IDENTIFICATION

Digital
Transmission
Digital Signal
Processing

1. It is the transmittal of digital signals between two or more

points in a communication system.
2. Is the processing of analog signals using digital methods
and includes bandlimiting the signal with filters, amplitude
equalization and phase shifting.
3. The most common circuit used for demodulating binary

Phase-Locked
Loop
Companding
Phase-Shift
Keying
Signal-Magnitude
Codes

Constellation
Diagram
Eye Patterns

FSK signals.
4. It is the process of compressing and expanding.
5. Another form of angle-modulated, constant amplitude
digital modulation.
6. Codes used for PCM, where the most significant bit(MSB)
is the sign bit and the remaining bits are used for
magnitudes.
7. A type of diagram, that only shows the relative portions of
the peak of the phasors.
8. A convenient technique for determining the effects of the
degradations introduced into the pulses as they travel to
the regenerator.

Trellis
Modulation

9. Is a modulation scheme that transmits information with

high efficiency over bandlimited channels such as
telephone lines
Level-at-a-time
__________________10.
This kind of coding compare the PAM signal to a ramp

waveform a binary counter is being at a uniform rate.

Carrier Recovery
__________________11.
The process of extracting a phase-coherent reference

carrier from a receiver signal.

Word-at-a-time
__________________12.
This codes are flash encoders and are more

complex however, they are more suitable for

high-speed application.
QAM
__________________13.
Is a form of digital modulation similar to PSK except

the digital information is contained in both amplitude and the phase of the
transmitted carrier.
Dibits
__________________14.
It is the binary input data are combined into groups of

two bits.
__________________15.
It is a way of sending multiple signals or streams of
Multiplexing
information over a communication link at the same time in the form of a single,
complex signal.
