Keying(ASK) Modulator and Demodulator
circuits

I Practical Significance
Amplitude-shift keying (ASK) is type of digital modulation that represents digital data as
variations in the amplitude of a carrier wave. The amplitude of an analog carrier signal varies
in accordance with the bit stream (modulating signal) where frequency and phase are keeping
constant .This practical is designed to explain how change of amplitude in to level corresponds
to logic 1 and logic 0.

• Handle instruments carefully.
• Follow ethical practices.

VII Minimum Theoretical Background


Any digital modulation scheme uses a finite number of distinct signals to represent digital data.
ASK uses a finite number of amplitudes, each assigned a unique pattern of binary digits. Each
amplitude encodes an equal number of bits. Each pattern of bits forms the symbol that is
represented by the particular amplitude. The demodulator is designed specifically for the
symbol-set used by the modulator, determines the amplitude of the received signal and maps
it back to the symbol it represents, thus recovering the original data. Frequency and phase of the
carrier are kept constant in ASK.

VII Minimum Theoretical Background


Frequency-shift keying (FSK) is a method of transmitting digital signals. The two binary states,
logic 0 (low) and 1 (high), are each represented by an analog waveform. Logic 0 is represented
by a wave at a specific frequency, and logic 1 is represented by a wave at a different frequency.
The simplest FSK is binary FSK (BFSK). BFSK uses a pair of discrete frequencies to transmit

Maharashtra State Board of Technical Education 112


binary (0s and 1s) information. With this scheme, the "1" is called the mark frequency and the
"0" is called the space frequency.

VII Minimum Theoretical Background


Phase Shift Keying (PSK) is the digital modulation technique in which the phase of the carrier
signal is changed by varying the sine and cosine inputs at a particular time with respect to the
given digital input Figure 16.1 shows BPSK modulator.

Maharashtra State Board of Technical Education 121


Figure 16.1: Generation of PSK/ BPSK Modulator
[Courstey:https://www.tutorialspoint.com/digital_communication/digital_communication_phase_shift_keying.htm]

In BPSK modulation, phase of the carrier signal is changed according to the data bit to be
transmitted. Keeping its frequency and amplitude constant as shown in Figure 16.2

Figure 16.2: Waveform of BPSK modulation


[Courstey:https://www.tutorialspoint.com/digital_communication/digital_communication_phase_shift_keying.htm]

BPSK demodulator
Figure 16.3 shows BPSK demodulator. The BPSK modulating signal is demodulated with a
synchronous detection system. The synchronous detection system uses a modulator to multiply
the received signal and regenerated carrier wave. The frequency and phase of the regenerated
carrier wave must match (synchronize with) the carrier wave used on the transmitting end.

Practical No.11: Performance of Quadrature amplitude Modulation (QAM)
modulator and demodulator circuits.

I Practical Significance
QAM is a method of combining two amplitude-modulated (AM) signals into a single channel,
thereby doubling the effective bandwidth. QAM is used in wireless applications like the PAL
and NTSC television systems, where the different channels, which are provided by QAM,
enable the transmission of the components of Chroma or colour information to TV sets. It is
often used for radio communication systems from regular cellular to LTE including Wi-Max
and Wi-Fi. In this practical students are able to view hoe two signals (I, Q) gets modulated on
career and 900shifted careers.

II Relevant Program Outcomes (POs)


• Discipline knowledge: Apply Electronics and Telecommunication engineering knowledge
to solve broad-based Electronics and Telecommunication engineering related problems.
• Experiments and practice: Plan to perform experiments and practices to use the results
to solve broad-based Electronics and Telecommunication engineering problems.
• Engineering tools: Apply relevant Electronics and Telecommunication technologies and
tools with an understanding of the limitations.

Competency: “Maintain basic digital communication systems.”
• Identify different components, IC’s and different blocks on the trainer kit
Make the connection as per the given experimental set up Test the output
signals at the different testing points.
• Interpret the result as per the observations

IV Relevant Course Outcomes


Maintain systems based on digital modulation techniques.

V Practical Outcome
Test the performance of Quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) modulator and
demodulator circuits.

VI Relevant Affective domain unrelated Outcome(s)


Follow safe practices.
Handle instruments carefully.
Follow ethical practices.

VII Minimum Theoretical Background


Quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) is a technique used to transmit two digital bit streams
or two analog signals by modulating or changing the amplitudes of two carrier waves so that
they differ in phase by 90 degrees, a quarter of a cycle, hence the name quadrature. One signal
is called the "I" signal and the other is the "Q" signal, which can be mathematically represented
by a cosine and a sine wave, respectively. QAM combines the two carriers and sends the
combined signals in a single transmission to be separated and extracted at the destination. The

Maharashtra State Board of Technical Education 153


signals are demodulated, and the data are then extracted from each and recombined to form the
original modulating information.

Practical No.14: Performance for 2- input frequency division
Multiplexing (FDM) circuit.

I Practical Significance
In Frequency-division multiplexing (FDM) numerous signals are combined for transmission
on a single communication line or channel. Each signal is assigned a different frequency (sub
channel) within the main channel. It is used in public telephones and in cable TV systems and
in AM and FM broadcasting as it does not need synchronization between its transmitter and
receiver. It is simpler and easy for demodulation. In this practical, students will mix two or more
analog signals using FDM multiplexer and retrieve the original signal using FDM de-multiplxer.

II Relevant Program Outcomes (POs)


• Discipline knowledge: Apply Electronics and Telecommunication engineering knowledge
to solve broad-based Electronics and Telecommunication engineering related problems.

Multiplex and demultiplex digital signal.

V Practical Outcome
Test the performance for 2- input frequency division multiplexing (FDM) circuit.

VI Relevant Affective domain related Outcome(s)


Follow safe practices.
Handle instruments carefully.
Follow ethical practices.

VII Minimum Theoretical Background


The operation of frequency division multiplexing (FDM) is based on sharing the available
bandwidth of a communication channel among the signals to be transmitted. Each signal to be
transmitted modulates a different carrier. The modulation can be AM, SSB, FM or PM. The
modulated signals are then added together to form a composite signal which is transmitted over
a single channel. Generally, the FDM systems are used for multiplexing the analog
signal.Figure22.1 and figure22.2 shows FDM transmitter and FDM receiver respectively.

Practical No. 15: Generation of TDM signal using relevant
simulation software..

I Practical Significance
Time division multiplexing (TDM) is a communications process that transmits two or more
streaming digital signals over a common channel. In TDM, incoming signals are divided into
equal fixed-length time slots. After multiplexing, these signals are transmitted over a shared
medium and reassembled into their original format after demultiplexing. Time slot selection is
directly proportional to overall system efficiency. Time division multiplexing (TDM) is also
known as a digital circuit switched.
Time division multiplexing (TDM) has many applications in ISDN telephone lines, PSTN. In
this practical, students will generate TDM signal and reconstruct it using simulation software.

Practical No. 16: Generation of FDM signal using relevant simulation software

I Practical Significance
In telecommunications, frequency-division multiplexing (FDM) is a technique by which the
total bandwidth available in a communication medium is divided into a series of
nonoverlapping frequency sub-bands, each of which is used to carry a separate signal. This
allows a single transmission medium such as the radio spectrum, a cable or optical fiber to be
shared by multiple independent signals. In this practical, students will generate a FDM signal
using simulation software and reconstruct the same.

II Relevant Program Outcomes (POs)


• Discipline knowledge: Apply Electronics and Telecommunication engineering knowledge
to solve broad-based Electronics and Telecommunication engineering related problems.
• Experiments and practice: Plan to perform experiments and practices to use the results
to solve broad-based Electronics and Telecommunication engineering problems.
• Engineering tools: Apply relevant Electronics and Telecommunication technologies and
tools with an understanding of the limitations.

III Competency and Practical Skills


This practical is expected to develop the following skills for the industry identified competency
‘Maintain basic digital communication systems’.
• Use basic programming skills to simulate communication system.
Debug and execute the program Interpret the output.
• Calculate various parameters.

IV Relevant Course Outcomes


Multiplex and demultiplex digital signals.

V Practical Outcome
Generate a FDM signal using relevant simulation software.

VI Relevant Affective domain related Outcome(s)


Select proper programming environment.
Follow ethical practices

VII Minimum Theoretical Background


The operation of frequency division multiplexing (FDM) is based on sharing the available
bandwidth of a communication channel among the signals to be transmitted. Each signal to be
transmitted modulates a different carrier. The modulation can be AM, SSB, FM or PM. The
modulated signals are then added together to form a composite signal which is transmitted over
a single channel. Generally, the FDM systems are used for multiplexing the analog signal.
