3 and so on.

So, [S3 S2 S1] gives the BCD equivalent of the decimal number indicating the position of error.

Decoding part can be connected separately from encoding.

4 Channel Digital Multiplexing (using PRBS signal and digital multiplexer)

Aim: To study 4 channel digital multiplexing using PRBS generator and 74153 digital MUX.

Components and equipments required: ICs 7495, 74153, 7486, 7404, digital trainer kit, and bread-

board.

Theory:

Pseudo Random Binary Sequences are generated using a linear feedback shift register. A

LFSR is a shift register whose input bit is a linear function of its previous state. The only linear

functions of single bits are XOR and XNOR. Thus it is a shift register whose input bit is drive by the

XOR of some bits of the shift register output.

The initial value of LFSR is called the seed and because the operation of the register is

deterministic the sequence of values produced by the register is completely determined by its current

value. Likewise, because the register has a finite number of possible states, cycle will repeat.

However, an LFSR with a well-chosen feedback function can provide sequence of bits which appears

random as well as having a very long cycle. If the register size is n stages, maximum length of the

sequence will be 2n-1. The sequence repeats after every 2

n-1 clock pulses. PRBS output is available

at any output.

The PRBS output and its inverted form are given as two inputs to a 4:1 MUX. The other two

inputs are tied to Vcc and GND. According to the select lines, one of the input appears at output.

Procedure:

1. Set up circuit on the bread board. Apply 1 kHz clock pulses and observe the PRBS

output from Q0 output. The PRBS repeats after every 15th

clock cycle.

2. Set up the circuit using 7495 and 74153. Apply clock pulses and observe the output.

3. Give the PRBS output and its inverted form are given as inputs to a 4:1 MUX.

Implementation of LMS Algorithm

Aim: To study the implementation of LMS algorithm for adaptive equalization.

Platform Used: Matlab

Theory:

Least mean squares (LMS) algorithms are a class of adaptive filter used to mimic a desired

filter by finding the filter coefficients that relate to producing the least mean squares of the error

signal (difference between the desired and the actual signal). It is a stochastic gradient descent

method in that the filter is only adapted based on the error at the current time.

The LMS algorithm changes (adapts) the filter tap weights so that e(n) is minimized in the

mean-square sense. When the processes x(n) & d(n) are jointly stationary, this algorithm converges

to a set of tap-weights which, on average, are equal to the Wiener-Hopf solution. The LMS algorithm

is a practical scheme for realizing Wiener filters, without explicitly solving the Wiener-Hopf

equation. Features of LMS algorithm are simplicity in implementation and stable and robust

performance against different signal conditions. Drawback is its slow convergence due to eigenvalue

spread.

The output y(n) of the adaptive equalizer in response to the input sequence x(n) is given as,

y(n) =

N

k

knxwk0

)(.

where wk is the weight of kth tap and (N+1) is the total number of taps. This is shown in figure

below,



The adaptation may be achieved by observing the error between the desired pulse shape and

actual pulse shape at the filter output, measured at the sampling instants and then using this error to

estimate the direction in which the weights of the filter should be changed so as to approach the

optimum set of values.

Let e(n) denotes the error signal, then

e(n) = d(n) - y(n)

Where d(n) is the desired response and y(n) is the output response. In LMS algorithm e(n)

activates the adjustment applied to the weights, as the algorithm proceeds from one iteration to

another.

In words LMS algorithm is expressed as,

value Updated

i.e, wk(n+1) = wk(n) + * x(n-k) * e(n)

where, k = 0,1,2,.N and N is the number of iterations.

Steps:

1. Initialise the algorithm by setting w(1) = 0, i.e, set all the tap weights of equalizer to zero at n=1.

2. For n = 1,2,. compute y(n) = xT(n) * w(n) ;

e(n) = d(n) y(n) ;

w(n+1) = w(n) + * x(n) * e(n) , where is step size parameter.

3. Continue the iterative computation until the equalizer reaches a steady state by which we mean that the actual mean square of the equalizer essentially reaches a constant value.

returned signal s(t) is delayed (say, D seconds), noisy and attenuated. The objective is to measure

(estimate) the time delay between the transmitted and the returned signal.

Analysis

Let the transmitted signal be x(t), then the returned signal r(t) may be modeled as,

r(t) = x(t-D) + w(t)

where, w(t) is assumed to be the additive noise during transmission.

3. Generate N=256 samples of Gaussian random signal and this is w(n).

4. Generate the simulated received signal by adding transmitted signal x(n) and noise signal w(n), i.e,

Study of Eye Diagram of PAM Transmission System

Aim: To study the eye diagram of a PAM transmission system.


Theory:

x(t) = )(h. kTtkak

To generate PAM, we choose to represent the input to the transmit filter hT(t) as a train of

impulse functions,

x(t) = )(. kTtkak

Consequently filter output x(t) is a train of pulses, each required shape say, raised cosine

given by,

Eye diagram, allow to measure interference in the channel output. Practically this is done by

displaying channel output on a scope which is triggered using symbol clock. The overlaid pulses

from all the different symbol periods will lead to crisscrossed display with an eye in the middle. The

wider the opening of eye, the lower will be the inter symbol interference.

For the general case of M-ary PAM, the constellation points are evenly spaced along the

constellation axis at locations

M +1,M + 3,..,1, +1,,M+3,M+1

For each value of M, we get M-1 eye openings in the eye-diagram. M can have the values M

thus consists of two phase quadrature carriers with each one being modulated by a set

of discrete amplitudes, hence the name QAM.

Experiment No. 5

Phase Shift Method of SSB Generation using Simulink

Aim: To study single side band generation using phase shift method.

Platform Used: Matlab Simulink

Theory:

About the software:

Simulink is a software package that enables to model, simulate and analyze dynamic

system, ie a system whose output and state change with time. Simulink can be used to explain the

behavior of a wide range of real world systems including electrical circuits, mechanical,

thermodynamic system.

Simulating a dynamic system is a 2 step process with simulink. Model editor is used

to create a model of the system to be simulated. The model graphically depicts the time dependent

mathematical relationship among the system input.



Procedure:

1. Start Matlab Simulink and open Model editor.

2. Open the simulation library browsers and place the required block of the model editor by

drag and place operation.

3. Change the parameters of the block by double-clicking in each block and change the parame-

ter values as specified in the theory.

4. Save the model by giving suitable file name.
