Phase-Locked Loop Can be a whole course. The most important part of receiver. Definition: a closed-loop feedback control system that generates and outputs a signal in relation to the frequency and phase of an input ("reference") signalfeedback A phase-locked loop circuit responds both to the frequency and phase of the input signals, automatically raising or lowering the frequency of a controlled oscillator until it is matched to the reference in both frequency and phase. oscillator

FM Basics VHF (30M-300M) high-fidelity broadcast Wideband FM, (FM TV), narrow band FM (two-way radio) 1933 FM and angle modulation proposed by Armstrong, but success by Digital: Frequency Shift Key (FSK), Phase Shift Key (BPSK, QPSK, 8PSK,…) AM/FM: Transverse wave/Longitudinal wave
Angle Modulation vs. AM Summarize: properties of amplitude modulation –Amplitude modulation is linear u just move to new frequency band, spectrum shape does not change. No new frequencies generated. –Spectrum: S(f) is a translated version of M(f) –Bandwidth ≤ 2W Properties of angle modulation –They are nonlinear u spectrum shape does change, new frequencies generated. –S(f) is not just a translated version of M(f) –Bandwidth is usually much larger than 2W
Angle Modulation Pro/Con Application Why need angle modulation? –Better noise reduction –Improved system fidelity Disadvantages –Low bandwidth efficiency –Complex implementations Applications –FM radio broadcast –TV sound signal –Two-way mobile radio –Cellular radio –Microwave and satellite communications
Instantaneous Frequency Angle modulation has two forms - Frequency modulation (FM): message is represented as the variation of the instantaneous frequency of a carrier - Phase modulation (PM): message is represented as the variation of the instantaneous phase of a carrier
Phase Modulation PM (phase modulation) signal
Frequency Modulation FM (frequency modulation) signal (Assume zero initial phase)
FM Characteristics Characteristics of FM signals –Zero-crossings are not regular –Envelope is constant –FM and PM signals are similar

Frequency Modulation FM (frequency modulation) signal (Assume zero initial phase)
Example m(t) 0 T 2T Consider m(t)- a square wave- as shown. The FM wave for this m(t) is shown below.
Frequency Deviation Frequency deviation Δf –difference between the maximum instantaneous and carrier frequency –Definition: –Relationship with instantaneous frequency –Question: Is bandwidth of s(t) just 2Δf? No, instantaneous frequency is not equivalent to spectrum frequency (with non-zero power)! S(t) has ∞ spectrum frequency (with non-zero power).
Modulation Index Indicate by how much the modulated variable (instantaneous frequency) varies around its unmodulated level (message frequency) Bandwidth A
Narrow Band Angle Modulation Definition Equation Comparison with AM Only phase difference of Pi/2 Frequency: similar Time: AM: frequency constant FM: amplitude constant Conclusion: NBFM signal is similar to AM signal NBFM has also bandwidth 2W. (twice message signal bandwidth)
