Modulation

This document discusses three types of pulse modulation techniques: Pulse Amplitude Modulation (PAM), Pulse Time Modulation (PTM), and Pulse Code Modulation (PCM). PAM varies the amplitude of pulses to represent the amplitude of an analog signal. PTM encodes sample values of an analog signal onto the time axis by varying either the width (PWM) or position (PPM) of pulses. PCM represents the amplitude of an analog signal as a binary number using a series of pulses. Block and schematic diagrams are provided to illustrate each technique.

Pulse Amplitude Modulation (PAM)

Pulse Time Modulation (PTM)


Pulse Code Modulation (PCM)
Pulse Amplitude Modulation
Pulse-amplitude modulation (PAM) a series of pulses in which the amplitude of each pulse
represents the amplitude of the information signal at a given time. In modulated signal (PAM), the
width and position of pulses are constant while the amplitude of pulses varies proportionally with
the amplitude of analogical useful signal. Carrier signal is from a clock.
The modulator transforms the analogical useful signal into a succession of rectangles.
These rectangles are formed following the action of the sampler-blocker. Indeed, the taken
samples, with regular intervals of time, on the useful signal are maintained for certain duration.

Pulse Time Modulation
Pulse Time Modulation (PTM) is a class of signaling technique that encodes the sample
values of an analog signal onto the time axis of a digital signal.

The two main types of pulse time modulation are:


1. Pulse Width Modulation (PWM)
2. Pulse Position Modulation (PPM)

In PWM the sample values of the analog waveform are used to determine the width of the
pulse signal. Either instantaneous or natural sampling can be used.
In PPM the analog sample values determine the position of a narrow pulse relative to the
clocking time. It is possible to obtain PPM from PWM by using a mono-stable multivibrator
circuit.
