Abstract Line coding consists of representing the digital signal to be transported by an amplitude- and time-discrete signal that is optimally tuned for the specific properties of the physical channel. There are two types of line coding which are Return-to-zero (RZ) & Non-return-to- zero (NRZ). RZ describes signal drops (returns) to zero between each pulse. NRZ represents is a binary code in which 1s are represented by one significant condition & 0s are represented by some other significant condition TDM is a method of transmitting and receiving independent signals or waveform via a common signal path that needed synchronized switches at each end of the transmission line for signal or waveform appears on the line in a fraction of time in an alternating pattern. In this case, The TDM multiplexer and TDM demultiplexer select certain waveform based on desired needed via a particular path in a fraction of time. FDM transmits the signals along the same high speed link simultaneously with each signal set at a different frequency.there are two types of FDM which are FDM Multiplexer and FDM Demultiplexer.

1. Introduction
A line code decoder is used to retrieve the original line code which chosen for the used within a communications system for baseband transmission purposes. The line coding is normally in digital data transport. A Return-to- Zero (RZ) System describes a line code which the signal drops (returns) to zero between each pulse and the signal is self-clocking. A Non-Return-to-Zero (NRZ) System is a binary code in which 1s are represented by one positive voltage and 0s are represented by one negative voltage, with no other neutral or rest condition. Pulse-code modulation Demodulator is an electronic circuit system used to extracting the original information analog signal from a modulated carried wave which has been digitally represents. In a PCM stream, the amplitude of the analog signal is sampled regularly at uniform intervals, and each sample is quantized to the nearest value within a range of digital steps. A waveform generator is a piece of electronic test equipment used to generate electrical waveforms. These waveforms can be either repetitive or single-shot which case some kind of triggering source is required which is either internal or external. The resulting waveforms can be injected into a device under test and analyzed as they progress through it, confirming the proper operation of the device. Multiplexing is the set of techniques that allows the simultaneous transmission of multiple signals across a single data link. Whenever the transmission capacity of a medium linking two devices is greater than the transmission needs of the devices, the link can be shared in order to maximize the utilization of the link, such as one cable can carry a hundred channels of TV. Meanwhile, the time-division multiplexing is multiple transmissions that can occupy a single link by subdividing them and interleaving the portions. Demultiplexing is any of several signals was put onto a single carrier, then at the other end the signals must be separated and each sent to the appropriate destination. This mean one input the shared channel is routed to one of several outputs. FDM will generate signals by each sending device modulates with different carrier frequencies. These modulated signals are combined into a single composite signal that can be transported by the link. The carrier frequencies have to be different enough to accommodate the modulation and demodulation signals. In demultiplexing process, we use filters to decompose the multiplexed signal into its constituent component signals. Then each signal is passed to an amplitude demodulation process to separate the carrier signal from the message signal. Then, the message signal is sent to the waiting receiver.

Table 5-1 shows that the waveforms between UNI-NRZ signal and data signal are similar to each other. But, the amplitude are differ a little. Since, we only need to add a buffer in front of the decoder circuit, which can recover the original input data signal which shown at Figure 5-2 above. This is the same for all the Data I/P frequencies (1kHz, 2kHz, 4kHz). The differences between the inputs and the outputs results most probably are caused by some instrumentation noise or distortion.

Figure 6-2 shows the circuit diagram of unipolar return- to-zero (UNI-RZ) decoder. The output of the UNI-RZ decoder is a NOR-RS flip-flop, which is comprised by R3, R4 and two NOR gates. TP2 is the S terminal and TP3 is the R terminal. From the results shown above, TP1 is the inverted output of the Clock input. TP2 is the filtered result of UNI-RZI/P, because of the capacitor C1. The clock signal will be inverted by a NOT gate which is comprised by the NOR gate. Then, by using XOR to operate the inverted clock signal and UNI-RZ signal and passing through a differentiator which is comprised by C2 and R2, the output will be transformed to pulse wave which is used for R terminal of RS flip-flop. UNI-RZ signal will pass through a capacitor to the S terminal of RS flip-flop. Finally by sending both UNI-RZ and clock signals into the RS flip-flop, we can recover the original input data signal.

From the Figure 13-2, FS0 and FS1are the data format selection of PCM encoder. The data format selection of PCM encoder can encode the sample to 8-bit -law format, 8-bit A-law format or 16-bit digital data format. As a result of the FS1 in the encode circuit is grounded, therefore, the FS1 in the decoder circuit must also be grounded. The selection of FS0 and FS1 of both the modulation and demodulation must be same, otherwise, the demodulated audio signal will be different from the original audio signal. In Table 13-1, TP1s are the buffer results of the inputs. So, it will be quite similar to the inputs. TP2s show the results of similar to 2048kHz Square Wave Inputs. Besides that, the TP3s show the results of similar to 8kHz Square Wave Inputs. Furthermore, TP4s show the high frequencies noises of the signals.

The combination of three waveforms in the time domain was under control by the set of binary pulses is called TDM multiplexing. It can be shown in the above picture that after the pulses are triggered the combination of the waveform is happened. The variety of shape of the combination of the waveform happened because of two or more waveform are sampled at the same rate but at slightly different times, then waveforms are be added and interleaved without mutual interaction. The different connection of TP4, TP5 and TP6 showed that the same theories is applied to all kind combination of waveform.

The multiplexer is connected to the Demultiplexer. It is used to produce a single waveform as the output. Firstly, TP4 AND O/P1
it can be observed that the combination of the waveforms. Then, when TP2 is connected, the output at O/P1 show the square waveform is observed when the pulse is triggered. The other output at O/P2 and O/P3 show the waveform and the pulse are not matched. The same happened when TP3 is connected, but the waveform is concurrently with the output at O/P2 and did not match the pulse at the output O/P1 and O/P3.Then when the TP4 is connected, the waveform match the pulse at the output O/P3 not at the O/P1 and O/P2.This is happened because the when the input is connected at the TP2,the pulse is actually readily at the O/P1,so when at O/P1,when there are pulse, the square waveform is produced. When at the output of O/P2 and O/P3, it did not match the pulses. The same happened for TP3 and TP4.

Frequency Division Multiplexing works by transmitting all of the signals along the same high speed link simultaneously with each signal set at a different frequency. For FDM to work properly frequency overlap must be avoided. Therefore, the link must have sufficient bandwidth to be able to carry the wide range of frequencies required. The demultiplexor at the receiving end works by dividing the signals by tuning into the appropriate frequency. The advantages of the FDM multiplexing are : 1. The sender can send signals continuously. 2. It also works on analog signals. 3. No dynamic coordination is necessary. For each frequency channel, an electronic oscillator generates a carrier signal, which is a steady oscillating waveform at a single frequency that functions to carry information. The carrier is much higher in frequency than the baseband signal. The carrier signal and the baseband signal are then applied to a modulator circuit. The modulator then changes some aspect of the carrier signal, such as its amplitude, frequency or phase. The carrier center frequency produces sub-frequencies from the mixing of the modulated baseband. The information from the modulated signal is carried in the sidebands each side of the carrier frequency. the sub-band frequencies of the channel must be far from each other so that they do not overlap and the sub-bands will not interfere with each another. The available channel bandwidth is divided into sub-bands; each can carry a separate modulated signal. At the receiving end, a local oscillator mixes with the carrier frequency, and the resulting baseband signal is filtered to produce each sub-band to a separate output. The DSB-SC modulation was used to implement the FDM multiplexer because both of its upper sideband and lower sideband were transmitted and the carrier is suppressed in the mean time. So the efficiency of the suppressed carrier amplitude modulation is higher than the DSB-AM.

MC1496B was designed for use where the output voltage is a product of an input voltage or signal and a switching function or carrier. Synchronous detectors are considerably more complex than simple envelope detectors. They consist of phase locked loop and multiplier circuits. Demodulation is performed by multiplying the modulated carrier by a sine wave that is phase locked to the incoming carrier. Synchronous detectors are a subset of detectors product.. The advantage of synchronous detection is that it causes less distortion than envelope detection and works well with single sideband signals. The synchronous detectors are phase sensitive. The amplitude of the demodulated signal is a function of the relative phases of the incoming carrier and the carrier generated inside the receiver. A low-pass filter is an electronic circuit that hasa constant output voltage from dc up to a cutoff frequency. As the frequency increases above the cutoff frequency, the output voltage is attenuated. The advantage of this configuration is that the op-amps high input impedance prevents excessive loading on the filters output while its low output impedance prevents the filters cut-off frequency point from being affected by changes in the impedance of the load.
4. Conclusions
As a conclusion, A line code decoder is good to retrieve the original line code which chosen for the used within a communications system. PCM Demodulator is an electronic circuit system used to extracting the original information to digitally representation. The waveform generator is a device that can be used to show different type of waveform. By having different type of waveform the result of experiment of multiplexer and Demultiplexer can be tested its usage. Multiplexer allow multiple signals to be subdividing and interleaving to be occupied as a single link. It is a combination or addition of several waveforms. Demultiplexer is an opposition of multiplexer. Its select a waveform from several waveform of the input as the output. It is triggered by the pulse or clock. FDM is a technique by which the total bandwidth available in a communication medium is divided into a series of non-overlapping frequency sub- bands, each of which is used to carry a separate signal. Whereas the FDM Demultiplexer is reverse of the FDM multiplexer but use filter to decompose the multiplexed signal into its constituent component signals.
