telephone network
For the telephone network, modem are used
that are produce signals in the voice
frequency range
Public telephone system
300Hz to 3400Hz
Use modem (modulator-demodulator)
Amplitude shift keying (ASK)
Frequency shift keying (FSK)
Phase shift keying (PK)

Values represented by different amplitudes
of carrier
Usually, one amplitude is zero
i.e. presence and absence of carrier is used
Susceptible to sudden gain changes
Inefficient
Up to 1200bps on voice grade lines
Used over optical fiber

Most common form is binary FSK (BFSK)
Two binary values represented by two
different frequencies (near carrier)
Less susceptible to error than ASK
Up to 1200bps on voice grade lines

Differential PSK
Phase shifted relative to previous transmission
rather than some reference signal

The coherent carrier recovery circuit detects
and regenerates a carrier signal in both
frequency and phase coherent with the
original transmitted carrier.
The Balanced modulator is product detector;
the output is product of two inputs (the BPSK
signal and recovered carrier).
LPF separates the recovered binary data
from complex demodulated signal.

For BPSK, the output rate of change(baud) is
equal to the input rate of change (bps), and
the widest output bandwidth occurs when
the input binary data are alternating 1/0
sequence.

alternative 1/0 bit sequence is equal to one

are possible for a single carrier frequency.
The binary input data are combined into
groups of two bits called dibits.
QPSK transmitter
Two bits (a dibit) are clocked into the bit
splitter
QPSK modulator is two BPSK modulator
combined in parallel.

To achieve high data rate with narrowband
channel is to increase the number of bits per
symbol
Use combination of amplitude and phase
modulation known as Quadrature Amplitude
Modulation (QAM)
QAM has finite number of allowable
amplitude phase combinations
Constellation diagram shows the possibilities
for hypothetical system with sixteen
amplitude-phase combinations.
5/5/2014 hyder.bux@muet.edu.pk 27
Each transmitted symbol represents four bits
Each dot represents a possible
amplitude/phase combination or state
QAM is more efficient in term of bandwidth
than either FSK or QPSK but it is also more
susceptible to noise
Another disadvantage compared to FSK is
that QAM signals like analog signals, vary in
amplitude. This means that transmitter
amplifiers must be linear.

All advanced modems use a combination of
modulation techniques to transmit multiple bits
per baud.
Multiple amplitude and multiple phase shifts are
combined to transmit several bits per symbol.
QPSK (Quadrature Phase Shift Keying) uses
multiple phase shifts per symbol.
Modems actually use Quadrature Amplitude
Modulation (QAM).
These concepts are explained using
constellation points where a point determines a
specific amplitude and phase.
