Digital-to-Analog Conversion
• Digital-to-analog conversion is the process of changing
one of the characteristics of an analog signal based on the
information in digital data

Types of Digital-to-Analog
Modulation

Examples 5.2
An analog signal has a bit rate of 8000 bps and a baud
rate of 1000 baud. How many data elements are carried
by each signal element? How many signal elements do
we need?
Solution
S = 1000, N = 8000, and r and L are unknown. We find
first the value of r and then the value of L.

BFSK: Example
• We have an available bandwidth of 100 kHz which spans
from 200 to 300 kHz. What should be the carrier frequency
and the bit rate if we modulated our data by using FSK
with d = 1?
Multilevel FSK
• The frequencies need to be 2Δf apart. Min. value 2Δf needs to be S.
• B = (1 + d) x S + (L – 1) 2Δf B = L x S with d = 0
• Example: We need to send data 3 bits at a time at a bit rate of 3 Mbps.
The carrier frequency is 10 MHz. Calculate the number of levels
(different frequencies), the baud rate, and the bandwidth
Quadrature PSK

• Define the amplitude and phase of a signal element

QAM
Quadrature amplitude modulation
Combination of ASK and PSK
Bandwidth : the same as that required for ASK and PSK

Analog-to-Analog Modulation
• Analog-to-analog conversion is the representation of analog
information by an analog signal
• Modulation is needed if the medium is bandpass in nature or if only a
bandpass channel is available to us
3-20
Amplitude Modulation
• The total bandwidth required for AM can be determined
from the bandwidth of the audio signal: BAM = 2B.
3-21
AM Band Allocation
• Bandwidth of an audio signal (speech and music) is
usually 5 kHz
3-22
Frequency Modulation
• The total bandwidth required for FM can be determined
from the bandwidth of the audio signal: BFM = 2(1 + β)B.
3-23
FM Band Allocation
• Bandwidth of an audio signal (speech and music)
broadcast in stereo is almost 15 kH
• FCC allows 200 kHz for each station (β =4 with some
extra guard band)
• Separated by at least 200 kHz
3-24
Phase Modulation
• The total bandwidth required for PM can be determined
from the bandwidth and maximum amplitude of the
modulating signal: BPM = 2(1 + β)B.
