QN:
Is it possible to transmit the signal having large
bandwidth compared to that of the channel? Explain
how this can be handled at the transmitter and receiving
side.
Yes, it is possible to transmit the signal having bandwidth
larger than that of the channel, the problem is, the higher
frequencies of the signal will be clipped, allowing the
frequencies that can be accommodated by the channel to
pass to the receiving end. In order to handle this clipping
effect proper techniques at the receiving side and at the
transmitting side must be incorporated.
AT THE TRANSMITTER
 the proper pre-coding scheme should be
chosen in order to ensure the bandwidth of
the signal is reduced to the value that can
be accommodated by the channel.
 The modulation scheme that utilizes a small
bandwidth should be taken into account, so
as to reduce the effect of clipping due to the
signal transmitted having a larger
bandwidth compared to that of the channel.
 The number of parity bits, which
increases the bandwidth of the signal
should be kept to minimum.
AT THE RECEIVER

 Regeneration of the signal at the receiving side

should be done in order to account for the effect of
the clipping due to small channel bandwidth. This
process is done in order to reconstruct the signal into
its original form after the parts of the signal having
the higher frequencies being clipped.
