Demodulation

PSK - DPSK Modulation / Demodulation

Assigning the oscillograms at the test points DATA and DIBIT-CLOCK,
to a set bit pattern

Note:
Before commencing the exercise, check the alignment of the PSK modulator,
SO4201-9J, in accordance with the operating instructions!

On the PSK / QPSK modulator (SO4201-9J), connect the "Sync" output to the
analog test input (channel B) of the UniTr@in-Interface. On channel A measure the
signal at the "Data" output. Trigger on B. For more stable triggering, set the trigger
point to 50% of the amplitude of the squarewave signal.

Set the following bit pattern (Byte) on the DIP switches:

LSB MSB
Bit 1 Bit 2 Bit 3 Bit 4 Bit 5 Bit 6 Bit 7 Bit 8

0 1 0 0 1 1 0 1

Set the switch for the modulation type to "2PSK", the jumper for the transfer rate to
"1200" and by pressing the "SET" button, read in the bit pattern.

Caution:
The "Set" button must be pressed again, after each new change of the settings has
been completed!

On an oscilloscope, display the voltages at the test points DATA and BITCLOCK.
What is the sequence of the bits during transfer? How many bits are transferred for
each bit-clock ?

Exercise 2
Assigning the output voltage to various bit patterns

On channel A, measure the signal at the "(Q)PSK" output and determine the
assignment of the binary value of the bit pattern (0 and 1) to the phase of the 2PSK
signal. For this, compare the 2PSK-modulated signal to the carrier signal at the
"Car." output.

Exercise 3
Effect of various rates of transfer

Determine the baud rate vS, data transfer rate vD and the number of bytes
transferred per second (cps) for the "600" and "1200" settings of jumper D.
Compare the appearance of the 2PSK signal at either setting of the switch.

Note:
For determining the transfer rate, use the time marker on the oscilloscope. In the
lower part of the operating bar for the oscilloscope, the button will be seen for
cursor functions. Set this for channel A. Also, two amplitude markers are available
for measuring voltages and two time markers for measuring time or frequency. The
marker can be moved with the mouse to the position required. The values detected
are shown at the top right .

Exercise 4
Demodulation of the 2PSK signal

Without changing the setting of the modulation, connect the "(Q)PSK" and "Car."
outputs of the QPSK / PSK modulator to the corresponding inputs on the QPSK /
PSK demodulator (SO4201-9K).
For synchronising, the carrier signal (CAR) must be transferred with the output
signal.

Set the demodulator according to the conditions for receiving modulated data:
- Transfer rate switch: Position "1200",
- Type of modulation switch: Position "2PSK"

On the PSK / QPSK modulator (SO4201-9J), connect the "Sync" output to the
analog test input, channel B, of the UniTr@in-Interface. On channel A, measure the
signal at the "Data" output of the QPSK / PSK demodulator (SO4201-9K). Trigger
on B. For more stable triggering, set the trigger point to 50% of the amplitude of the
squarewave signal.

Result:

X = 1 ms/DIV
