Which of the following is false with respect to pulse position modulation?

A. Modulates a high frequency carrier
B. Pulse is narrow
C. Pulse width changes in accordance with the amplitude of modulating signal
D. Can be transmitted in broadband

A

C. Pulse width changes in accordance with the amplitude of modulating signal

In PPM, the pulses change position according to the amplitude of the analog signal. The pulses are very narrow. These pulse signals may be transmitted in a baseband form, but in most applications, they modulate a high-frequency radio carrier.

The length of the code-word obtained by encoding quantized sample is equal to

A. I=2loq(to the base 2)L
B. I=log(to the base 2)L
C. I=log(to the base 2)L/2
D. I=log (to the base 10)L

A

B. I=log(to the base 2)L

The quantized samples which are digitally encoded into I bit value code-word. The length I can be calculated as I=log(to the base 2)L.

95
Q

In a TDD one channel is sufficient for transmission.

A. True
B. Partly true
C. Partly false
D. False

A

A. True

Time-division duplexing (TDD) means that signals are transmitted simultaneously on a single channel by interleaving them in different time slots. Each time slot may contain one data word, such as 1 byte from an A/D converter or a D/A converter.
As long as the serial data rate is high enough, a user will never know the difference. The primary benefit of TDD is that only one channel is needed. It saves spectrum space and cost.

96
Q

All local and long-distance connections are digital.

A. True
B. Partly true
C. Partly false
D. False

A

A. True

All modern telephone systems use digital transmission via PCM and TDM. The only place where analog signals are still used is in the local loop-the connection between a telephone company’s central office (CO) and the subscriber’s telephone, known as the customer premises equipment (CPE). All local and long-distance connections are digital.

97
Q

ASCIl code is a

A. Fixed Length Code
B. None of these choices
C. Fixed & Variable length code
D. Variable length code
