Digital Modulation Techniques

This document discusses different digital modulation techniques used in digital-to-analog signal conversion. It introduces amplitude shift keying (ASK), frequency shift keying (FSK), and phase shift keying (PSK), including binary PSK, quadrature PSK, and differential PSK. It also discusses M-ary encoding techniques which transmit multiple bits simultaneously using M-ary ASK, M-ary FSK, and M-ary PSK to reduce bandwidth. These common digital modulation techniques are explored in more depth in subsequent chapters.

Digital Modulation Techniques

Digital-to-Analog signals is the next conversion we will discuss in this chapter. These techniques are
also called as Digital Modulation techniques.
Digital Modulation provides more information capacity, high data security, quicker system availability
with great quality communication. Hence, digital modulation techniques have a greater demand, for
their capacity to convey larger amounts of data than analog modulation techniques.

There are many types of digital modulation techniques and also their combinations, depending upon
the need. Of them all, we will discuss the prominent ones.

ASK – Amplitude Shift Keying


The amplitude of the resultant output depends upon the input data whether it should be a zero level or
a variation of positive and negative, depending upon the carrier frequency.

FSK – Frequency Shift Keying


The frequency of the output signal will be either high or low, depending upon the input data applied.

PSK – Phase Shift Keying


The phase of the output signal gets shifted depending upon the input. These are mainly of two types,
namely Binary Phase Shift Keying B
BPPS
SKK and Quadrature Phase Shift Keying Q
QPPS
SKK ,

according to the number of phase shifts. The other one is Differential Phase Shift Keying D
DPPS
SKK

which changes the phase according to the previous value.

M-ary Encoding

M-ary Encoding techniques are the methods where more than two bits are made to transmit
simultaneously on a single signal. This helps in the reduction of bandwidth.
The types of M-ary techniques are −
M-ary ASK
M-ary FSK
M-ary PSK

All of these are discussed in subsequent chapters.
