Module 1
Introduction of Telecommunications Engineering
Objectives
By studying this Introduction module, you are expected to know in general about
Telecommunication Engineering. Topics that will be introduced is about the development of the
Cellular Telecommunications Technology and its application in daily life.
Classical Era: Wired Telecommunications Network
Today we see how the development of mobile handsets are becoming one of the most
popular gadgets in the world. It is estimated that in 2008, there were 1.4 billion television sets in
the world and the number of mobile phones has reached three times that number. Institute of
Engineering and Technology estimates that by the end of 2012 there were more mobile phones
than the number of human population on earth.
Telecommunications means of distance communication using a specific medium.
Communication can be divided into three types, namely:
1. Communication One Direction (simplex). Examples: pagers, television, radio.
2. Two-Way Communication (duplex). For example: phone
3. Semi Two-Way Communication (Half Duplex). For example: walkie talkie
Telecommunications themselves began to grow since Alexander Graham Bell invented the
telephone. Telecommunications eventually evolving to enter the era of mobile telecommunications.
Mobile telephony or mobile telecommunications technology enabling wireless communication to
receive or make phone calls. Mobile telecommunications considers each geographical area made
up of small cells that can be interconnected. Each cell was covered by local radio transmitter and
receiver that is strong enough to deal with cellular phone itself, in this case by using a mobile
terminal. A collection of these cells form the radio access network and the radio frequency used for
transmitting calls and data used between the cells. Voice and data to be exchanged is transmitted
through the mobile network that consists of a radio access network and the core network of the
mobile operator.
Telephony system began to develop in 1838 when Samuel Morse invented the signaling
system of dots and dashes to the alphabet so complex messages can be sent and received more
easily. Just six years later, the system is backed up by the US Congress until the system is
Laboratory Manual Telecomunication Engineering 2015 10
installed the first telegraph line in the world with copper wires between Washington and Baltimore
as far as 40 miles.
At that point, the copper cables ranging connect various major cities in the United States
were built and operated by Western Union, which is still active today as an interstate money
transfer agent. Copper cabling system is also being developed in Europe and began the era of
information exchange via copper cable systems.
Figure 1. 1. The Trans Atlantic cable is operated by Great Eastern.
In 1851, copper cables under the sea began operating between France and Britain then
followed transatlantic submarine cable in 1858. The level of complexity of the submarine cable is
high enough to make cooperation project Europe-USA has become one of the major engineering
projects of its time , Needed five tries to get a compact submarine cable completed. Unfortunately,
these cables are used by engineers with great enthusiasm that transmit voltage too high via this
cable to a system failure just three weeks after the operation. In 1865, the construction of the Trans
Atlantic submarine cable which both started as far as 1200 miles, but still failed. The third project
was initiated in 1886 by Brunel's Great Eastern as far as 1686 nautical miles between Ireland and
Newfoundland and proceeded without major obstacles. After that, Great Eastern began to manage
this network and divide it into two and there are two operating transatlantic cables.
The next major development in 1876, Alexander Graham Bell experimented with a
diaphragm vibrate a needle on the water to vary the current in the circuit, which is known as a
liquid transmitter. With this device, voice conversations over copper wires occur first in the world
even if only between two adjacent rooms with a tool called the telephone. Bell then repair these
findings for five months and ultimately can conduct voice conversations as far as five miles.
Western Union and then develop their Morse telegraphy system via the phone network. New Era:
Wireless Telecommunications Networks
In 1880, Bell also made the first wireless communication using a device Photophone.
Photophone using a beam of light to deliver voice signals between two buildings within 215 meters.
Laboratory Manual Telecomunication Engineering 2015 11
The use of the atmosphere as a medium for the propagation of the wave which has not been
developed at that time led to the current wireless communication technology was not developed
until the fiber optic cable technology developed in the 1920s by the US military. The new theory of
the laser was developed by Einstein in 1917 and requires a long time until the laser models that
operate properly produced.
Figure 1. 1. The First Microphone
Post World War II, the wireless phone was developed by AT & T, United States. At first,
the mobile phone like a walkie-talkie-like communications in which only occur alternately in one
direction (simplex). Users also have to look for available frequencies between 35 MHz - 150 MHz
to hold a telephone conversation. To enable phone conversation, the mobile phone users have to
carry a very large battery weighs up to 35 kg.
In England in 1912, the General Post Office is the first company to build and operate
infrastructure telegraphy and telephony calls using a commercial copper wires. In 1981, the
General Post Office was split into two, namely the Post Office and British Telecom. British Telecom
is the parent company Cellnet which gave entry to the mobile phone market is very profitable.
Cellnet himself later changed to O2.
Figure 1. 2.Fiber Optic Wire
In 1970, a fiber optic cable was discovered by Corning Glass Works and has been proven
to deliver signals with speeds of 45 Mbps by using a signal amplifier every 10 km. In 1981, fiber
optic cable single-mode find and deliver new breakthrough in signal transmission fiber optic cable.
Laboratory Manual Telecomunication Engineering 2015 12
In 1987, the second generation of fiber-optic cable operating at speeds of 1.5 Gbps with
reinforcement at every 50 km. In 1988, Trans Atlantic fiber optic cable was developed. The third
generation technology fiber optic cables capable of operating at a speed of about 2.5 Gbps with
reinforcement at every 100 km.
Explosions of Technology: Cellular Communications
Cell phone was first launched in 1985 in the UK by Vodaphone and Cellnet, which later the
two companies merged into O2. However, the mobile phone is not very practical because it weighs
20 kg with a very large battery systems. At that time, we could see the entrepreneurs carrying two
bags at once, namely file bag and telephone equipment.
In 1992, fourth-generation technology is developed with fiber optic cable Wavelength
Division Multiplexing principle which makes it able to double the speed twice every six months until
2006 has reached a speed of 14 Tbps with boosters every 160 km. This optical fiber cable
technology that allows us to enjoy the cable TV and broadband services (broadband) to various
regions. However, the cost to deploy broadband technology based on fiber optic cables is huge
and the risk is too high. This causes the need for broadband wireless communications is very high
until now.
Figure 1. 3. Development of Mobile Cellular Phone
In the previous description, we have discussed about the birth and development process in
brief communication with the wired network since the invention of Morse code in the 1800s to the
development of optical fiber communication system that began in the late 20th century. When the
fiber optic cable is able to conduct a conversation with a very large number of simultaneous, we
also need to look at the first steps of wireless personal communications that subsequently will be
an explosion of technology that is rapidly until now.
In principle, there is a very important difference between the first generation mobile
communication system with subsequent developments. In the first generation (1G), wireless
communications are still using analog systems. Sound transmitted directly as spoken by humans.
The development of 2G and next generation network transformation into a digital system, where
Laboratory Manual Telecomunication Engineering 2015 13
the voice is sampled and broken into data before it is transmitted. The sending side will then
reorder the data packets into voice intact that we can hear. This is the beginning of the era of
digital communication is growing very rapidly.
The first generation of wireless telecommunications system was launched in Japan in 1979
by NTT and capable of covering 20 million inhabitants Tokyo with 23 base transmission station
(BTS) and finally in 1984 had been able to cover the whole country of Japan. 1G networks began
in Europe by Nordic Mobile Telephone and in 1981 has included wilayan Sweden, Finland and
Denmark. In 1983, Motorola began the development of cellular networks in America and on
January 1st 1985, Vodaphone launch the era of mobile phones in the UK.
Figure 1. 4. Cellular Phone developed by Motorola
1G early generations developed in the 80s and still use analog systems. Analogue
systems using FDMA (Frequency Division Multiple Access), which allows to distribute the
allocation of frequencies to each customer in the cell. The technology used in analog system is
commonly known as AMPS (Advanced Mobile Phone Service) operated in the 800 MHz band.
1G is a shortage of generation size is too big to handle, battery performance is poor, traffic
capacity is small, and the sound is not clear. At that time the phone is used is still large enough
and beterainya relatively wasteful.
The second generation of mobile telecommunications is currently digitlal entering an era in
which Europe began to find a GSM (Global System for Mobile Communication) and the US began
to develop cdmaOne (Code Division Multiple Access). GSM is a TDMA (Time Division Multiple
Access) using the carrier band of 200 KHz. With GSM, radio frequency bands used for reusable
carrier during a radio transmitter to the same frequency are not in the adjacent cell. While
cdmaOne using different technologies, namely spreadspectrum, where the radio spectrum is
divided into multiple carrier width of the ribbon reach 1.23MHz. In CDMA, the user using the same
frequency at the same time making it more efficient.
GSM technology is currently the most widely used in the world because it has a very wide
roaming capability. CDMA advantages compared to GSM is the sound clearer, larger capacity, and
the ability to access higher data.
Laboratory Manual Telecomunication Engineering 2015 14
This 2G network SMS service start in 1993 and developed into a prepaid system began in
the late 1990s. Nordic Mobile Telephone begin introducing a system of payment by mobile phone
with the vehicle parking systems and vending machines Coca-Cola so the technology is a
promising new method of payment in 1998. The first commercial system that works like a credit
card began in 1999 in the Philippines by two operators , the Globe and Smart.
Advertising services on mobile phones first appeared in Finland in 2000 that allows mobile
phone users receive the latest news of a brand that wants to follow. This service is also open sales
opportunities ringtone to individual consumers. The ringtone was developed from monoponik to
become polyphonic. Polyphonic ringtone then began shifting with MP3 technology that developed
later. In 1999, NTT DoCoMo of Japan presenting the first mobile internet service in the world, but
the speed of service is still limited because of the technological limitations of 2G.
Since very little data access capabilities of GSM, reaching only 9.6 Kbps, began to develop
GPRS (General Packet Radio Data Services). Then the technology was introduced Wireless
Application Protocol (WAP), but the results are not so satisfactory. Until finally GPRS was
developed to be able to access data at speeds up to 115 Kbps and throughput only 20-30 Kbps.
GPRS also enables Internet access from anywhere and in real time. GPRS is less desirable
because the price is quite expensive at that time. Growing technology again is EDGE (Enhanced
Data for Global Evolusion) who only had implemented a minute, at speeds up to 3-4 times the
speed of GPRS.
The development of 3G services, initiated by NTT DoCoMo in early 2001 and the first
commercial 3G network was launched in October 2001 with WCDMA (Wideband Code Division
Multiple Access). In 2002, the 3G network was launched in South Korea and in the United States
named Monet. Both use a standard CDMA / EV-DO which is the Betamax of 3G and Monet also
had collapsed. The second network with WCDMA standard launched by Vodaphone KK (currently
known as Softbank) in Japan. At the same time in Europe, also developed by Three / Hutchison
Group in Italy and the UK.
The third generation is a continuation of GSM, GPRS, EDGE, and CDMA generations ever
before. This advanced technology called the Universal Mobile Telecommunications Service
(UMTS). The goal is to provide data access speed is higher achieve 385 kbps at a frequency of 5
KHz. The selected modulation technique is Wide-CDMA UMTS. Used on WCDMA radio frequency
of 5 MHz in the 1900 MHz band. HSDPA (High Speed Downlink Packet Access) is a continuation
of UMTS that uses radio frequency of 5 MHS by reaching a speed of 2 Mbps. To apply the
necessary UMTS greater costs due to pay a license to the government and the 3G vendor, adding
the base station, and the cost of capex (capital expenditure) and OPEX (operational expenditure)
others. Application of 3G among others for video calls, live streaming, and other broadband
multimedia services.
In 2003, 4 re-launched 3G services in Europe, two of which use WCDMA technology and
the other two use CDMA / EV-DO. WCDMA more developed than CDMA / EV-DO for nearly two-
Laboratory Manual Telecomunication Engineering 2015 15
thirds of the mobile telecommunications market and adopt this technology has become the industry
standard technology for 3G services. Discovery technology HSDPA (High Speed Downlink Packet
Access) enables mobile internet services faster with a speed of 1.8 Mbps to 14.4 Mbps. The
HSDPA service and then continue to grow until its own has become a lifestyle for some people.
Then the third generation is enriched again with the release of generation 3.5G. Speeds up to 3.6
Mbps so that it can serve faster multimedia communications, such as Internet access and video
sharing.
New Needs: Multimedia Broadband Communication
Figure 1. 7. Smart Phone.
Broadband internet service starts with the use of dongles or what is known as a modem so
that we can enjoy the high speed internet service on laptops flexible. Then the development of
technology to make cellular phone capable of functioning as an "office" with electronic mail
services and organizer. Currently, real-time video stream service we can also enjoy the hands
easily. In fact, video conversation also had grown although its development is less well received. At
this time was, we finally know the mobile phone as a smartphone, smart phone.
This time we started to move towards 4G services in the second decade of this millennium.
4G standards have extremely high data rates up to 100 Mbps on the condition of high mobility (in a
car or train) and up to 1 Gbps at a low mobility condition (eg pedestrian environment or stationary
users). This high speed technology uses the principle of OFDMA (Orthogonal Frequency Division
Multiple Access) with various encoding algorithms to high speed was achieved. Some of the
advantages in addition to high-speed 4G technology include architectural flat structure for all the
technologies and low latency.
4G technology known first is WiMAX (Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access) in
2006 that offers speed up to 128 Mbps in download and 56 Mbps flow in the upload stream.
WiMAX slowly abandoned due to inefficiency and lack of support services with high mobility. LTE
later present in 2009 that offers speed up to 100 Mbps in download and 50 Mbps flow in the upload
stream. Also known as HSPA + (High Speed Packet Access), which operates at speeds up to 84
Mbps in download and 22 Mbps flow in the upload stream. LTE developments are increasingly
Laboratory Manual Telecomunication Engineering 2015 16
supported by the development of MIMO antenna system (multi input multi output) and smart
antenna which can improve the performance of high-speed services.
In the United States, AT & T, Verizon, and Sprint has started a network based on LTE and
operate optimally in 2013. Then there were plans LightSquared will use satellites to reach 92% of
the US population with LTE service in 2015, although with this technology speed will be a separate
consideration.In Indonesia, commercial 4G service started in 2010 by PT. Firstmedia, Tbk with
trademark Sitra. Sitra WiMAX provides high-speed broadband services in Indonesia's first wireless
in congested areas such as Greater Jakarta, North Sumatra, and Aceh. Sitra itself is an expensive
BWA license holders in the Greater Jakarta area. But with the development of technology, WiMAX
is becoming obsolete because of the huge costs and other technology constraints to be replaced
by LTE. Telkomsel became the first operator to conduct trials of 4G LTE network at the APEC
conference in Bali in October 2013. The network is operated at a frequency of 1800 MHz with a
bandwidth of about 5 MHz.At the end of 2013, PT. Internux then launched the first commercial LTE
4G services since Nov. 14. 2013 at the Greater Jakarta area coverage. The market potential is
expected to reach 30 million people. 4G LTE technology used to use the principles of TDD-LTE
(Time Division Duplex-LTE) at a frequency of 2300 MHz.
4G development in Indonesia is still impressed road in places. The main issues that block
is the issue of government regulation that is not well finished. Besides placing the appropriate
frequency for 4G services is still unclear. In the frequency band above 1800 MHz is still necessary
to reset the frequency or frequency refarming, while the 700 MHz frequency band is still
constrained analog television system that has not been moved to digital television.Today also
started to develop 5G services are much more sophisticated. In contrast to 2G services to 4G, 5G
is a radio technology that will replace the single access makrosel. 5G service is a combination of
access technologies are licensed and unlicensed radio access or optimization. 5G promising high-
speed service with latency to zero. This technology is supported by the development of MIMO
antenna technology and the use of millimeter waves for communications applications.

Module 2
Transmission Lines
In this assignment the measurement of voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR) of waveguide
components is undertaken using a waveguide slotted-line and probe detector. Voltage standing
wave ratio, invariably abbreviated to VSWR, is one of the fundamental parameters used in
specifying component performance. It quantifies the degree of mismatch a component presents to
the waveguide feed line.
The concept of impedance in waveguides and the use of the Smith Chart in impedance
and matching calculations are introduced. The measurement of impedance of a waveguide
component is carried out and the results used to determine the position of a capacitative probe to
effect matching.
Objectives
After following this lab, you are expected to:
Understand the concept of Voltage Standing Wave Ratio in the transmission line;
Understand the concept of impedance and admittance in the transmission line
Understand how to use Smith Chart to determine the value of impedance and
admittance in the transmission line.
Fundamental Theory
Fundamental of Transmission Lines
Three types of channels transmisidual plural-conductor encountered are twin lead, coaxial
and microstrip .The transmission line is quite familiar twin lead is used to connect the antenna to
the TV aerial, while the coaxial typically used to connect devices with high frequency. In the coaxial
line, cable consists of three layers: the innermost part jejari a conductor, dielectric layer berjejari b,
and the conductor layer on its outer part. Microstrip widely used in circuit board level. In Microstrip
line consists of copper that coats the substrate of alumina (Al2O3).

When a signal travels along a conductor, it will naturally develop resistance. This
resistance is connected in series and its value is very small for an excellent conductor. However,
the resistance value is still there and should be taken into account. Also based on the legal theory
of Ampere and Biot-Savart, there is a series inductance along the transmission line.

Module 3
Amplitude Modulation
Modulation is the process of modifying the carrier signal to the information signal so that
the information signal can be transmitted properly. In general, modulation involves the modification
of the carrier signal having a frequency higher (bandpass signal) to changes in signal
characteristics messages from resources (baseband signal), carrier signal is referred to as the
modulated signal (modulated signal), while the message signal is referred to as modulation signal
(modulating signal). Demodulation is the reverse process of modulation, which is the process of
extracting the information signal from the baseband carrier signal so that the information can be
received, processed, and interpreted at the receiving end (also known as a sink).
Figure 3. 1. Ilustration of Modulation and demodulation process
Objectives
In this practical, you will learn some types of analog modulation, especially AM modulation. After
do this practical you are supposed to understand about:
Types and process of AM analog modulation.
AM signal demodulation
Fundamental Theory
Introduction Modulation Techniques
Modulation is a very important process in a communication system, particularly wireless
communication. Modulation is key among them because:
Laboratory Manual Telecomunication Engineering 2015 30
1. Modulation allows the antenna size becomes smaller, as the signal frequency becomes
higher. For an efficient radiation, measuring the size of the antenna should be λ / 10 or
more (ideally λ / 4), where λ is the wavelength of the signal to be radiated.
2. Modulation allows any technique or multiplex multiple paths so as to save resources
existing frequencies.
3. Modulation allows the channel assignment, for example in FM radio that separate radio
channels based on the frequency of the carrier signal. As an example for the RTC UI on
107.9 MHz, MBS at 102.2 MHz, 90.0 MHz Elshinta, and others.
A signal (carrier) can generally be expressed as:
tfAAtc ccc 2coscos)( (3.1)
where c (t) is the instantaneous wave function (instantaneous value), AC is the maximum
amplitude value [Volt], and cos θ is the angle that is divided into frequency components,
namely fc [Hertz] and phase components, namely φ [degrees ].
Based on the type of signal information, modulation is divided into analog
modulation in which a signal information in the form of analog signals and digital
modulation in which the information signal in the form of digital bits. The carrier signal is
always analog, because naturally a signal that can be transmitted in the air is an analog
signal. Based components of the equation, modulation is divided into amplitude
modulation (amplitude modulation, AM) and modulation angle (angle modulation). Angle
modulation itself subdivided based components, namely the frequency modulation
(frequency modulation, FM) and phase modulation (phase modulation, AM). AM
modulation AM then developed into a full carrier double side band (DSB-FC), double side
band suppressed carrier (DSB-SC), single side band (SSB), and vestigial side band
(VSB). Modulation FM and PM are divided by the width of the frequency spectrum owned
into a narrowband (NB) and wideband (WB).
Amplitude Modulation Process
At AM DSB-FC modulation, the carrier signal is :

where tfVV mmc 2cos an envelope function equation and tfc2cos is a sinusoidal
wave equation. If the value of VC is issued, then the equation 2.4. can be written back
into:
v tftfmVtV cmAMcam 2cos2cos1)( (3.5)
where mAM is called as modulation index or mAM = Vm/VC. Modulation index determines the
quality of AM modulated signals. By using trigonometric identities:

Figure 3. 3. Process AM modulation in the time domain proportionately and clear.
Figure 3. 4. Waveforms AM modulated signals proportional and clear.
The quality of signal modulation results can be seen from the indicators AM
modulation index. mAM modulation index values range between 0-1 or 0% - 100%, namely
1. mAM< 1 called under-modulated.
2. mAM = 1 called fully-modulated.
3. mAM> 1 called over-modulated.
In the over-modulated condition, there is an overlap phase in the envelope so the
recipient can not extract the information signal of the carrier signal due to signal distortion.
AM modulated signal waveform for different modulation index values shown in Figure 3.5.

Figure 3. 5. waveform signal modulated AM with modulation index values are different.
The quality of AM modulated signals can also be seen from the side of power
which must be seen in the frequency domain. To change the signal from the time
domain to the frequency domain, as you saw in the previous lecture, Fourier
transform method is used. Fourier transformation is used as the modulated signal
AM is considered as a signal that is continuous and has a certain period.

where δ (f+fc) is a unit impulse function and M (f) is the spectrum of the message signal.
Figure 3.6. shows the spectrum of AM modulated signals where magnitude spectrum is a
function of the triangle. As seen, the spectrum of the AM signal consists of an impulse at
the frequency of the carrier signal with two doubles sideband spectrum message signal.

In Equation 2.8, it appears there are three different frequency components,
namely:

2. tffmV

as lower sideband signals that carry information.
3. tffmV

as upper sideband signals that carry information.
The presence of the three components of the frequency motivate the evolution of
the AM modulation techniques. Signal carrier that does not carry any information signal
having the greatest power based on the equation 2.14. and 2:18 so that its presence can
be suppressed. This raises the DSB technique suppressed carrier (DSB-SC) to reduce
wasted power. The second component of the signal sideband carries the same
information, but they occupy a wide bandwidth. This motivates the emergence of SSB
technique, in which only one sideband transmit information so as to reduce wasted power
and also reduces the use of bandwidhth too wide. SSB raises new problems when the
single sideband noise or distortion attacked throughout the course of transmission. No
back-up of information transmitted by SSB so appear VSB technique, where one
singleband have full power and the other has a lower power as a back-up information.
Laboratory Manual Telecomunication Engineering 2015 36
Figure 3. 7. Generation of SSB AM signal using (a) Filter SSB and (b) Balanced modulator which is a series of center-tapped transformers.
Balanced Modulator
A balanced modulator is used to generate a DSBSC signal. it suppresses the
carrier, leaving only the upper and lower sidebands which are the sum and difference
frequencies of the carrier and modulating signals respectively. The simplest form of a
balanced modulator is the diode ring or lattice modulator as shown in figure 3.8. Note that
both connections in (a) and (b) are identical; the configuration shown in (a) where the
diodes are arranged in a ring, shows how the name is derived
Figure 3.8 Balanced Modulator Circuit
The operation of the ring modulator is rather simple. The modulating signal is
applied to the input transformer, T1, while the carrier sine wave is applied to the center
Laboratory Manual Telecomunication Engineering 2015 37
taps of the input and output transformer. The carrier serves as a source of forward and
reverse bias for the diodes which function like swithces to conect the modulating signal to
the output transformer, T2. The result is that DSBSC signal will be generated at the output
transformer.
For ease in understanding, let us trace its operation though one cycle of the carrier
sine wave. When the carrier polarity is as shown in figure 3.9(a), diodes D1 and D2 are
forward biased, whereas diodes D3 and D4 are reversed biased. The forward biased
diodes conduct while the reverse biased diodes act like open circuits. The circuit may be
visualized as that in figure 3.9(b). Ignoring the modulating signal for the time being and if
the centre tap positions of the carrier oscillator are precise, the current that flows in the
upper part of the transformer primary winding at T2 and the current that flows in the lower
part of the transformer produce equal but opposite magnetic fields which cancel each
other and hence no current is induced in the secondary winding at T2;therefore, there is
zero output. This is how the carrier is suppressed in a balanced modulator. Now consider
the presence of a modulating signal. The modulating signal will appear across the
secondary winding of the transformer T1 and get conducted by diodes D1 and D2 to the
primary windings of transformer T2 which in turn induces an output at T2.
Figure 3.9 Simplified circuit Configuration during first half cycle of the carrier sine wave
When the carrier polarity is changed to that shown in Figure 3.10(a), diodes D3
and D4 are forward biased whereas diodes D1 and D2 are reverse biased. An equivalent
simplified connection is shown in figure 3.10(b). Similiarly, the modulating signal gets
conducted to the primary windings of transformer T2, but this time in the reverse direction
due to the connections of diodes D3 and D4. Hence the induced output at T2 is inverted.
The carrier remains suppressed at the output.
Laboratory Manual Telecomunication Engineering 2015 38
Figure 3.10 Simplified circuit Configuration during second half cycle of the carrier sine wave
The processes explained above repeat throughout the many carrier oscillations.
The result is a DSBSC signal the output as shown in figure 3.11. Observe the following
about DSBSC waveform
It is oscillating at the carrier frequency
Its envelope is not the shape of the modulating signal
A phase reverseal occurs at the time where the modulating signal crosses the
zero line

Demodulation Process
AM demodulation process can be divided into::
1. Demodulation with Envelope or Non-Coherent
In the non-coherent demodulation, used detector casing (envelope). Sheath detector
consists of a step-up transformer to raise the voltage level, the diodes to rectify the
signal, and the RC filter.
Figure 3. 12. Detector Casing
The signal must be demodulated signal with the value of the modulation index m <1.
Here is a demodulation process..
Figure 3. 13. Demodulation Process Noh Coherent with m<1
If m> 1, there will be an exchange phase in the casing and cause distorted signal and
can not be interpreted on the receiver side.
Figure 3. 14. Demodulation Process Noh Coherent with m>1
.
2. Synchronous or Coherent Demodulation
In the synchronous demodulation, used a series of phase-locked loop (PLL) as a local
oscillator (LO). AM modulated signal into the demodulator circuit, then resurrected
from the LO signal corresponding to the desired carrier frequency. If the carrier
frequency according to the LO frequency, the signal will be filtered out and then
interpreted as signaling information. This principle is used in a conventional radio,

where you have to perform seek tuning or carrier frequency in accordance with twirling
LO knob on the radio.

Frequency Modulation
Objectives
In this practical, you will learn some types of analog modulation, especially FM modulation.
After do this practical you are supposed to understand about:
Types and process of FM analog modulation.
Differences between analog modulation of AM and FM
Fundamental Theory
Introduction
FM modulation is a modulation technique that is the most popular analog compared AM,
especially in the radio system applications. In the FM modulation, the amplitude of the carrier
signal is made constant, while the frequency of the carrier signal is varied to change the amplitude
of the information signal. Thus, the information on the FM modulation signal contained in the
component angle. This causes the FM has many advantages compared to AM, which are:
1. Immunity against noise on FM modulation is better than AM. It is caused by signals on the
information contained in the AM modulation amplitude and signal quality is strongly
influenced by the level of amplitude. Amplitude as known to be extremely susceptible to
noise, so we attacked signal noise and amplitude decreased, it is not impossible that the
transmitted information signal becomes distorted or lost altogether. FM signals are not
affected by variations in the amplitude of only using the amplitude threshold as a guide so
that FM is more resistant to atmospheric noise or impulses that can cause large
fluctuations in the amplitude of the signal. Threshold FM FM signal also causes more
resistant to noise burst.
2. FM allows the value of the quality of the measured signal as signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) for
the better, although FM occupies a wider bandwidth than AM.
3. The FM signal has a constant envelope so that the transmitted power more efficiently.
4. FM has a capture nature effect, whereby if there are two or more signals at the same
frequency into the FM receiver, then only the strongest signal to be received and other
signals will be rejected. This causes the FM is more resistant to co-channel interference
than AM will always receive all signals including the interference signal is weak.
Compared with AM, FM signal also has weakness include:
Laboratory Manual Telecomunication Engineering 2015 44
1. FM modulation require greater bandwidth than AM to generate capture effect and reduce
noise.
2. Equipment of FM transmitter and the receiver is far more complex than AM.
3. Reach FM signal closer than AM, because the frequencies used by FM higher so that the
wavelength is shorter than the AM signal which is longer so that it can be reflected through
the ionosphere to a more distant.
Modulation Process of FM
Suppose carrier signal is :
tωV=tv ccc cos (4.1)
FM signal basic equation is :
t+fπV=tv ccs frekuensideviasi 2cos (4.2)
wherein the frequency deviation depends on m (t). Frequency carrier signal will fluctuate, so that
the instantaneous carrier signal equation can be written as:
=tvs icicic φV=tπfV=tωV cos2coscos (4.3)
φi is the instantaneous angle tπf=tω ii 2 and fi is the instantaneous frequency.
Because tπf=φ ii 2 , then:

By using a Bessel function expansion, the frequency spectrum of the FM signal can be
obtained. In Figure 4.3. visible illustration of the frequency spectrum of the FM signal and shows
that the FM signal occupies a bandwidth wide enough compared with the AM signal.

The value of each sideband magnitude can be seen in table Bessel functions for each
specific modulation index values as shown in Figure 4.4.

Figure 4. 4. Table Bessel functions for each particular value of the modulation index. .
Wide bandwidth FM signal can be calculated by Carson rule approach, namely:
mc ffBW 2 (4.15)
With this approach, because the length of the bandwidth of the FM signal is infinite. In the better
known term partner FM sideband than LSB and USB and bandwidth is not calculated from the LSB
to the USB.
FM signal with modulation index values are fairly small (β <0.3) referred to as narrowband
FM which only has 2 significant sideband pairs. While the FM signal with β> 0.3 will have more
than 2 significant sideband pairs and is referred to as wideband FM.
Processes on non linear FM so that the superposition principle can not be used. When the
message signal is a signal with a frequency much like the human voice or music, the analysis
becomes very complicated. In the calculation of the FM signal, has always assumed the message
signal is a single tone with the frequency used is the maximum frequency of the message signal.
Based on the equation 4.13., It can be seen that the maximum value of all components is

Telecommunications science are always trying to provide long-distance communications
services. These services can be private or open to public access. Modern telecommunication
services of the oldest and very commonly used is the telephone service. Layananan analog two-

This is a simplified circuit of the whole TELEPHONE to demonstrate the pirinciples of

switching centre.
Figure 5.1 Basic Telephony system
To build communication systems that succeed, in addition to the topology supported central
and good transmission line, also there must be procedures for call control are referred to as
signaling. On the phone there is a section that regulates signaling function, namely the switch hook,
keypad and allerter. The switch hook signaling process begins when you first lifted the telephone
receiver. Hook switch circuit functions are:

Hook switch serves to connect and disconnect the phone from the network. Into the
receiver there is an audio transducer, which is an electronic device that serves to convert sound
energy into electrical energy or vice versa. Audio transducer device is a microphone and Speaker
voice.
Microphone function convert acoustic signals into electrical signals through the diaphragm
contained him. Among these are the type of microphone in mikfofon dynamic, electric condenser,
ribbon, and a piezoelectric crystal microphone. The following is the construction of a dynamic
microphone.
Laboratory Manual Telecomunication Engineering 2015 53
Figure 5. 3.Construction of dynamic microphone.
Coil that moves on the principle of electromagnetic induction using a microphone that
converts sound waves into electrical signals. When sound waves hit a flexible diaphragm,
diaphragm will retreat to the back and respond in accordance with sound pressure occurs. This
pressure causes the coil moving in a magnetic field from a permanent magnet. The movement of
the coil in this magnetic field causes the voltage based on Faraday's law of induction. Rated
voltage is out of the coil is proportional to the pressure of sound waves which suppress the
diaphragm. In practice, also put an amplifier to increase the level of the incoming signal so more
easily processed. Impedance coil commonly used is about 8-16 ohms. Speaker sound working
principles contrary to the principle of the working microphone. Speaker sound is used to convert
electrical signals into sound waves. The following is the construction of Speaker sound.
Figure 5. 4.Construction of Speaker
On the phone type rotary dial used signaling with pulse dialing. In the signaling pulse
dialing, hook switch is pressed to dial the destination telephone number. If the 9 button is pressed,
then the hook switch will open and shut as much as 9 times as well as sending a signal pulse.
Advantages of this signaling is a system that is simple and inexpensive. However, you will feel the
sidetone (own voice through the speakers when speaking) and echo (the time lag between the
voice signal sent from the microphone to the sound reflection that goes to the speakers, so that it

appears like an echo).

Telephone Touch Tone Dialling/Dual Tone Multi Frequency (DTMF)
In principle, this type of phone is not very different in the circuit of rotary dial phone, with
the only difference in the signaling system used. On a touch tone telephone system, used signaling
with dual tone multi-frequency (DTMF) where the phone number is pressed will be delivered as a
combination of two different frequencies.

Signals are first amplified and separated by groups of high and low frequencies using a
lowpass filter (LP) and highpass filter (HP). Delimiter (L) is used to convert the tone separated into
waves boxes. Tone individually identified using 7 filters BP, where each filter missed a tone and
reject the other tone. Each filter is followed by a detector that will work when the input voltage has
reached a certain level. The detector output will generate a DC signal required by the switching
center to connect you with the dialed party.
Hybird Circuit of 2 Wire-4 Wire
Telephone hybrid circuit is a component on the customer side of a PSTN system that
serves to convert the two-wire system with four-wire systems to form a Bi-directional audio signal
path. In essence, the nature of the phone line are two audio signals move in two opposite

directions, which is the voice of the sender and receiver are moving together. Two signals are then
processed to move separately on the telephone transmission and switching systems that use a 4-
wire system. To change the phone signal on a two wire to four wire hybrid circuit is used to prevent
the mixing of two different sound signals. Nowadays, the modern phone system, use the line card
to the interface between analog channels so that the conversion takes place more efficiently. This
hybrid circuit also serves to amplify the signal and as an echo cancelers.

Pulse Code Modulation and Time Division Multiplexing
Objectives
After following this lab, you are expected to:
Know the principles of conversion of analog to digital signals in PCM.
Recognize the multiplexing techniques based on time (TDM).
Fundamental Theory
Conversion of Analog to Digital Signal
Transmitted signals will decrease the quality. This degradation is caused by the existence
of things, among others:
Attenuation
Noise
Interference
To reduce these impact, the analog signals need to be converted to digital form, because it is
more resistant to noise and attenuation. The conversion of analog signals into digital form through
three stages of the process of sampling, quantization, and coding that all three are part of the
Pulse Code Modulation (PCM).
Sampling
Sampling is the process of measuring the amplitude of a continuous-time signal at discrete
instants. It converts a continuous-time signal to a discrete-time signal.Sampling frequency which is
usually used in the process of digitizing the voice signal is 8 KHz for digital telephony.
Mathematically this can be analogous to sampling as a result of multiplication (combining) signals
are sampled with a sampling signal. Here is a picture of the information signal, the signal wave
sample and sampling results:

Figure 6.1 Information Signal
Figure 6.2 Digital Signal
Figure 6.3 Signal Sampling Result
Quantization
Quantization represents the sampled values of the amplitude by a finite set of levels. It
converts a continuous-amplitude sample to a discrete-amplitude sample. In this quantizing
many comparator level is 2n where n is the number of bits used.
Figure 6.4 Quantizing

Coding
Coding designates each quantized level by a (binary) code. Here is a picture of
quantization and coding process:

Multiplexing
Figure 6.7. Application of Multiplexing in Fiber Optic
Multiplexing is a method of using a channel of communication together. Multiplexing is
intended to save resources from the communications channel. One form of multiplexing is the Time
Division Multiplexing (TDM).TDM is the time interleaving of samples from several sources so that
the information from these sources can be transmitted serially over a single communication
Laboratory Manual Telecomunication Engineering 2015 60
channel.In which one frame is divided into several time slots. Each time slot has the same period
and each frame has the same number of time slots, so each time slot on each channel talks
repeatedly at fixed intervals, so that TDM is a synchronous system. Time slots can be used by one
user to a channel talks. Other types of multiplexing are Frequency Division Multiplexing (FDM) and
Code Division Multiplexing (CDM).
.

Figure 6.9. Concept of frame and time slot in GSM-TDMA Communication System.
Multiplexing can be categorized into:
1. Frequency Division Multiplexing (FDM). This technique is the most popular and commonly
used on radio and TV transmissions. The frequency spectrum is divided into multiple
channels based on its frequencies.

Digital Modulation
Modulation is the process of laying the information to the carrier frequency signal having a
frequency higher. In general, the resources in the form of analog signals. To streamline the
transmission of the digital modulation must be in the form of digital information. The digital
modulation is actually a process of varying the characteristics and properties of the carrier wave
(carrier) such that the form of the result has the characteristics of bit (0 or 1) it contains.
Things become a big problem in the transmission of information when the transmitter and
receiver are separated by a free space, in which a signal transmitter signals sent will experience
distortion and noise, causing errors in the information to be received. The digital communication
system is used to minimize the effects that occur in the channel, maximizing transfer rate, and the
accuracy of the information transmission.
The advantages of digital communication systems:
1. The occurrence of interference is very small;
2. Resistant to noise;
3. Can correcting the error;
4. Easy to manipulate;
5. Easy for processing and multiplexing.
The disadvantages of digital communication systems:
1. Requires a system of higher demand;
2. Requires additional fee for converting analog to digital systems.

a. Information Source
Information source can be a continuous signal or discrete signals. In digital communication,
analog signals should be converted into the digital one using Analog to Digital Converter (ADC).
b. Source Encoder and Decoder
Source coding is used to code information source in order to make information more suitable
for being transmitted. Source encoder will reduce the number of bit needed for transmitting
some kinds of information. This technique will reduce the bandwidth needed. Source decoder
is used to decode information after signals received in the receiver.
c. Line Coding and Decoding
Line coding applies digital data format without using modulation technique. The requirements
of line coding are spectrum at low frequency, transmission bandwidth required, timing content,
error monitoring, and code efficiency. The examples of line coding are Non Return to Zero
(NRZ), Return to Zero (RZ), Manchester, Alternate Mark Inversion (AMI), HDB3, etc.
d. Encryption and Scrambling
Two main reasons for using encryption and scrambling are confidentiality and authentication.
e. Channel Coding dan Decoding
In high speed data transmission, the „1‟ and „0‟ are usually of very short duration. Channel
coding and decoding is applied for reducing bit errors that are caused by the noisy channel.
Laboratory Manual Telecomunication Engineering 2015 68
Channel coding process data stream to make it compatible with channel characteristic. The
technique is applied by adding some parity bits to the digital word.
f. Digital Carrier Modulator and Demodulator
The main purpose of digital modulator is to map binary information into signal waveforms in
order to make the binary information capable to be transmitted over the channel.
g. Communication Channel
Communication channel is any medium that is used to transmit signals from transmitter to
receiver. In practice, the channel is noisy and will disturb signals.
Bandpass Transmission System
Bandpass transmission system is a transmission system that has undergone modulation,
ie the information signal (discrete) modulates the carrier signal (continuous). Before modulated
using a digital modulation technique, the signal must be in the form of digital data information.
Therefore, the information signal is still analog form must first be converted using an ADC (Analog
to Digital Converter). There are a wide variety of digital modulation techniques include ASK
(Amplitude shifted Keying), FSK (Frequency shifted Keying) and PSK (Phase shifted Keying). Also
known modulation techniques QAM (Quadrature Amplitude Modulation) which is a combination of
ASK and PSK.
Amplitude Shift Keying (ASK)
Amplitude Shift Keying (ASK) is digital modulation technique represented by amplitude level of the
information. In ASK, binary information, such as 0 and 1, will be stated as a different amplitude
level. In a band pass ASK, the signal is represented by:
(1)
Figure 7.2. ASK modulated Digital signal
Laboratory Manual Telecomunication Engineering 2015 69
There are two kinds of demodulation and detection schemes for ASK: no coherent (asynchronous)
and coherent (synchronous).
Frequency Shift Keying (FSK)
In frequency shift keying, the frequency of the carrier varies with the baseband information. For
example, binary 0 will have carrier frequency f1 while binary 1 will have carrier frequency f2. The
modulated signal for binary FSK is formulated by :
(2)
Figure 7.3. FSK modulated Digital signal
FSK signals can be demodulated and detected by using both non coherent technique and coherent

Digital Line Coding
Objectives
Understand the baseband transmission
Understand NRZ and AMI Encoding and Decoding
Fundamental Theory
An Overview of Baseband Transmission
Baseband refers to the signal that has a very narrow frequency range. Almost all sources of
information generate baseband signals. Baseband signals are transmitted without modulation, that
is, without any shift in the range of frequencies of the signal.
Figure 8.1. Baseband Transmission System
Line Coding
A line code defines the relationship between the binary signal at the source and the
corresponding sequence of symbol elements transmitted over the channel. A line code provides
the transmitted symbol sequence with the necessary properties to ensure reliable baseband
transmission and error free detection at receiver. To achive this, the following characteristic have to
be considered:
Spectrum at low frequency
Transmission bandwidth required
Timing content
Laboratory Manual Telecomunication Engineering 2015 74
Error monitoring
Code Efficiency
Type of Line Coding
a. Non-Return-to-Zero (NRZ) signal are the easiest formats that can be regenerated. These
signal don‟t return to zero with the clock. Using NRZ, logic 1 bit is sent as a high value and
logic 0 bit is sent as low value. NRZ can be divided into some type:
Non-Return to zero – LEVEL (NRZ-L)
Non-Return to zero – MARK (NRZ-M)
Non-Return to zero – SPACE (NRZ-S)
Figure 8.2. Non-Return to Zero
b. Return-to-Zero
With RZ codes, the signal level representing bit value „1‟ lasts for the first half of the bit
interval T, after which the signal returns to reference „0‟ level for the remaining half of the
interval. A „0‟ indicate by no change, with the signal remaining at the reference level „0‟.
c. Biphase Level Coding (Biphase-L)
Popularly known as Manchester Coding. With the Biphase-L, „one‟ is represented by half
wide pulse, positioned during the first half of the bit interval and a „zero‟ is represented by a
half bit wide pulse positioned during the second half of the bit interval.
d. Alternate Mark Inversion (AMI)
In AMI, binary data are coded with three amplitude levels, 0 and ±A. Binary „0‟s (space) are
always coded as zero level, while binary „1‟s (marks) are alternately coded as +A and -A.
The transmitted symbol rate is the same as the binary data rate, and there is no dc
component in symbol stream.
Laboratory Manual Telecomunication Engineering 2015 75
Figure 8.3. Various Line Decoding Scheme
Line decoding
The decoding scheme of line coding can be listed as follows:
The waveform A is the result of line coding techniques.
After passing down the cable, the original waveform A is attenuated and the clear
transition have become indistinct, as shown in waveform B.
To counteract the distortion of waveform B, the system includes an equalizer, which
„sharpens‟ the received signal (waveform C).
Passing this equalized waveform through a threshold detector (waveform D) has the result
of regenerating a binary signal very similar to transmitted one.
Retiming is needed to prevent irregularities (jitter) in waveform D. A regenerated clock
(waveform E) are processed with the output D in the retiming circuit to produce a
regenerate signal (waveform F) which can be an almost perfect replica of the transmitted
signal.

Finite Impulse Response Filter
Objectives
Understand the DSP and its applications
Understand the concept of FIR filters and design FIR filter
Fundamental Theory
Overview of DSK
DSK TMS320C6713 is one of the types C6000 that can work on a fixed-point or floating-
point. However, DSP is still a starter kit, which is a platform that can simulate DSP C6713. This
type is intended for educational purposes, research, and evaluation. However, the results of the
application that we created in the DSK type is very likely to apply to the actual C6713 DSP.
Texas Instruments publish a series of DSP board for applications DSP processors with low
cost, one of which is a series of DSK TMS320C6713 DSP board. Basically, this board was
developed as a low-cost platform that has high performance to facilitate learning for all about digital
signal processing. On the DSP board is already integrated components that related with signal
processing using DSP (Digital Signal Processor). Components of board is hardware, but can be
programmed using Code Composer Studio software. In Figure 1 and Figure 2 respectively display
DSK TMS320C6713 and the block diagram of DSK TMS320C6713.
Figure 9.1. Display DSK TMS320C6713
Laboratory Manual Telecomunication Engineering 2015 79
Figure 9.2. Block diagram of DSK TMS320C6713
The main components as well as supporters of the DSK TMS320C6713 include:
Processor TMS320C6713
It is a processor with a clock speed of 225 Hz which support the operation of fixed-point
and floating-point. Operating speed can reach 1350 million floating-point operations per
second (Mflops) and 1800 million instructions per second (MIPS). In addition, the
processor is able to perform 450 million multiply-accumulate operations per second.
CPLD (Complex Programmable Logic Device)
CPLD contains registers that serves to regulate the features that exist on the board. On
the DSK C6713, there are 4 types of CPLD registers, namely:
1. USER_REG, Register to set switches and LEDs as desired by users.
2. DC_REG, Register to monitor and control the daughter card.
3. VERSION Register for indications that related to the version of the board and CPLD.
4. MISC Register to manage other functions on the board.
Flash memory
DSK uses flash memory to booting. In the flash contains a small program that called POST
(Power On Self Test). This program is run when DSK was first on. POST program will
examine the basic board functions as a USB connection, audio codec, LEDs, switches,
and so on.
SDRAM
The main memory that serves as a repository of instructions and data.
AIC23 Codec
Serves as ADC and DAC for the incoming signal to the board.
Daughter card interface
Additional connectors are useful for developing applications on board. There are three
connectors, namely memory expansion, peripheral expansion, and Host Port Interface.
LEDs and Switches
Laboratory Manual Telecomunication Engineering 2015 80
LEDs and switches is a feature that can help in building applications because can be
programmed as desired by the user.
JTAG (Joint Test Action Group)
Is a connector that can transfer data at very high speeds. This will be useful in real-time
applications.
DSK can be used for many things, ranging from communication simulation, control system
to image and sound processing. DSP commonly used in communications applications (mobile).
Embedded DSP can be found in cellular phones, fax / modems, disk drives, radios, printers,
hearing aids (hearing aids), MP3 player, high-definition television (HDTV), digital cameras and
others. The use of DSP in many tools can reduce the price of production, because the DSP can be
programmed according to the needs, the softaware is cheap and sufficient hardware support.
Digital Filters
The digital filter is a mathematical procedure or algorithm that processes the digital input
signal and generates a digital output signal that has certain properties in accordance with the
purpose of the filter. This filter can use in many applications. Most of the signal processing
applications using filters. In PSD, the filter that designed is digital filter. Digital filter can be divided
into two IIR Digital Filters (infinite impulse response) and FIR (finite impulse response). This
division is based on impulse response filter. FIR has a finite impulse response length, whereas IIR
infinite. FIR not has pole, then the stability can be guaranteed, while IIR has poles so more
unstable. In the high-order digital filter, error that happen because rounding the filter coefficients
can cause instability.
Some of the advantages of digital filter than analog filter is:
1. The digital filter has a linear phase response.
2. Because it was built based on a mathematical procedure using the software, the digital
filter performance is not easily affected by environmental conditions.
3. Response digital filter easily adapted to the needs by changing the mathematical
procedure only.
4. The digital filter can process many different signals with only one making it more efficient
algorithms.
5. The digital filter can be used for very low frequencies.
The digital filter weakness compared to the analog filter is:
1. Speed filter performance is highly dependent on the operating system and the processor
used and the level of difficulty of the algorithm.
Laboratory Manual Telecomunication Engineering 2015 81
2. In the application on the analog signal, before being put to the digital filter, the information
signal must be converted first into a digital signal that uses additional devices such as ADC
that will add to costs and affect the performance of the filter.
3. The design of the digital filter requires special skills in programming and others.
In general:
a. Finite Impulse Response (FIR)
Formula FIR can be seen as follows:
)()()(1
0
knxkhnyN
k
(1)
b. Infinite Impulse Response (IIR)
IIR formula can be seen as follows:
0
)()()(k
knxkhny (2)
The basic operation that used in signal processing just a simple multiplication and
summation. However, these two operations are performed is very numerous, so to implement in
the application is required a very fast processor to perform mathematical calculations. So,
designed a microprocessor that works specifically for digital signal processing called the Digital
Signal Processor (DSP).
Stage filter design can be seen in the following flow chart
Filter Specifications
Figure 9.3. Filter Specification.
Passband is an area where the desired frequency is passed, while the stopband is an area
where the undesired frequencies is attenuated (attenuated power to almost nothing magnitude). In
Laboratory Manual Telecomunication Engineering 2015 82
both these areas there is usually a ripple with the ripple deviation δp and δs deviation passband
ripple in the stopband. Transition region is an area where occurs a change between passband and
stopband. In the design of the filter is always used normalized frequency, thus facilitating the
design.
Calculation of filter coefficients can be done by several methods, namely windowing,
optimal method, and the method of counting frequency. In this module only discussed windowing
method for calculating the filter coefficients.
On the principle of windowing method, it is stated that if a function has limited functionality
(non-periodic) in the frequency domain, then the function will not be limited (periodic) in the time
domain and vice versa. Because the filter is limited to a certain frequency, then in the time domain
filter function is infinite. This is certainly contrary to our desire to design a filter with a length of h [n]
is limited. To limit the length of the filter in the time domain with a boundary called a window.
Nevertheless, the effect is to restrict the filter in the time domain, frequency domain then the length
of the filter becomes infinite.
FIR Filter
FIR filter serves to operate a real-time digital filter on a DSP. Named "finite" or limited
because there is no feedback on the type of filter. There is no feedback because the value of a
signal sample is limited to the value of (N-1) so that the number of samples depends on the
number of coefficients N. On the TMS320C6713 DSK, the use of FIR filters include the use of the
ADC and DAC are integrated with the DSP board. ADC serves to capture and transform the signal
into discrete form, whereas the DAC function transform back into an analog signal.
In general, an FIR is defined by the impulse responses, h(n), where h(n) is filter
coefficients as found in Figure 3. The value and number of filter coefficients are determined by the
desired filter specifications. Manually a value and the number of filter coefficients can be searched
using a variety of methods that exploit the concept of discrete Fourier transform and windowing
techniques.

Radio Lines Simulation Using Radiomobile Software
Objectives
To understand concept of wireless communication.
Learning to simulate one or more radio lines with modified parameters using Radio
Mobile software.
Fundamental Theory
Radio waves which propagating on the air will experience several different
physical phenomena, such as reflection, transmission, diffraction and scattering.
Propagation environment is the geographical environment in which radio waves
propagate from transmitter to receiver. Propagation environments strongly influenced by
the physical parameters such as pressure, temperature, humidity, refractive index,
topography, vegetation distribution, roads, and buildings. Radio wave propagation can be
determined by modeling the different physical mechanisms, such as damping vacuum,
atmospheric attenuation, attenuation due to vegetation, and others.
The simplest radio propagation is line-of-sight. Microwave signals can be blocked
by buildings or valleys. The waves must avoid any obstacles or tilt on the earth to make
transmission. If the position between the building is blocked, it is necessary to put an
antenna tower higher, in order to remain in a position to "see each other" (line of sight). In
general, the propagation is called line-of-sight if there are no waves diffraction effects, this
means that there is no obstacles in first Fresnel ellipsoid. In Figure 7.1 below shown a
simple model of radio propagation path analysis line-of-sight.

Radio Mobile Software
The first step to create a wireless system is to make a design and simulation of the
system. One of the tools to design and simulate a wireless system is the software Radio
Mobile. Radio Mobile is a software developed byRoger Coude for amateur radio users.
Radio Mobile using digital terrainelevation model for the calculation of the coverage
and signal strengthreceived at various points along the radio path. Radio Mobile
automaticallybuilds a profile between two points on a digital map showing the
coverage area and first Fresnel zone. During the simulation, the software will check the
line-of-sight and calculate the path loss. By using Radio Mobile, it is possible to make a
network of several different topologies, including network master/slave, point-to-multipoint.
This software can be used to calculate the coverage area of a base station in a point-to-
multipoint, working for a system that has frequency of 100 kHz to 200 GHz.
