Overview of Modulation Techniques For Wireless: EEL 6593/fall '95/paul Flikkema/USF

This document discusses various modulation techniques used for wireless communications. It provides an overview of analog modulation techniques like frequency modulation (FM) and examples of digital modulation schemes used in wireless standards such as minimum-shift keying (MSK), Gaussian MSK (GMSK), and quadrature phase-shift keying (QPSK). It also covers topics like spectral efficiency, the trade-offs involved in selecting a modulation scheme, and the state of modulation technique technologies for wireless communications.

Overview of Modulation Techniques for Wireless

EEL 6593 Fall '95 Paul Flikkema USF

Introduction

The purpose of analog modulation is to impress an information-bearing analog waveform onto a carrier for transmission. The purpose of digital modulation is to convert an information-bearing discrete-time symbol sequence into a continuous-time waveform perhaps impressed on a carrier. Key concerns | bandwidth e ciency and implementation complexity. These are a ected by: baseband pulse shape phase transition characteristics envelope uctuations channel non-linearities?

Frequency Modulation

Angle modulation: transmitted signal is

xt = A cos !c t + t = fAej !c t+t g


with instantaneous phase i t = !ct + t; and instantaneous frequency

!i t = di t = !c + dt : dt dt


t is the instantaneous phase deviation, and dt is the dt

instantaneous frequency deviation.


EEL 6593 Fall '95 Paul Flikkema USF

For phase modulation, t = kp mt where mt is the message signal, and kp is the phase deviation constant rad volt. For FM, we have dt = kf mt or dt Zt t = kf msds + t0 
to

where kf is the frequency deviation constant rad sec volt. With t0 = ,1 and t0  = 0, we have

xt = A cos !c t + kp mt PM Zt xt = A cos !c t + kf msds FM

If modulating signal is a sinusoid, mt = Am cos !m t, then

xt = A cos !ct + sin !m t

Digital Modulation | Classi cation Constant-envelope methods: Allow use of less expensive

ampli cation not dependent on signal amplitude at the expense of out-of-band emissions. Limited to a spectral e ciency of about 1 bit sec Hz. Examples: MSK, GMSK Linear methods: Higher spectral e ciency, but must use linear ampli ers to maintain performance and to limit out-of-band emissions. Examples: PSK, QAM

Spectral E ciency

Spectral occupancy per channel is roughly

SO = B + 2f
where B = bandwidth occupied of RF signal power spectrum and f is the maximum one-way carrier frequency oscillator drift. Remark: Per-channel spectral e ciency for narrowband systems only We can express the bandwidth as B = Rd n where Rd is the channel data rate and n is the spectral e ciency in bits sec Hz.

Combining,

Thus, to minimize spectral occupancy thus maximizing capacity in number of users we can: 1. Lower speech encoder rate trade: cost, delity, or 2. Improve spectral e ciency of modulation trade: complexity, or 3. Improve transmitter receiver oscillators trade: cost.

SO = Rd + 2f n
