  • 1. Aspects of Digital-to-Analog Conversion Bit rate is the number of bits per second. Baud rate is the number of signalelements per second. In the analog transmission of digital data,the baud rate is less than or equal to the bit rate.

2. Carrier signal A carrier signal is a transmitted electromagnetic pulse or waveat a steady base frequency of alternation on whichinformation can be imposed by increasing signal strength,varying the base Frequency, phase or Amplitude.Thismodification is called modulation. 3. Amplitude Shift Keying (ASK) ASK is a form of modulation that represents digital data asvariations in the amplitude of a carrier wave. The amplitudeof the carrier (modulating signal), keeping frequency andphase constant. 4. Amplitude Shift Keying (ASK) 5. Amplitude Shift Keying (ASK)Advantages Very simple modulation and demodulationDisadvantages High sensitivity to noise Low bandwidth efficiency 6. Frequency shift keying (FSK) FSK is a method of transmitting digital signals. The two binarystates, logic 0 (low) and 1 (high), are represented by an analogwaveform. Logic 0 is represented by a wave at a specificfrequency, and logic 1 is represented by a wave at a differentfrequency.Peak amplitude and phase are constant 7. Frequency shift keying (FSK) 8. Phase shift keying Phase-shift keying (PSK): the phase of a transmitted signal isvaried to convey information. There are several methods thatcan be used to accomplish PSK. 9. Phase shift keying The simplest PSK technique is called 2-PSK or BPSK. It usestwo opposite signal phases (0 and 180). The state of each bitis determined according to the state of the preceding bit. If thephase of the wave does not change, then the signal state staysthe same (0 or 1). If the phase of the wave reverses that ischanges by 180 then the signal state is flipped. 10. Phase shift keying PSK minimum bandwidth = ASK minimum bandwidth.Advantages of PSK: Not susceptible to noise. No bandwidth limitationDisadvantages: Distinguishing small difference in phase depending on the equipment used. 11. QPSK 12. QPSKAdvantages Very good noise immunity Baud rate is half the bit rate therefore moreeffective utilization of bandwidth Low error probabilityDisadvantages The generation and detection of Qpsk iscomplex
