Study The Time Division Multiplexing (TDM) and Demultiplexing

This experiment aims to study time division multiplexing (TDM) and demultiplexing. TDM allows multiple data signals to be transmitted over a common channel by dividing the time domain into fixed time slots. At the transmitter, a commutator multiplexes input signals into a combined signal by sampling each input in turn. At the receiver, a decommutator separates the signals back into their original time slots. The experiment uses equipment like a CRO, trainer kit and connecting wires to generate and observe TDM and demultiplexed signals. Observations of the multiplexed and demultiplexed signal frequencies and amplitudes are recorded.

Name of the Experiment

Study the Time Division Multiplexing (TDM) and Demultiplexing.


Aim of the Experiment: To study the Time Division Multiplexing (TDM) and Demultiplexing

Apparatus Required:

1. CRO
2. Trainer Kit
3. Connecting Wires

Theory:  It is a multiplexing technique by which multiple data signals can be transmitted over a
common communication channel in different time slots is known as Time Division
Multiplexing (TDM). It allows the division of the overall time domain into various fixed length
time slots. A single frame is said to be transmitted when it’s all signal components gets
transmitted over the channel.
As we know, multiplexing allows the transmission of several signals over a common channel.
However, one may need to differentiate between the various signal for proper data transmission.
So, in time division multiplexing, the complete signal gets transmitted by occupying
different time slots.
The figure below shows the block diagram of a TDM system employing both transmitter and
receiver section.

The technique efficiently utilizes the complete channel for data transmission hence sometimes
known as PAM/TDM. This is so because a TDM system uses a pulse amplitude modulation. In
this modulation technique, each pulse holds some short time duration allowing maximal channel
usage.

Here at the beginning, the system consists of multiple LPF depending on the number of data
inputs. These low pass filters are basically anti-aliasing filters that eliminate the aliasing of the
data input signal.

The output of the LPF is then fed to the commutator. As per the rotation of the commutator the
samples of the data inputs are collected by it. Here, f s is the rate of rotation of the commutator,
thus  denotes the sampling frequency of the system.

Suppose we have n data inputs, then one after the other, according to the rotation, these data
inputs after getting multiplexed transmitted over the common channel. Now, at the receiver end,
a de-commutator is placed that is synchronized with the commutator at the transmitting end. This
de-commutator separates the time division multiplexed signal at the receiving end.

The commutator and de-commutator must have same rotational speed so as to have accurate
demultiplexing of the signal at the receiving end. According to the rotation performed by the de-
commutator, the samples are collected by the LPF and the original data input is recovered at the
receiver.
Let fm be the maximum signal frequency and fs is the sampling frequency then

Thus, the time duration in between successive sample is given as,

Precaution:

 Check for loose contacts of wires and components.

 Keep all the control knobs in the minimum position.

 Before switch on the power supply get the circuit connections verified by the teacher.

 Adjust the control knobs smoothly.

 After taking the readings bring back all the control knobs to minimum position.

 Switch off the power supply before leaving the experimental table.

Conclusion:

The TDM Signal is observed in the CRO and verifies the demultiplexed signal and plots the
graph.
