Advantages/disadvantages/applications of various modulation schemes

1. DSB-SC Advantages Lower power consumption The modulation system is simple Better management of the frequency spectrum Low power consumption It is a compromise between DSB and SSB. Therefore it is easier to generate than SSB-SC Envelope detection is possible Increased immunity to noise Increased immunity to noise Power efficiency. System is the simplest Bandwidth efficiency Require more bandwidth An attractive alternative to SSB-SC. Sharp cutoff band-pass filters are not required. Increased selectivity against adjacent channels Power efficiency, Error detection and correction capability. Zero PSD at f=0 Transmits more bits in a symbol time. Disadvantages Complex detection Applications Analog TV systems: to transmit color information Two way radio Frequency division multiplexing Analog TV broadcast systems

The generation of exact SSB is rather difficult. Complex detection Demodulation system is still complex. Its bandwidth is about 25% greater than SSB-SC. Low power efficiency

Wireless broadcasting systems ATSC digital television standard Radio broadcasting; direct-satellite broadcasting data-communications systems Low speed communication

Require a larger bandwidth more complex receiving hardware Low bandwidth efficiency Low power efficiency Transmitted power is lower

12. SHD AM/FM RECEIVERS 13. LINE CODES

V-32 Telephone data/fax modems Satellite transmission of DTVB programs. Used in cable communication for Compared with SSB, QAM is more exacting in terms of the the transmission of DTV and carrier frequency and phase or internet traffic between cable modem and modem termination the requirement for a systems. distortion-less transmission medium Radio broadcasting Interference from signal frequencies close to the intermediate frequency Transmit only one bit of Optical communications information over the interval of Tb second Require more power (M2) less system complexity High rate data links
