ading effects of channel noise and signal distortion.

plished by representing the signal in discrete form in both time and amplitude

gnal

v Regeneration Along the Transmission Path
Ø The ability to control the effects of distortion and noise produced by transmitti
ng a PCM signal over a channel
Ø Equalizer
§ Shapes the received pulses so as to compensate for the effects of amplitude and phase
distortions produced by the transmission
Ø Timing circuitry
§ Provides a periodic pulse train, derived from the received pulses
§ Renewed sampling of the equalized pulses
Ø Decision-making device Fig. 5.13
§ The sample so extracted is compared o a predetermined threshold
Ø ideally, except for delay, the regenerated signal is exactly the same as the infor
mation-bearing signal
1. The unavoidable presence of channel noise and interference causes the repeater to ma
ke wrong decisions occasionally, thereby introducing bit errors into the regenerated
signal
2. If the spacing between received pulses deviates from its assigned value, a jitter is intro
duced into the regenerated pulse position, thereby causing distortion.

to the compressor
1. The combination of a compressor and an expander is a compander
2. Reconstruction

s reconstruction filter

magnitude response of the channel and a nonlinear phase response.
v Synchronization
Ø Keep the same time as a distant standard clock at the transmitter
Ø One possible procedure to synchronize the transmitter and receiver cloc
ks is to set aside a code element or pulse at the end of a frame and to tra
nsmit this pulse every other frame only
