• Transform:
– In mathematics, a function that results when a
given function is multiplied by a so-called kernel
function, and the product is integrated between
suitable limits. (Britannica)
• Can be thought of as a substitution

56. Transforms
• Example of a substitution:
• Original equation: x + 4x² – 8 = 0
• Familiar form: ax² + bx + c = 0
• Let: y = x²
• Solve for y
• x = √y

93. What is Modulation
• Modulation
– In the modulation process, some characteristic of a high-
frequency carrier signal (bandpass), is changed according to
the instantaneous amplitude of the information (baseband)
signal.
• Why Modulation
– Suitable for signal transmission (distance…etc)
– Multiple signals transmitted on the same channel
– Capacitive or inductive devices require high frequency AC
input (carrier) to operate.
– Stability and noise rejection

94. About Modulation
• Application Examples
– broadcasting of both audio and
video signals.
– Mobile radio communications, such
as cell phone.
prepared by Arun Kumar & Shivendra
Tiwari
• Basic Modulation Types
– Amplitude Modulation: changes the amplitude.
– Frequency Modulation: changes the frequency.
– Phase Modulation: changes the phase.

• All info is carried in the amplitude of the
carrier, AM carrier signal has time-varying
envelope.
• In frequency domain the AM waveform are
the lower-side frequency/band (fc - fm), the
carrier frequency fc, the upper-side
frequency/band (fc + fm).

100. AM Modulation – Example
• The information signal is usually not a single frequency but a
range of frequencies (band). For example, frequencies from
20Hz to 15KHz. If we use a carrier of 1.4MHz, what will be the
AM spectrum?
• In frequency domain the AM waveform are the lower-side
frequency/band (fc - fm), the carrier frequency fc, the upper-
side frequency/band (fc + fm). Bandwidth: 2x(25K-20)Hz.

For a sinusoidal message signal
Modulation Index is defined as:
Modulation index k is a measure of the extent to
which a carrier voltage is varied by the modulating
signal. When k=0 no modulation, when k=1 100%
modulation, when k>1 over modulation.

• It is important to use as high percentage of modulation as
possible (k=1) while ensuring that over modulation (k>1)
does not occur.
• The sidebands contain the information and have maximum
power at 100% modulation.
• Useful equation
Pt = Pc(1 + k2/2)

This is relatively more complex and more expensive. The Local
Oscillator (LO) must be synchronised or coherent, i.e. at the same
frequency and in phase with the carrier in the AM input signal.

Consider again the general carrier cccc φ+tωV=tv cos
cc φ+tω represents the angle of the carrier.
There are two ways of varying the angle of the carrier.

114. Phase Modulation
• One of the properties of a sinusoidal wave is its phase, the
offset from a reference time at which the sine wave begins.
• We use the term phase shift to characterize such changes.
• If phase changes after cycle k, the next sinusoidal wave will
start slightly later than the time at which cycle k completes.

120. Generation of FM
• Basically two methods:
1. Direct method
• Build a voltage controlled oscillator (VCO) where the
frequency is varied in response to an applied modulating
voltage by using a voltage-variable capacitor
• The main difficulty is that it is very difficult to maintain the
stability of the carrier frequency of the VCO when used to
generate wide-band FM.
2. Indirect method
• Use a narrow-band FM modulator followed by frequency
multiplier and mixer for up conversion.
• Allows to decouple the problem of carrier frequency stability
from the FM modulation.4/26/2014

The decibel (abbreviated dB) is the unit used to measure the
intensity of a sound.! The smallest audible sound (near total
silence) is 0 dB. A sound 10 times more powerful is 10 dB. A
sound 1,000 times more powerful than near total silence is 30
dB.
Here are some common sounds and their decibel ratings:
Normal conversation - 60 dB
A rock concert - 120 dB
It takes approximate 4 hours of exposure to a 120-dB sound to
cause damage to your ears, however 140-dB sound can result in
an immediate damage

1) The noise power at the output of receiver’s IF stage is measured at 45
µW. With receiver tuned to test signal, output power increases to 3.58
mW. Compute the SNR
SNR = 10 Log (Signal power/ Noise power) dB
= 10 Log (3.58 mW/ 45 µW) = 19 dB
2) A 1 kHZ test tone measured with an oscilloscope at the
input of receiver’s FM detector stage. Its peak to peak
voltage is 3V. With test tone at transmitter turned off, the
noise at same test point is measure with an rms voltmeter. Its
value is 640 mV. Compute SNR in dB.
SNR = 20 Log (Vs/Vn) = 20 Log ((.707 x Vp-p/2)/Vn)
