3 Why Digital? (1/3) Advantages Easy to regenerate original function Distance 1 Distance 2 Distance 3 Distance 4 Distance 5 Original Some signal Degraded Signal is badly Amplification pulse signal distortion signal degraded to regenerate pulse Propagation distance 3

4 Why Digital? (2/3) Less subject to distortion & other interference High signal fidelity can be obtained Digital circuits are more reliable, lower cost, and more flexible to implementation in H/W Protection against interference & jamming Easy storage & processing of data 4

5 Why Digital? (3/3) Disadvantages More technical complexity Require additional steps Sampling AD conversion Require a greater bandwidth Require complicated synchronization issues 5

9 Signal Flow in Digital Communications Formatting: transforms the source information into digital symbols Source coding: removes redundant or unneeded information Encryption: prevents unauthorized users from understanding messages and from injecting false messages into the system Channel coding: reducing the probability of error, or SNR requirement, at the expense of bandwidth or decoder complexity 9

10 CDMA Communication Flow Converting analog voice to digital Pulse Coded Modulation (PCM) Vocoded voice CODEC VOCODER Pulse Code Modulation (PCM) is a technique to convert analog voice to a digital representation of the voice. The Vocoder (Voice Coder) is used to compress the digital representations that came from the Codec (Code/Decoder). In other words, in compression, redundant digits are eliminated. Voice quality is not adversely affected. 10

13 Channel Encoding Example (1/2) Actual message A B C D Encoded transmitted message A,A,A B,B,B C,C,C D,D,D Received message A,A,A B,?,??,?,C D,D,D Decoded message A?? D 13

14 Channel Encoding Example (2/2) A simple coding scheme is shown in this example. The actual digit message consists of four letters (A,B,C,D). Each of the bits are then encoded into 3 symbols to represent one bit. The encoded transmitted message would be as follows: A, A, A, B, B, B, C, C, C, D, D, D. Note that errors as? in this example. The received message is: A, A, A, B,,?,?,?,?, C, D, D, D. The decoder uses majority logic rule (two out of three wins). 14

15 Interleaving Example (1/2) A B C D Bit pattern A A A B B B C C C D D D Encoded symbols A B C D A B C D A B C D Interleaved symbols A B C???? D A B C D Burst errors A? A B? B C? C D? D Deinterleaved symbols A B C D Decoded bits 15

16 Interleaving Example (2/2) Interleaving is a simple, but powerful, method of reducing errors and recovering bits when errors occur. In this example, the first 3 symbols for the 1 st code (1,1,1) in the actual message are transmitted at locations 1, 5, and 9. The 3 symbols for the 3 rd code (1,1,1) are transmitted at locations 3, 7, and 11. Using the same error pattern as used in the previous example the received message is: 1?1,0?0,1?1,0?0. What is the decoded message? Note that with the same error pattern as before, the original message is completely recovered using majority logic decoding. 16

17 Modulation (1/3) Modulation: process by which the symbols are converted to waveforms that are compatible with the transmission channel PSK (Phase Shift Keying): the carrier phase varies with corresponding digital symbol. FSK (Frequency Shift Keying): the carrier frequency varies with corresponding digital symbol. ASK (Amplitude Shift Keying): the carrier amplitude varies with corresponding digital symbol. 17

18 Modulation (2/3) Note Modulation: translate a baseband message signal to a bandpass signal at high frequencies Baseband signal: information-bearing signal Carrier: high frequency signal Modulated wave: bandpass signal Cellular system: 800MHz, 1.7 ~1.8GHz (PCS) 18
