3.1 BFSK Modulation (Binary Frequency Shift Keying)
Binary Frequency Shift Keying (BFSK) refers to a form of frequency modulation that utilizes two unique
frequencies to convey binary information (0s and 1s). Each bit within the data stream is assigned to one
of the two frequencies, with one frequency representing a logic 1 and the alternate representing a logic 0.
Basic Concept:
• In BFSK, two different frequencies f1 and f2 are used to transmit binary data.
• A binary 0 is represented by frequency f1 , and a binary 1 is represented by frequency f2 .
Mathematical Representation:
(
A cos(2πf1 t) for bit ’0’
s(t) = (1)
A cos(2πf2 t) for bit ’1’
where:
• A is the amplitude of the signal.
Bandwidth Considerations:
• The bandwidth of the BFSK signal depends on the frequency separation ∆f, Base band signal
frequency fm , and the modulation index. The bandwidth can be approximated as:
BWBF SK ≈ ∆f + 2fm (3)
3.2 Non-Coherent Demodulation of BFSK
Non-coherent demodulation describes a technique in which the receiver does not require any prior knowl-
edge of the carrier phase, meaning there is no synchronization regarding the carrier’s phase between the
transmitter and receiver. This approach is advantageous in real-world systems where achieving phase
synchronization can be challenging or expensive.

4 Procedure
(FSK Modulation)
1. Read IC data sheet (XR-2206), and then choose Suitable Circuit for FSK Modulation.
2. Connect the FSK Modulator circuit shown in Figure 1 and Give Square wave signal of 200 Hz and
2.5 Vpp as input.
3. As the formula given in the data sheet calculate R1 and R2 with the given carrier signals frequencies,
f 1 = 2 KHz and f 2 =5.2 KHz.
4. Observe the time and frequency domain wave forms of FSK modulator output. Draw the output
and analyze it in both domains.
(FSK Demodulation)
1. Design the Band pass filter for different carrier frequencies and envelope detector circuit. Connect
as shown in Figure 2.
2. Give a FSK Modulated signal as input.
3. Observe FSK Demodulated output and draw it in your copy, compare it with message signal.
