Experiment 1

Title: Amplitude Shift Keying(ASK)


Aim: Generation and demodulation of the Amplitude Shift Keying signal.
Tools Required:
ASK Modulator and Demodulator Kit

Theory:
Amplitude Shift Keying (ASK) is a digital modulation technique where the carrier
signal’s amplitude is varied to represent binary data. In its simplest form, Binary
ASK (On-Off Keying), a binary “1” is represented by a carrier wave with a specific
amplitude “A”, while a binary “0” is represented by zero amplitude (no carrier
wave).

In ASK, only the amplitude changes while the carrier’s frequency and phase
remain constant. However, ASK is susceptible to noise since any interference
affecting amplitude can distort the signal. Consequently, it’s not as reliable in
environments with high noise.
ASK is bandwidth-efficient only for low data rates and finds use in optical and
infrared communication where amplitude distinctions are easy to detect. However,
due to its noise sensitivity, ASK is often replaced by more robust modulation
methods in modern digital communication systems, especially in wireless
channels.
Block Diagram:
Procedure:
1. Connect the board and switch on the power supply.
2. Connect S-DATA(S1) to DATA IN(S28)
3. Connect carrier generator block SIN-HI(24) to SIN-HI(25).
4. Connect SIN-LO(S26) to T GND.
5. Check for the ASK modulated output (S27).

Result:
ASK Modulation and Demodulation has been implemented and verified.
