• An eye diagram is
constructed by plotting
overlapping k-symbol
segments of a baseband
signal.

displayed on an oscillo-
scope by triggering the
time sweep of the
oscilloscope.
See Reference [Ziemer &
Tranter] (Sec. 4.6) for
more details about eye

A necessary and sufficient condition for pulse v(t) to satisfy

0, n  0 
is that its Fourier transform V(f) satisfies  V ( f   ) .

Suppose that the bandwidth of unit pulse v(t) is W, which is also the required
channel bandwidth. To pass the digital modulated signal with symbol rate 1/
through the channel:
• If 1/-W>W, there is no way to satisfy the Nyquist pulse-shaping criterion

Nyquist Pulse-Shaping Criterion for Zero ISI
According to Nyquist pulse-shaping criterion for zero ISI:
 If the symbol rate 1/>2W, there is no way that we can design a system
with zero ISI.
 , | f | W
 If the symbol rate 1/=2W, we must have V ( f )  
0, otherwise
• The maximum symbol rate for zero ISI is 2W.
• In the binary case, the highest bandwidth efficiency for zero-ISI is

2, which is achieved by the binary sinc-shaped-pulse modulated signal.
 If the symbol rate 1/<2W, we have numerous choices. One of them is

called Raised-Cosine Pulse.

• A larger M also leads to a smaller minimal amplitude difference – higher error

• Inter-Symbol Interference (ISI)
