Tutorial 3: Digital Transmission


Name: Norarbai’yah binti Zulkifli
Class: CDCS2402B
Subject: ITT400
Instructions
a. Answer all questions.
b. Please submit your tutorial in Google Classroom in PDF File.

1. List three techniques of digital-to-digital conversion.

• Line coding
• Block coding
• Scrambling

2. Distinguish between a signal element and a data element.

Data element : The smallest entity that can represent a piece of information (bit).
Signal element : The shortest unit of a digital signal to carry a data element.

3. Distinguish between data rate and signal rate.

Data rate : The number of data elements (bits) sent in 1 s. Unit is bps.
Signal rate : The number of signal elements sent in 1 s. Unit in baud

4. Define baseline wandering and its effect on digital transmission.

The baseline is a running average of the received signal power and a drift in the baseline is called baseline
wandering. A long string of 0s or1s can cause the baseline wadering and make it difficult for the receiver
to decoding a digital signal correctly.

5. Define a DC component and its effect on digital transmission.

The signal that have zero frequency and the average amplitude is nonzero.
When the voltage level in a digital signal is constant for a while, the spectrum creates very low frequences
which called DC components. Its present problems for a system that cannot pass low frequencies.

6. Define the characteristics of a self-synchronizing signal.

The method to correctly interpret the signals received from the sender.

7. List five line coding schemes discussed in this book.

• Unipolar
• Polar
• Bipolar
• Multilevel
• Multitransition

8. Define block coding and give its purpose.

Block coding is a visual programming language where code is represent as blocks that user grad and drop
to create programs. Its purpose to simplify coding, especially for beginners or those without coding
experience, by removing the need to write complex syntax and focusing on logical structures.

9. Define scrambling and give its purpose.

Scrambling refers to the process of rearranging elements of a message, data, or informationin a way that
makes it difficult to understand without the appropriate decryption key or algorithm. Its purpose is to
enhance security and privacy by ensuring that unauthorized and individuals cannot interpret the original
content.

10. Compare and contrast PCM and DM.

PCM is technique to change an analog signal to digital data and have three process which is sampling,
quantizing, encoding.

11. What are the differences between parallel and serial transmission?

Parallel : Send data n bits at a time using n channels.


Serial : Send data one bit follows another using one channel

12. List three different techniques in serial transmission and explain the differences.

• Asynchronous – The timing of signal is unimportant. A byte is sent with one start bit (0) at the
beginning and one or more stop bits (1) at the end of each byte.
• Synchronous – The bit stream is combined into longer frames , which may contain multiple bytes.
Bytes are sent one after another without start and stop bits or gap.
• Isochronous – All bits in the whole stream must be synchronized. It guarantee that the data arrive
a the fixed rate.
