Introduction - Digital data, more specifically, the binary data changes the properties of the carrier signal. 1 - Amplitude 2 - Frequency 3 - Phase 3
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 (0 or 1). - Analog-to-analog: low pass analog signal to band pass analog signal. 4
Modulation - Definition: transforming the information to be transmitted into a format suitable for the used medium. - The signals are transmitted as a sine wave which has three parameters: amplitude, frequency and phase shift. - These parameters can be varied in accordance with data or another modulating signal. - Two types of modulation: 1 - Digital modulation: digital data (0, 1) is translated into an analog signal (baseband signal). 2 - Analog modulation: the center frequency of the baseband signal generated by digital modulation is shifted up to the radio carrier.
Why we Need Digital Modulation? - Digital modulation is required if digital data has to be transmitted over a medium that only allows analog transmission (modems in wired networks). - Digital signals, i. e. 0/1, can be sent over wires using voltages. - Wireless must use analogue sine waves. - This translation is performed by digital modulation: - Digital data is translated into an analog signal (baseband). - Shift Keying is the translation process. - Amplitude, Freq. , Phase Shift Keying (ASK/FSK/PSK).

Types of Digital to Analog Conversion - A sine wave is represented by three characteristics: Amplitude, Frequency and Phase. - We can change one of these digital data. characteristics to represent 8
Aspects of Digital to Analog Conversion - Carrier Signal or carrier frequency: - A high frequency signal that acts as a basis for the information signal. - Digital information then modulates the carrier signal by modifying one or more of its characteristics (Amplitude, frequency or phase). - This kind of modification is called modulation or shift keying, and the information signal is called modulated signal. 9
Carrier Signal ASK modulated signal
Bit Rate and Baud Rate - Bit rate: is the number of bits per second (bps ). - Baud rate (Nbaud): is the number of signal units per second (baud/s). A signal unit (one baud) is composed of 1 or more bits
Amplitude Shift Keying (ASK) - In ASK the amplitude of the carrier signal is varied to represent binary 1 or 0. - Both frequency and phase remain constant while the amplitude changes. - The peak amplitude of the signal during each bit duration is constant, and its value depends on the bit (0 or 1). ASK-Modulated signal
Digital Modulation; Amplitude Shift Keying (ASK) - Amplitude Shift Keying (ASK): - 0 and 1 represented by different amplitudes. i. e. a basic sine wave. - Problem: susceptible to interference. - Constant amplitude is hard to achieve. - ASK is used for optical transmissions such as infra-red and fiber (simple + high performance). - In optical light on = 1 light off = 0
Binary ASK (BASK) or On Off Keying (OOK) - Although we can have several levels (kinds) of signal elements, each with a different amplitude, ASK is normally implemented using only two levels. This is referred to as binary amplitude shift keying. - We can think of a carrier signal as an ON or OFF switch. In the modulated signal, logic 0 is represented by the absence of a carrier, thus giving OFF/ON keying operation and hence the name given OOK.
On Off Keying (OOK)
ASK Generation
Demodulator or Detector - The demodulator determines the amplitude of the received signal and maps it back to the symbol it represents, thus recovering the original data.
Pros and Cons - Pros: ASK transmitter and receiver are simple to design. ASK needs less bandwidth than FSK. - Cons: ASK transmission can be easily corrupted by noise. - Application: Early telephone modem (AFSK). ASK is used to transmit digital data over optical fiber.
