Background And Preview
0.1 The Communication Process (Statistical)
- Communication anywhere , anytime , involving
transmission of information from one point to
other places, (Broadcasting , Point-to-point)
generation and description of signals, encoding,
transmission, decoding and recovering.
9
0.2 Primary Communication Resources
- transmitted power (power limited)
- channel bandwidth (bandwidth limited)
Due to noise , the ratio of the average signal
power to the average noise power (SNR) is an
important system parameter (in terms dB) , but
not the only one (ISI, jitter) (error free second)

Internet
A specific worldwide internet.
A machine is on the Internet if it runs the TCP/IP
protocol stack , has an IP address, and has the
ability to send and receive IP packets to all the
other machines on the Internet.
The network technology is decoupled from
the applications.
· The applications are carried out independently
of the technology
· The network technology is capable of evolving
without affecting the applications

Broadband Networks
Driving forces : demand for new services(video ,
multimedia ) and enabling technologies (optical
fibers, packet digital switches )

Digital Hierarchy )

0.8 Analog and Digital Types of Communications
a. Guidelines of designing the transmitter
and the receiver
- Encode/modulate the signal,transmit it over the
channel and produce an ’’estimate” of the
original signal at the receiver output that
satisfies the requirements
- Do all of this at an affordable cost
b. The design of an analog communication system
is conceptually simple but difficult to implement
24
c. The digital communication system
- Source encoder-decoder
(remove redundant information)
- Channel encoder-decoder
(controlled redundancy, FEC, Error detection)
- Modulator-demodulator
25
0.9 Shannon’s Information Capacity Theorem
C = B · log2(1+SNR) b/s
(1)
C : Channel capacity
B : Channel bandwidth
SNR : Signal-to-noise ratio
26
Efficiency of a digital communication system
= R/C
R: actual signaling rate
Equation 1 provides a basis for the trade-off
between B and SNR and an idealized framework
for comparing modulation schemes

For PSK,
s(t)= -Ac cos(2fct+m(t) )

where 0  t  T , the carrier frequency fc=
k=integer, Ac is the amplitude.

Assume the channel is distortionless but noising , the received
signal x(t) is
x(t)=s(t)+w(t)
where w(t) is the additive channel noise (e.g., AWGN).
The output of the correlator is
