Abstract
Line coding consists of representing the digital signal to
be transported by an amplitude- and time-discrete signal
that is optimally tuned for the specific properties of the
physical channel. There are two types of line
coding which are Return-to-zero (RZ) & Non-return-to-
zero (NRZ). RZ describes signal drops (returns) to zero
between each pulse. NRZ represents is a binary code in
which 1s are represented by one significant condition &
0s are represented by some other significant condition
TDM is a method of transmitting and receiving
independent signals or waveform via a common signal
path that needed synchronized switches at each end of the
transmission line for signal or waveform appears on the
line in a fraction of time in an alternating pattern. In this
case, The TDM multiplexer and TDM demultiplexer select
certain waveform based on desired needed via a
particular path in a fraction of time.

1. Introduction

A line code decoder is used to retrieve the original line
code which chosen for the used within a communications
system for baseband transmission purposes. The line
coding is normally in digital data transport. A Return-to-
Zero (RZ) System describes a line code which the signal
drops (returns) to zero between each pulse and the signal
is self-clocking. A Non-Return-to-Zero (NRZ) System is
a binary code in which 1s are represented by one positive
voltage and 0s are represented by one negative voltage,
with no other neutral or rest condition. Pulse-code
modulation Demodulator is an electronic circuit system
used to extracting the original information analog signal
from a modulated carried wave which has been digitally
represents. In a PCM stream, the amplitude of the analog
signal is sampled regularly at uniform intervals, and each
sample is quantized to the nearest value within a range of
digital steps. A waveform generator is a piece
of electronic test equipment used to generate
electrical waveforms. These waveforms can be either
repetitive or single-shot which case some kind of
triggering source is required which is either internal or
external. The resulting waveforms can be injected into a
device under test and analyzed as they progress through it,
confirming the proper operation of the device.
Multiplexing is the set of techniques that allows the
simultaneous transmission of multiple signals across a
single data link. Whenever the transmission capacity of a
medium linking two devices is greater than the
transmission needs of the devices, the link can be shared
in order to maximize the utilization of the link, such as
one cable can carry a hundred channels of TV.
Meanwhile, the time-division multiplexing is multiple
transmissions that can occupy a single link by subdividing
them and interleaving the portions. Demultiplexing is any
of several signals was put onto a single carrier, then at the
other end the signals must be separated and each sent to
the appropriate destination. This mean one input the
shared channel is routed to one of several outputs. FDM
will generate signals by each sending device modulates
with different carrier frequencies. These modulated
signals are combined into a single composite signal that
can be transported by the link. The carrier frequencies
have to be different enough to accommodate the
modulation and demodulation signals. In demultiplexing
process, we use filters to decompose the multiplexed
signal into its constituent component signals. Then each
signal is passed to an amplitude demodulation process to
separate the carrier signal from the message signal. Then,
the message signal is sent to the waiting receiver.

Table 5-1 shows that the waveforms between UNI-NRZ
signal and data signal are similar to each other. But, the
amplitude are differ a little. Since, we only need to add a
buffer in front of the decoder circuit, which can recover
the original input data signal which shown at Figure 5-2
above. This is the same for all the Data I/P frequencies
(1kHz, 2kHz, 4kHz). The differences between the inputs
and the outputs results most probably are caused by some
instrumentation noise or distortion.

Figure 6-2 shows the circuit diagram of unipolar return-
to-zero (UNI-RZ) decoder. The output of the UNI-RZ
decoder is a NOR-RS flip-flop, which is comprised by
R3, R4 and two NOR gates. TP2 is the S terminal and
TP3 is the R terminal. From the results shown above,
TP1 is the inverted output of the Clock input. TP2 is the
filtered result of UNI-RZI/P, because of the capacitor C1.
The clock signal will be inverted by a NOT gate which is
comprised by the NOR gate. Then, by using XOR to
operate the inverted clock signal and UNI-RZ signal and
passing through a differentiator which is comprised by C2
and R2, the output will be transformed to pulse wave
which is used for R terminal of RS flip-flop. UNI-RZ
signal will pass through a capacitor to the S terminal of
RS flip-flop. Finally by sending both UNI-RZ and clock
signals into the RS flip-flop, we can recover the original
input data signal.

From the Figure 13-2, FS0 and FS1are the data format
selection of PCM encoder. The data format selection of
PCM encoder can encode the sample to 8-bit -law
format, 8-bit A-law format or 16-bit digital data format.
As a result of the FS1 in the encode circuit is grounded,
therefore, the FS1 in the decoder circuit must also be
grounded. The selection of FS0 and FS1 of both the
modulation and demodulation must be same, otherwise,
the demodulated audio signal will be different from the
original audio signal.
In Table 13-1, TP1s are the buffer results of the inputs.
So, it will be quite similar to the inputs. TP2s show the
results of similar to 2048kHz Square Wave Inputs.
Besides that, the TP3s show the results of similar to 8kHz
Square Wave Inputs. Furthermore, TP4s show the high
frequencies noises of the signals. Finally, Audio O/P
results were filtered by the Low Pass Filter where the

generator the certain output will be produced. The VR3,
VR1 and VR2 is keep adjusting respectively to obtain the
maximum output of the waveform.

The combination of three waveforms in the time domain
was under control by the set of binary pulses is called
TDM multiplexing. It can be shown in the above picture
that after the pulses are triggered the combination of the
waveform is happened. The variety of shape of the
combination of the waveform happened because of two or
more waveform are sampled at the same rate but at
slightly different times, then waveforms are be added and
interleaved without mutual interaction. The different
connection of TP4, TP5 and TP6 showed that the same
theories is applied to all kind combination of waveform.

The multiplexer is connected to the Demultiplexer. It is
used to produce a single waveform as the output. Firstly,
TP4 AND O/P1



it can be observed that the combination of the waveforms.
Then, when TP2 is connected, the output at O/P1 show
the square waveform is observed when the pulse is
triggered. The other output at O/P2 and O/P3 show the
waveform and the pulse are not matched. The same
happened when TP3 is connected, but the waveform is
concurrently with the output at O/P2 and did not match
the pulse at the output O/P1 and O/P3.Then when the TP4
is connected, the waveform match the pulse at the output
O/P3 not at the O/P1 and O/P2.This is happened because
the when the input is connected at the TP2,the pulse is
actually readily at the O/P1,so when at O/P1,when there
are pulse, the square waveform is produced. When at the
output of O/P2 and O/P3, it did not match the pulses. The
same happened for TP3 and TP4.

For the experiment 22-1, the audio signal generator (ICL
8038) was used. The output signal waveform of audio
signal generator were obtained by adjusting the variable
resistors audio frequency adjust 1 and audio gain adjust 1.
A potentiometer is available to remove distortion in the
FM output of the ICL8038.Using no message signal, a
sinusoidal waveform was observed. If distortion was
present, the potentiometer is varied until the distortion is
minimized. The capacitors were used to decouple the
message and output signals and remove any DC bias.

The Wien Bridge Oscillator is a two-stage RC coupled
amplifier circuit that has good stability at its resonant
frequency, low distortion and is very easy to tune making
it a popular circuit as an audio frequency oscillator It can
generate a large range of frequencies. For the experiment
22-2, the output signal waveform of carrier signal
generator were obtained by adjusting the carrier gain
adjust. Carrier adjust gain was used to reduce the gain so
that the amount of distortion was reduced.

Frequency Division Multiplexing works by transmitting
all of the signals along the same high speed link
simultaneously with each signal set at a different
frequency. For FDM to work properly frequency overlap
must be avoided. Therefore, the link must have sufficient
bandwidth to be able to carry the wide range of
frequencies required. The demultiplexor at the receiving
end works by dividing the signals by tuning into the
appropriate frequency.
The advantages of the FDM multiplexing are :
1. The sender can send signals continuously.
2. It also works on analog signals.
3. No dynamic coordination is necessary.
For each frequency channel, an electronic oscillator
generates a carrier signal, which is a steady oscillating
waveform at a single frequency that functions to carry
information. The carrier is much higher in frequency than
the baseband signal. The carrier signal and the baseband
signal are then applied to a modulator circuit. The
modulator then changes some aspect of the carrier signal,
such as its amplitude, frequency or phase.
The carrier center frequency produces sub-frequencies
from the mixing of the modulated baseband. The
information from the modulated signal is carried in the
sidebands each side of the carrier frequency. the sub-band
frequencies of the channel must be far from each other so
that they do not overlap and the sub-bands will not
interfere with each another. The available channel
bandwidth is divided into sub-bands; each can carry a
separate modulated signal.
At the receiving end, a local oscillator mixes with the
carrier frequency, and the resulting baseband signal is
filtered to produce each sub-band to a separate output.
The DSB-SC modulation was used to implement the
FDM multiplexer because both of its upper
sideband and lower sideband were transmitted and the
carrier is suppressed in the mean time. So the efficiency
of the suppressed carrier amplitude modulation is higher
than the DSB-AM.

MC1496B was designed for use where the output voltage
is a product of an input voltage or signal and a switching
function or carrier.
Synchronous detectors are considerably more complex
than simple envelope detectors. They consist of phase
locked loop and multiplier circuits. Demodulation is
performed by multiplying the modulated carrier by a sine
wave that is phase locked to the incoming carrier.
Synchronous detectors are a subset of detectors product..
The advantage of synchronous detection is that it causes
less distortion than envelope detection and works well
with single sideband signals. The synchronous detectors
are phase sensitive. The amplitude of the demodulated
signal is a function of the relative phases of the incoming
carrier and the carrier generated inside the receiver.
A low-pass filter is an electronic circuit that hasa constant
output voltage from dc up to a cutoff frequency. As the
frequency increases above the cutoff frequency, the
output voltage is attenuated.
The advantage of this configuration is that the op-amps
high input impedance prevents excessive loading on the
filters output while its low output impedance prevents the
filters cut-off frequency point from being affected by
changes in the impedance of the load.

4. Conclusions

As a conclusion, A line code decoder is good to retrieve
the original line code which chosen for the used within a
communications system. PCM Demodulator is an
electronic circuit system used to extracting the original
information to digitally representation.
The waveform generator is a device that can be used to
show different type of waveform. By having different
type of waveform the result of experiment of multiplexer
and Demultiplexer can be tested its usage. Multiplexer
allow multiple signals to be subdividing and interleaving
to be occupied as a single link. It is a combination or
addition of several waveforms. Demultiplexer is an
opposition of multiplexer. Its select a waveform from
several waveform of the input as the output. It is triggered
by the pulse or clock. FDM is a technique by which the
total bandwidth available in a communication medium is
divided into a series of non-overlapping frequency sub-
bands, each of which is used to carry a separate signal.
Whereas the FDM Demultiplexer is reverse of the FDM
multiplexer but use filter to decompose the multiplexed
signal into its constituent component signals.
