How do we recover he ransmied symbol? Coheren synchronous deecion Use a BPF o rejec ou-of-band noise Muliply he incoming waveform wih a cosine of he carrier frequency Use a LPF Requires carrier regeneraion boh frequency and phase synchronizaion by using a phase-lock loop Noncoheren deecion envelope deecion ec. Makes no eplici effors o esimae he phase 5
Ampliude shif keying ASK = on-off keying OOK Or s 0 = 0 s 1 = A cos f c s = A cos f c, A {0, A} 6
Coheren Deecion Assume an ideal band-pass filer wih uni gain on [f c W, f c +W ]. For a pracical band-pass filer, W should be inerpreed as he equivalen bandwidh. 7

Reminder: The in-phase noise componen n c has he same variance as he original band-pass noise n The received signal 166 is idenical o he received signal 147 for baseband digial ransmission The sample values of ~ y will have PDFs ha are idenical o hose of he baseband case For ASK he saisics of he receiver signal are idenical o hose of a baseband sysem 10
The probabiliy of error for ASK is he same as for he baseband case Assume equiprobable ransmission of 0s and 1s. Then he decision hreshold mus be A/ and he probabiliy of error is given by: P e, ASK A Q 11
Phase shif keying PSK s = A cos f c, A { A, A} Use coheren deecion again, o evenually ge he deecion signal: ~ y A n C 1
Probabiliy densiy funcions for PSK for equiprobable 0s and 1s in noise: a: symbol 0 ransmied b: symbol 1 ransmied 13
Use hreshold 0 for deecion Condiional error probabiliies: n A P e 1 0 ep dn 0 P e 1 n A 0 ep 1 dn 14

Frequency Shif Keying FSK s 0 = s 1 = A cos f 0, if symbol 0 is ransmied A cos f 1, if symbol 1 is ransmied Symbol recovery: Use wo ses of coheren deecors, one operaing a a frequency f 0 and he oher a f 1. 17
Coheren deecor for FSK The wo BPF s are non-overlapping in frequency specrum 18

Se deecion hreshold o 0 Difference from PSK: he noise erm is now n 1 n 0. The noises in he wo channels are independen because heir specra are non-overlapping. he variances add he noise variance has doubled! 1

Comparison of he hree schemes 5
To achieve he same error probabiliy fied P e : PSK can be reduced by 6 db compared wih a baseband or ASK sysem a facor of reducion in ampliude FSK can be reduced by 3 db compared wih a baseband or ASK a facor of reducion in ampliude Cauion: The comparison is based on peak SNR. In erms of average SNR, PSK only has a 3 db improvemen over ASK, and FSK has he same performance as ASK 6

Non-coheren deecion Accurae phase synchronizaion may be difficul in a dynamic channel. Phase synchronizaion error is due o frequency drif, insabiliy of he local oscillaor, effecs of srong noise... When he carrier phase is unknown, one mus rely on non-coheren deecion. The phase θ is assumed o be uniformly disribued on [0, ]. Circuiry is simpler, bu analysis is more difficul! 9

Error analysis When symbol 0 is sen, he envelope noise alone has Rayleigh disribuion r r / f r e, r 0 180 When symbol 1 is sen, he envelope signal + noise has Rician disribuion f r r A / Ar r e I0, r 0 180 dominaes he error probabiliy when A/σ >> 1. 31

Error probabiliy When a symbol 1 is sen, one branch has Rayleigh disribuion, he oher has Rice disribuion. Error occurs if Rice < Rayleigh, and i can be shown ha P e e 1 A /4 Cf. coheren demodulaion P e, FSK Q A 1 e A /4 34
DPSK: Differenial PSK I is impossible o demodulae PSK wih an envelop deecor, since PSK signals have he same frequency and ampliude. We can demodulae PSK differenially, where phase reference is provided by a delayed version of he signal in he previous inerval. Differenial encoding is essenial: b n = b n 1 a n, where a n, b n 1. 35

Conclusions Non-coheren demodulaion reains he hierarchy of performance. Non-coheren demodulaion has error performance slighly worse han coheren demodulaion, bu approaches coheren performance a high SNR. Non-coheren demodulaors are considerably easier o build. 37
