TIME DIVISION MULTIPLEXING TECHNIQUE FOR COMMUNICATION SYSTEMHODECEDSIET
Time Division Multiplexing (TDM) is a method of transmitting multiple signals over a single communication channel by dividing the signal into many segments, each having a very short duration of time. These time slots are then allocated to different data streams, allowing multiple signals to share the same transmission medium efficiently. TDM is widely used in telecommunications and data communication systems.
### How TDM Works
1. **Time Slots Allocation**: The core principle of TDM is to assign distinct time slots to each signal. During each time slot, the respective signal is transmitted, and then the process repeats cyclically. For example, if there are four signals to be transmitted, the TDM cycle will divide time into four slots, each assigned to one signal.
2. **Synchronization**: Synchronization is crucial in TDM systems to ensure that the signals are correctly aligned with their respective time slots. Both the transmitter and receiver must be synchronized to avoid any overlap or loss of data. This synchronization is typically maintained by a clock signal that ensures time slots are accurately aligned.
3. **Frame Structure**: TDM data is organized into frames, where each frame consists of a set of time slots. Each frame is repeated at regular intervals, ensuring continuous transmission of data streams. The frame structure helps in managing the data streams and maintaining the synchronization between the transmitter and receiver.
4. **Multiplexer and Demultiplexer**: At the transmitting end, a multiplexer combines multiple input signals into a single composite signal by assigning each signal to a specific time slot. At the receiving end, a demultiplexer separates the composite signal back into individual signals based on their respective time slots.
### Types of TDM
1. **Synchronous TDM**: In synchronous TDM, time slots are pre-assigned to each signal, regardless of whether the signal has data to transmit or not. This can lead to inefficiencies if some time slots remain empty due to the absence of data.
2. **Asynchronous TDM (or Statistical TDM)**: Asynchronous TDM addresses the inefficiencies of synchronous TDM by allocating time slots dynamically based on the presence of data. Time slots are assigned only when there is data to transmit, which optimizes the use of the communication channel.
### Applications of TDM
- **Telecommunications**: TDM is extensively used in telecommunication systems, such as in T1 and E1 lines, where multiple telephone calls are transmitted over a single line by assigning each call to a specific time slot.
- **Digital Audio and Video Broadcasting**: TDM is used in broadcasting systems to transmit multiple audio or video streams over a single channel, ensuring efficient use of bandwidth.
- **Computer Networks**: TDM is used in network protocols and systems to manage the transmission of data from multiple sources over a single network medium.

The aquaponic system of planting is a method that does not require soil usage. It is a method that only needs water, fish, lava rocks (a substitute for soil), and plants. Aquaponic systems are sustainable and environmentally friendly. Its use not only helps to plant in small spaces but also helps reduce artificial chemical use and minimizes excess water use, as aquaponics consumes 90% less water than soil-based gardening. The study applied a descriptive and experimental design to assess and compare conventional and reconstructed aquaponic methods for reproducing tomatoes. The researchers created an observation checklist to determine the significant factors of the study. The study aims to determine the significant difference between traditional aquaponics and reconstructed aquaponics systems propagating tomatoes in terms of height, weight, girth, and number of fruits. The reconstructed aquaponics system’s higher growth yield results in a much more nourished crop than the traditional aquaponics system. It is superior in its number of fruits, height, weight, and girth measurement. Moreover, the reconstructed aquaponics system is proven to eliminate all the hindrances present in the traditional aquaponics system, which are overcrowding of fish, algae growth, pest problems, contaminated water, and dead fish.

Propositional Logic Concepts
• Logic is a study of principles used to
− distinguish correct from incorrect reasoning.
• Formally it deals with
− the notion of truth in an abstract sense and is concerned
with the principles of valid inferencing.
• A proposition in logic is a declarative statements
which are either true or false (but not both) in a
given context. For example,
− “Jack is a male”,
− "Jack loves Mary" etc.
3. Prof saroj Kaushik, CSE, IITD 3
Cont…
• Given some propositions to be true in a given
context,
− logic helps in inferencing new proposition, which is also
true in the same context.
• Suppose we are given a set of propositions such
as
− “It is hot today" and
− “If it is hot it will rain", then
− we can infer that
“It will rain today".
4. Prof saroj Kaushik, CSE, IITD 4
Well-formed formula
• Propositional Calculus (PC) is a language of
propositions basically refers
− to set of rules used to combine the propositions to form
compound propositions using logical operators often called
connectives such as Λ, V, ~, →, ↔
• Well-formed formula is defined as:
− An atom is a well-formed formula.
− If α is a well-formed formula, then ~α is a well-formed
formula.
− If α and β are well formed formulae, then (α Λ β), (α V β ),
(α → β), (α ↔ β ) are also well-formed formulae.
− A propositional expression is a well-formed formula if and
only if it can be obtained by using above conditions.
5. Prof saroj Kaushik, CSE, IITD 5
Truth Table
● Truth table gives us operational definitions of
important logical operators.
− By using truth table, the truth values of well-formed
formulae are calculated.
● Truth table elaborates all possible truth values of a
formula.
● The meanings of the logical operators are given by
the following truth table.
P Q ~P P Λ Q P V Q P → Q P ↔ Q
T T F T T T T
T F F F T F F
F T T F T T F
F F T F F T T

1. P Λ Q ≅ Q Λ P
2. P V Q ≅ Q V P
Association
1. P Λ (Q Λ R) ≅ (P Λ Q) Λ R
2. P V (Q V R) ≅ (P V Q) V R
Double Negation
~ (~ P) ≅ P
Distributive Laws
1. P Λ ( Q V R) ≅ (P Λ Q) V (P Λ R)
2. P V ( Q Λ R) ≅ (P V Q) Λ (P V R)

1. ~ (P Λ Q) ≅ ~ P V ~ Q
2. ~ (P V Q) ≅ ~ P Λ ~ Q
Law of Excluded Middle
P V ~ P ≅ T (true)
Law of Contradiction

Propositional Logic - PL
● PL deals with
− the validity, satisfiability and unsatisfiability of a formula
− derivation of a new formula using equivalence laws.
● Each row of a truth table for a given formula is
called its interpretation under which a formula can
be true or false.
● A formula α is called tautology if and only
− if α is true for all interpretations.
● A formula α is also called valid if and only if
− it is a tautology.
8. Prof saroj Kaushik, CSE, IITD 8
Cont..
● Let α be a formula and if there exist at least one
interpretation for which α is true,
− then α is said to be consistent (satisfiable) i.e., if ∃ a model for α,
then α is said to be consistent .
● A formula α is said to be inconsistent (unsatisfiable),
if and only if
− α is always false under all interpretations.
● We can translate
− simple declarative and
− conditional (if .. then) natural language sentences into its
corresponding propositional formulae.
9. Prof saroj Kaushik, CSE, IITD 9
Example
● Show that " It is humid today and if it is humid then it
will rain so it will rain today" is a valid argument.
● Solution: Let us symbolize English sentences by
propositional atoms as follows:
A : It is humid
B : It will rain
● Formula corresponding to a text:
α
α
α
α : ((A →
→
→
→ B) Λ
Λ
Λ
Λ A) →
→

→ B
● Using truth table approach, one can see that α is true
under all four interpretations and hence is valid
argument.

Cont…
● Truth table method for problem solving is
− simple and straightforward and
− very good at presenting a survey of all the truth possibilities
in a given situation.
● It is an easy method to evaluate
− a consistency, inconsistency or validity of a formula, but the
size of truth table grows exponentially.
− Truth table method is good for small values of n.
● If a formula contains n atoms, then the truth table
will contain 2n entries.
12. Prof saroj Kaushik, CSE, IITD 12
Cont…Problem with Truth Table Approach
● A formula α : (P Λ Q Λ R) → ( Q V S) is valid can
be proved using truth table.
− A table of 16 rows is constructed and the truth values of α
are computed.
− Since the truth value of α is true under all 16
interpretations, it is valid.
● We notice that if P Λ Q Λ R is false, then α is true
because of the definition of →.
● Since P Λ Q Λ R is false for 14 entries out of 16, we
are left only with two entries to be tested for which α
is true.
− So in order to prove the validity of a formula, all the entries
in the truth table may not be relevant.
13. Prof saroj Kaushik, CSE, IITD 13
Other Systems
There are other methods in which the treatment is
more of a syntactic in nature where we will be
concerned with proofs and deductions.
These methods do not rely on any notion of truth but
only on manipulating sequence of formulae.
− Natural Deductive System
− Axiomatic System
− Semantic Tableaux Method
− Resolution Refutation Method

rules.

conclude that β is proved if α is given i.e.,
− if ‘from α infer β’ is a theorem then α → β is concluded.

Proof by Contradiction
Proof by contradiction means that
– we make an assumption and proceed to prove a
contradiction by showing that something is both true and
false.
– Since this can not possibly happen, the assumption must
be false.
The Rule 9 ( I- ~) and Rule 10 (E- ~) are
contradictory rules used for such proof. These rules
are restated as follows:
Rule 9 (I- ~) : If from P infer (P1 Λ
Λ
Λ
Λ ~ P1 ) is proved then ~P is

Rule 10 (E- ~) : If from ~ P infer (P1 Λ
