After analog to digital signal conversion is completed, the signal is modulated such that the zeros and ones are converted into on-off discrete energy pulses. This is known as on-off keying or amplitude shift keying (ASK). This method of on and off pulsing is not used much for today’s radio transmission since multipath fading distorts the amplitude of the carrier. However, fiber optic and infrared transmission use on-off pulsing of the light signal for transmitting digital information.

(For more information on multipath fading, refer to the GWEC module RT-RF Antennasand RT-RF Propagation.)

Frequency Shift KeyingSource: Global Wireless Education Consortium

Another way to modulate digital signals is to have two distinct frequencies that are offset from the carrier frequency. These two frequencies represent the zeros and ones from the original digital signal. This is called frequency shift keying (FSK). Frequency modulation and phase modulation are closely related. A static frequency shift of +1 Hz means that the phase is constantly advancing at the rate of 360 degrees per second (2 π rad/sec), relative to the phase of the unshifted signal.

If you have two distinct frequencies, there are two states, 0 (on) and 1 (off). If you have four distinct frequencies, there are four states: 00, 01, 10, and 11. With eight frequencies there are eight states: 000, 001, 010, 100, 011, 101, 110, and 111.

When a signal element changes states it is called a baud. With two states, there is one bit to one baud. With four states, there are two bits to one baud, and with eight states there are three bits to one baud.

FSK is used in low transmission rates such as paging and for the control channel in some cellular systems. Some of the cordless systems include DECT (Digital Enhanced Cordless Telephone) and CT2 (Cordless Telephone 2).

Phase Shift Keying

Another way to modulate digital signals is phase shift keying (PSK) whereby the carrier frequency is modulated by a phase angle. The simplest example is binary PSK. Each 180-degree shift in phase represents a change from 0 to 1. Phase relationships can also be drawn without using sine waves by using a phase plan diagram. In a phase plan diagram, each vector represents a sine wave. In the example shown above, waves are 180 degrees out of phase with each other. Most digital radio signals use some form of PSK.

Modulation can be explained in terms of degrees of freedom. Amplitude, frequency, and phase are the variables. Simple systems generally hold two of the three variables constant, varying only one of them. This makes decoding quite easy, but subject to error. More complex systems vary combinations of the variables, creating more reliable systems. Complex systems may also have more than the two-state binary levels to support higher data rates.

Efficiency of the spectrum is defined by the number of bits that can be transmitted in a period of time (usually one second) with a defined bandwidth or channel. Since the width of the channel is in kilohertz (kHz) or megahertz (MHz), spectrum efficiency is the number of bits per second per hertz. In other words, it is how many bits per hertz that can be “stuffed” into the radio channel.

With ASK, FSK, or two-state PSK, each change of state represents one bit. Under ideal conditions, one bit per second per hertz of channel can be transmitted. With a 30 kHz channel, like cellular, 30,000 bits per second (30 kb/s) can be transmitted.

Using ASK, FSK, or two-state PSK is inefficient. If there were four states (four amplitudes, four frequencies, or four phases), the number of bits per second per hertz would double from one to two, and the occupied bandwidth would be cut in half. The modulation scheme would be more complex, but double the efficiency.

On the other hand, eight levels allow for three bits. Now the efficiency of three bits per second per hertz could be achieved. By modulating at sixteen levels (four bits), the efficiency is four bits per second per hertz.

Signal characteristics that can be modifiedThere are only three characteristics of a signal that can be changed over time: amplitude, phase, or frequency. However, phase and frequency are just differentways to view or measure the same signal change.In AM, the amplitude of a high-frequency carrier signal is varied in proportion to the instantaneous amplitude of the modulating message signal.Frequency Modulation (FM) is the most popular analog modulation technique used in mobile communications systems. In FM, the amplitude of the modulating carrier is kept constant while its frequency is varied by the modulating message signal.Amplitude and phase can be modulated simultaneously and separately, but this is difficult to generate, and especially difficult to detect. Instead, in practical systemsthe signal is separated into another set of independent components: I (Inphase) and Q (Quadrature). These components are orthogonal and do not interfere with each other.

Polar display—magnitude and phase represented togetherA simple way to view amplitude and phase is with the polar diagram. The carrier becomes a frequency and phase reference and the signal is interpreted relative to the carrier. The signal can be expressed in polar form as a magnitude and a phase. The phase is relative to a reference signal, the carrier in most communication systems. The magnitude is either an absolute or relative value. Both are used in digital communication systems. Polar diagrams are the basis of many displays used in digital communications, although it is common to describe the signal vector by its rectangular coordinates of I (In-phase) and Q (Quadrature).

Signal changes or modifications in polar formFigure 6 shows different forms of modulation in polar form. Magnitude is represented as the distance from the center and phase is represented as the angle. Amplitude modulation (AM) changes only the magnitude of the signal. Phase modulation (PM) changes only the phase of the signal. Amplitude and phase modulation can be used together. Frequency modulation (FM) looks similar to phase modulation, though frequency is the controlled parameter, rather than relative phase.One example of the difficulties in RF design can be illustrated with simple amplitude modulation.Generating AM with no associated angular modulation should result in a straight line on a polardisplay. This line should run from the origin to some peak radius or amplitude value. In practice,however, the line is not straight. The amplitude modulation itself often can cause a small amount of unwanted phase modulation. The result is a curved line. It could also be a loop if there is anyhysteresis in the system transfer function. Some amount of this distortion is inevitable in any systemwhere modulation causes amplitude changes. Therefore, the degree of effective amplitude modulation in a system will affect some distortion parameters.

Why to use I and Q?Digital modulation is easy to accomplish with I/Q modulators. Most digital modulation maps the data to a number of discrete points on the I/Q plane. These are known as constellation points. As the signal moves from one point to another, simultaneous amplitude and phase modulation usually results. To accomplish this with an amplitude modulator and a phase modulator is difficult and complex. It is also impossible with a conventional phase modulator. The signal may, in principle, circle the origin in one direction forever, necessitating infinite phase shifting capability. Alternatively, simultaneous AM and Phase Modulation is easy with an I/Q modulator. The I and Q control signals are bounded, but infinite phase wrap is possible by properly phasing the I and Q signals.

5.3.1 Yleistä

Digital modulation types—variationsThe basic modulation types form the building blocks for many systems. There are three main variations on these basic building blocks that are used in communications systems: I/Q offset modulation, differential modulation, and constant envelope modulation.

258


5.3.2. PSK

Phase Shift Keying

One of the simplest forms of digital modulation is binary or Bi-Phase Shift Keying (BPSK). One application where this is used is for deep space telemetry. The phase of a constant amplitude carrier signal moves between zero and 180 degrees. On an Iand Q diagram, the I state has two different values. There are two possible locations in the state diagram, so a binary one or zero can be sent. The symbol rate is one bit per symbol.

A more common type of phase modulation is Quadrature Phase Shift Keying (QPSK). It is used extensively in applications including CDMA (Code Division Multiple Access) cellular service, wireless local loop, Iridium (a voice/data satellite system) and DVB-S (Digital Video Broadcasting — Satellite). Quadrature means that the signal shifts between phase states which are separated by 90 degrees. The signal shifts in increments of 90 degrees from 45 to 135, –45, or –135 degrees. These points are chosen as they can be easily implemented using an I/Q modulator. Only two I values and two Q values are needed and this gives two bits per symbol.There are four states because 22 = 4. It is therefore a more bandwidth-efficient type of modulation than BPSK, potentially twice as efficient.

The diagram above and on the following page illustrate quadrature phase shift keying.

Used by both cellular and PCS systems, quadrature phase shift keying (QPSK) increases the modulation efficiency from binary PSK. In binary PSK, one symbol phase (0 or 180 degrees) at the modulation stage represents one bit. In QPSK, one symbol (one of four phases) at the modulation stage represents two bits. The four phases used are 0, +90, -90, and 180 degrees. Half of the bit stream goes to the I (in-phase) multiplier, which has phase’s 0 and 180 degrees, and the other half goes to the Q (quadrature or out-of-phase)multiplier, which has the phase’s +90 and –90 degrees.

QPSK can be thought of as two binary PSK modulators. While this is a relatively robust signal, it has a significant component of amplitude variation. The envelope of amplitude of the composite signal varies with modulation. Occasionally, the 180-degree phase shift can cause the envelope to go to zero instantly. Therefore, transmitter amplifiers should be linear. This type of modulation is typically used to transmit from the base station to the mobile (forward link). Since this form of modulation is the linear combination of two constant envelope modulation schemes, the result has a constant envelope as well.

Offset QPSK (OQPSK)

The circles in the diagram above represent the target areas in which the receiver looks for zeros and ones. It is not a single point due to the presence of noise, interference, or phase errors in the equipment, but is an area or search window defined by phase relationships. This adds reliability when wave forms are warped and reflected.

I/Q offset modulationOne example of offset modulation is Offset QPSK (OQPSK). This is used in the cellular CDMA (Code Division Multiple Access) system for the reverse (mobile to base) link. In QPSK, the I and Q bit streams are switched at the same time. The symbol clocks, or the I and Q digital signal clocks, are synchronized. In Offset QPSK (OQPSK), the I and Q bit streams are offset in their relative alignment by one bit period (one half of a symbol period). Since the transitions of I and Q are offset, at any given time only one of the two bit streams can change values. This creates a dramatically different constellation, even though there are still just two I/Q values. This has power efficiency advantages. In OQPSK the signal trajectories are modified by the symbol clock offset so that the carrier amplitude does not go through or near zero (the center of the constellation). The spectral efficiency is the same with two I states and two Q states. The reduced amplitude variations (perhaps 3 dB for OQPSK, versus 30 to 40 dB for QPSK) allow a more power-efficient, less linear RF power amplifier to be used.

The diagram above and on the following page illustrate offset QPSK.

Like QPSK, the unfiltered offset quadrature phase shift keying (OQPSK) signal has a constant envelope. However, the two streams do not change status at the same time, thus eliminating the 180-degree phase change. The envelope will not go to zero as it does with QPSK, meaning that nonlinear amplification can be used. Less linear but more efficient amplifiers can be used, which makes this modulation technique ideal for battery-powered transmitters. OQPSK is typically used for mobile to base station station (reverse link) modulation.

Because the number of OQPSK bits per second is the same as in QPSK, OQPSK requires the same bandwidth. The slight delay avoids the 180-degree zero crossing shift. This allows cell phone manufacturers to use cheaper, less linear and more efficient amplifiers. This modulation technique is ideal for battery-powered transmitters.

Two commonly used signal constellations of QPSK; the arrows indicate the paths along which the QPSK

modulator can change its state.

Eight possible phase states for the π/4-shifted QPSK modulator.

Differential modulationOne variation of differential modulation is differential QPSK (DQPSK). Differential means that the information is not carried by the absolute state, it is carried by the transition between states. In some cases there are also restrictions on allowable transitions. This occurs in π/4 DQPSK where the carrier trajectory does not go through the origin.

265


The reason for choosing π/4-DQPSK is based on having the choice of a power-efficient modulation or a spectral-efficient modulation.

For a power-efficient modulation, the dynamic power range of the nonlinear amplifier is applied to increase power efficiency.

In a power-efficient modulation, spectral regrowth is a problem that reduces spectral efficiency. For a modulation with spectral efficiency, a linear amplifier is used to reduce the spectral regrowth.
