PROJECT SUMMARY

Integrate Matlab tools with code composer studio 3.1 software to

generate C-code on DSP board (TMSC6713)
(TMSC6713
Integration process will involve Filter implementation and
Modulation schemes
Filters and Modulation schemes (SPD) will be designed in
Simulink and verified experimentally on an oscilloscope
Applications of SPD in industry will be examined
S-block functions not found in Simulink will be generated and
called as subroutines. (MEX files)
SPD executed on DSP board via Mat-lab M file or Simulink block
diagrams
Ultimate goal is to produce User Manual for DSP and
Communication Theory Students.

FIR Filter Design and Implementation

NOTCH Filter
Filter that passes most frequencies unaltered,
but attenuates those in a narrow range to very low levels

Given Equation:

H(Z)=h0+h1z-1 + h2z-2
2 poles at origin which corresponds to Z 2
2 zeros 45 degrees from the origin

Design of Filter given formulae for H(z)

A Bandpass filter has transfer Function

Amplitude Modulation (AM)

Amplitude Modulation: the amplitude of a carrier signal is varied with

respect to an input modulation signal to convey data.

Applications: commonly used at radio frequencies and was the first

method used to broadcast commercial radio.

Modeled in project to transmit and receive speech signals.

Frequency Shift Keying (FSK)

Frequency shift keying (FSK) is the most common form of digital

modulation in the high-frequency radio spectrum

Used to send information between digital equipment like

teleprinters and computers.

Data is transmitted by the frequency of a carrier in a binary

manner to one or the other of two discrete frequencies.

Double-Sideband Suppressed Carrier

Double-sideband suppressed-carrier transmission (DSB-SC):
transmission in which:

(a) frequencies produced by amplitude modulation are

symmetrically spaced above and below the carrier frequency

(b) the carrier level is reduced to the lowest practical level,

ideally completely suppressed.

Binary Phase-Shift Keying

Phase-shift keying is a digital modulation scheme that conveys data

by changing the phase of a reference signal (carrier wave) and BPSK
is the simplest form of phase-shift keying.

Generated the same way as a DSB-SC, but m(t) is a unipolar data

signal
