EC6402 COMMUNICATION THEORY syllabus-subject-notes-pevious-year-questions-papers-bank

OBJECTIVES:
 To introduce the concepts of various analog modulations and their spectral characteristics.
 To understand the properties of random process.
 To know the effect of noise on communication systems.

UNIT I AMPLITUDE MODULATION 9 Generation and detection of AM wave-spectra-DSBSC, Hilbert Transform, Pre-envelope & complex envelope - SSB and VSB –comparison -Superheterodyne Receiver.

UNIT II ANGLE MODULATION 9 Phase and frequency modulation-Narrow Band and Wind band FM - Spectrum - FM modulation and demodulation – FM Discriminator- PLL as FM Demodulator - Transmission bandwidth.

UNIT III RANDOM PROCESS 9 Random variables, Central limit Theorem, Random Process, Stationary Processes, Mean, Correlation & Covariance functions, Power Spectral Density, Ergodic Processes, Gaussian Process, Transmission of a Random Process Through a LTI filter.

UNIT IV NOISE CHARACTERIZATION 9 Noise sources and types – Noise figure and noise temperature – Noise in cascaded systems. Narrow band noise – PSD of in-phase and quadrature noise –Noise performance in AM systems – Noise performance in FM systems – Pre-emphasis and de-emphasis – Capture effect, threshold effect.

UNIT V INFORMATION THEORY 9 Entropy - Discrete Memoryless channels - Channel Capacity -Hartley - Shannon law - Source coding theorem - Huffman & Shannon - Fano codes

OUTCOMES: At the end of the course, the students would
 Design AM communication systems.
 Design Angle modulated communication systems
 Apply the concepts of Random Process to the design of Communication systems
 Analyze the noise performance of AM and FM systems
