Pulse Time Modulation:


Pulse Width Modulation & Pulse Position Modulation

Pulse Time Modulation (PTM) is a class of signaling technique that encodes


the sample values of an analog signal onto the time axis of a digital signal.

The two main types of pulse time modulation are:

1. Pulse Width Modulation (PWM)


2. Pulse Position Modulation (PPM)

In PWM the sample values of the analog waveform are used to determine
the width of the pulse signal. Either instantaneous or natural sampling can be
used.

In PPM the analog sample values determine the position of a narrow pulse
relative to the clocking time. It is possible to obtain PPM from PWM by
using a mono-stable multivibrator circuit.

The PWM or PPM signals may be converted back to the corresponding


analog signal by a receiving system as shown in Fig. 3-46.

For PWM detection the PWM signal is used to start and stop the integration
of the integrator. After reset integrator starts to integrate during the duration
of the pulse and will continue to do so till the pulse goes low.

If integrator has a DC voltage connected as input , the output will be a


truncated ramp. After the PWM signal goes low, the amplitude of the
truncated ramp will be equal to the corresponding PAM sample value. Then
it goes to zero with reset of the integrator.
