Digital Modulation

This document discusses several digital modulation techniques used in digital communications including: - Amplitude Shift Keying (ASK) which represents binary values as different signal amplitudes. It is susceptible to noise but can achieve speeds up to 1200 bps. - Phase Shift Keying (PSK) which represents binary values by shifting the phase of the carrier signal. Binary PSK (BPSK) uses two phases while differential PSK (DPSK) compares the phase to the previous bit. - Quadrature Amplitude Modulation (QAM) which combines ASK and PSK by sending two signals simultaneously using orthogonal carriers, allowing for multilevel signaling and higher data rates over a given bandwidth. However, it also increases potential error rates

Amplitude Shift Keying (ASK)


In ASK, the two binary values are represented by to
different amplitudes of the carrier frequency
The resulting modulated signal for one bit time is
A cos(2f c t ), binary 1

Two binary values represented by two different

Differential PSK (DPSK)


In DPSK, the phase shift is with reference to the previous bit
transmitted rather than to some constant reference signal
Binary 0:signal burst with the same phase as the previous one
Binary 1:signal burst of opposite phase to the preceding one

Four-level PSK: Quadrature PSK


(QPSK)

More efficient use of bandwidth if each signal element


represents more than one bit

eg. shifts of /2 (90o)


each signal element represents two bits

QAM used on asymmetric digital subscriber line
(ADSL) and some wireless standards
combination of ASK and PSK
logical extension of QPSK
send two different signals simultaneously on
same carrier frequency
