Assignment 2 1. Extend Block Diagram: Sequence 1

The document describes extending a block diagram to include a third baseband signal and chipping sequence. Excel is used to generate the third signal and random chipping sequence. The results show the three sine waves, square waves, chipped signals, composite signal, and recovered signals after multiplication and integration. While somewhat similar, the recovered signals are phase shifted and changed in magnitude compared to the originals likely due to the chipping sequences and lowpass filter. Bandpass filtering is also emulated in Excel to sample signals at different rates, demonstrating attenuation and phase shift related to the resonant frequency and Q factor. Increasing the Q factor and sampling interval can minimize loss of information from the original to discrete signal.

2. A third baseband signal was generated in the spreadsheet as shoen below

3. A third chipping sequence is randomly generated so that is orthogonal to the I and Q


sequences and has the same chipping rate.
4. At this point, the excel spreadsheet has 3 sines waves and 3 square waves as seen below,

Even though, the recovered signals are somewhat similar to the original signals, it is clear that the
recovered signals are phase shifted and their magnitude has slightly changed compared to the
original signal. This could be due to the chipping sequences not being “fast” enough with respect
to the baseband signals as well as the lowpass filter running average of the adjacent samples not
being accurate enough.

6. Now, using excel a bandpass filter has been emulated to sample a sinusoidal signal at different
sampling rates.

7. Show that the magnitude and phase changes caused by the filter are similar to those created by
the Laplace transform implementation of the filter that is shown in the presentation material on
filters.

From figure 19, we can see how near resonance, the filter output is less attenuated, and the phase
shift is minimal. From figure 20, we can see how at resonance, the input and output are almost
indistinguishable. Last in figure 21, we can see how far from the resonant frequency, the filter
attenuates, and phase shift is very significant.

8. Discuss, using careful explanation, example, and/or computation, how the resonant frequency and
Q factor of the Laplace-based filter relates to the sampling interval and number of samples used
in the sampling filter.

In general, resonant occurs when the reactive component of the circuit is zero, which means the
circuit is operating as resistive nature. Quality factor increases the quality of the inductor or
capacitor and it indicates the the quality of the Laplace based filter.

Sampling frequency means the number samples generated in one second. If you increase the
sampling frequency or the sampling interval, the sampling period will be reduced because the
sampling period is inversely proportional to the sampling frequency. If the sampling interval
increases, then the loss signal will be reduced, and it will mostly relate to original signal. These
means that increasing the quality factor and the sampling interval we can minimize the loss of
information from original signal to converted discrete signal.
