Synopsis
This course introduces students
Communication Systems
This course will give you a comprehensive overview of a wide range of
communications systems and networks, including voice, data, video, and
multimedia.
Class Content and Objective:
The content of "Communication Systems" represents the basic knowledge
necessary for transmitting and receiving information using today's
communication technologies.
The techniques that will be studied involve coding information onto a carrier
(modulation) which is then transmitted.
The received signal is then decoded (demodulated) yielding the original
information. Emphasis will be given to modulation of both analog and digital
signals.
The modulation techniques covered will include Amplitude Modulation (AM),
Frequency Modulation (FM), Time-Division Modulation (TDM) and
Frequency Shift Keying (FSK).

Objectives of Course
Networks
Including (Wired and Wireless). Usually a physical medium, such as a copper
wire or optical fiber. A wireless medium, such as radio or infrared light, also
may be employed.
Communication: Is the transmission of Information
Information: may be Data in the form of (Video, Audio, Image or Text)
Data: Can analog or Digital
Electronic Communication: The communication system that involves the field
of electronics to accomplish the task.
The Communication Systems: The function of communication system is to
transfer information from one point to another via some communication link.
Telecommunications: is the transfer of information (communications) from a
transmitter or sender to a receiver across a distance (Tele).
Tele (Far) + Communications. Communication at a distance.
The information can be voice, data, video, image, or some combination of
these in other words, multimedia.

Modulation
Process of putting information onto a high frequency
carrier for transmission
Intelligence Signal
The low frequency information that modulates the carrier
Intelligence
Low-frequency information modulated onto a high
frequency carrier in a transmitter
Demodulation
Process of removing intelligence from the high frequency
carrier in a receiver

SMART

At this point you may be thinking, why bother to go through

this modulation/demodulation process?
Why not just transmit the information directly? The problem is
that the frequency of the human voice ranges from about 20 to
3000 Hz. If everyone transmitted those frequencies directly as
radio waves, interference would cause them all to be
ineffective.
Another limitation of equal importance is the virtual
impossibility of transmitting such low frequencies since the
required antennas for efficient propagation would be miles in
length.
The solution is modulation, which allows propagation of the
low-frequency intelligence with a high-frequency carrier.
