Line Coding Schemes

Line coding is the process of converting binary data, a


sequence of bits to a digital signal.
Course Name: Data Communications

Level : UG

Learning Objectives
After interacting with this Learning Object, the learner will be able to:
Convert the sequence of binary digits into a digital signal

Considerations for choosing a good


signal element referred to as line
encoding

Baseline wandering - If the incoming signal does not vary over a long period of
time, the baseline will drift and thus cause errors in detection of incoming data elements.

A good line encoding scheme will prevent long runs of fixed amplitude.

DC components - when the voltage level remains constant for long periods of time,

there is an increase in the low frequencies of the signal.


This will require the removal of the dc component of a transmitted signal.

Self synchronization - the clocks at the sender and the receiver must have the

same bit interval.


If the receiver clock is faster or slower it will misinterpret the incoming bit stream.

Binary data can be transmitted using a number of different


types of pulses. The choice of a particular pair of pulses to
represent the symbols 1 and 0 is called Line Coding.

particular line code is selected.

Illustration of different line coding schemes

Bipolar - AMI and Pseudoternary


Code uses 3 voltage levels: - +, 0, -, to
represent the symbols (note not transitions to
zero as in RZ).
Voltage level for one symbol is at 0 and the
other alternates between + & -.
Bipolar Alternate Mark Inversion (AMI) - the
0 symbol is represented by zero voltage and
the 1 symbol alternates between +V and -V.
Pseudoternary is the reverse of AMI.

Representing Multilevel Codes


We use the notation mBnL, where m is
the length of the binary pattern, B
represents binary data, n represents the
length of the signal pattern and L the
number of levels.
L = B binary, L = T for 3 ternary, L = Q
for 4 quaternary.

Multilevel: 2B1Q scheme

For example: B8ZS substitutes eight


consecutive zeros with 000VB0VB.
The V stands for violation, it violates the
line encoding rule
B stands for bipolar, it implements the
bipolar line encoding rule

Two cases of B8ZS scrambling technique

HDB3 substitutes four consecutive


zeros with 000V or B00V depending
on the number of nonzero pulses after
the last substitution.
If # of non zero pulses is even the
substitution is B00V to make total # of
non zero pulse even.
If # of non zero pulses is odd the
substitution is 000V to make total # of
non zero pulses even.
