  2. Recap: Physical Layer • Physical layer is the lowest layer in the hierarchy of the hybrid reference model • The purpose of physical layer is to transport a raw bit stream from one machine to another. CEN 4500, S. Masoud Sadjadi

Masoud Sadjadi

  4. The Theoretical Basis for Data Comm. • Theoretical Basis • Information can be transmitted on wires by varying some physical properties such as voltage or current. • We represent the value of voltage or current as a function of time (f(t))to model the behavior of signal. • Fourier Analysis • Bandwidth-Limited Signals • Maximum Data Rate of a Channel CEN 4500, S. Masoud Sadjadi

  5. Fourier Analysis • Any reasonably behaved periodic function can be constructed as the sum of a (possibly infinite) number of sines and cosines. • You can see how it works by trying it at: http://www.jhu.edu/~signals/phasorlecture2/indexphasorlect2.htm • g(t)=1/2 c + n=1- ansin(2nft) + n=1- bncos(2nft) • A data signal that has finite duration (which all of them do) can be handled by just imagining that it repeats the entire pattern over and over forever. • Let’s see how we can use Fourier analysis to transmit the ASCII character “b” encoded in an 8-bit byte. (“b” is 98 or 01100010) CEN 4500, S. Masoud Sadjadi

  6. (a) A binary signal and its root-mean-square Fourier amplitudes. (b) The signal resulted from a channel that allows only the first harmonic to pass. (c) The resulted signalfrom a channel passing the first two harmonics. Bandwidth-Limited Signals CEN 4500, S. Masoud Sadjadi

  7. (d) The resulted signalfrom a channel passing the first four harmonics. (e) The resulted signalfrom a channel passing the first eight harmonics. Bandwidth-Limited Signals (2) CEN 4500, S. Masoud Sadjadi

  8. Bandwidth-Limited Signals (3) • Attenuation: No transmission facility can transmit signals without loosing some power in the process. • Distortion: Unfortunately, all transmission facilities diminish different frequencies by different amount, thus introducing distortion. • Bandwidth: The range of frequencies transmitted without being strongly attenuated. • The cutoff in practice is often from 0 to the frequency at which half the power gets through. CEN 4500, S. Masoud Sadjadi

  9. Bandwidth-Limited Signals (4) • Bandwidth • is a physical property of a transmission medium • depends on construction, thickness, and length of the medium. • Also, a filter might be introduced to limit the amount of bandwidth available to a customer • A telephone wire may have a bandwidth of 1MHz for short distances, but telephone companies add a filter restricting each customer to about 3100 Hz CEN 4500, S. Masoud Sadjadi

  10. Bandwidth-Limited Signals (5) • Data rate and harmonics (terms) • The time required to transmit “b”, 8 bits, on a b bits/sec line is 8/b sec. • So, the frequency of the first harmonic (term in Fourier transform) is b/8 Hz. • Ordinary telephone line • Often called a voice-grade line • Has an artificially-introduced cutoff frequency just about 3000 Hz • The number of the highest harmonic for 8-bit data that can pass is 3000/(b/8) or 24000/b. CEN 4500, S. Masoud Sadjadi

  11. Bandwidth-Limited Signals (6) • Making accurate reception of original bit stream is tricky, when going over 4800 bps • Limiting the bandwidth limits the data rate. We need sophisticated coding schemes. Relation between data rate and harmonics. CEN 4500, S. Masoud Sadjadi

  12. Maximum Data Rate of a Channel • Even perfect channel has a finite transmission capacity. • An arbitrary signal that has been run through a low-pass filter of bandwidth H can be completely reconstructed by making only 2H (exact) samples per second. • Sampling faster than 2H times per second is pointless, because the higher frequency components that such samples can recover have already been filtered out. CEN 4500, S. Masoud Sadjadi

  13. Maximum Data Rate of a Channel (2) • Nyquist’s Theorem States (Noiseless Channel): maximum data rate = 2H log2V bits/sec • For example, a noiseless 3-kHz channel cannot transmit binary (i.e., two level) signals at a rate exceeding 6kbps. • Shannon’s Results (Channel with thermal noise): maximum data rate = H log2(1 + S/N) bits/sec • For example, a channel of 3-kHz bandwidth with a signal to thermal noise ratio of 30 dB (typical in analog part of the telephone system) can never transmit much more than 30kpbs, no matter how many or how few signal levels are used and how often the samples are taken. • The minimum of the above two should be considered. CEN 4500, S. Masoud Sadjadi
