PAM Demodulation Simulation: Theory, Working & Waveforms


Virtual Labs

Instructions for Pulse Amplitude Modulation (PAM)

  • Step 1: Click on 'Generate Message' button to generate input message signal
  • Step 2: Then click on 'Generate Carrier' button to generate carrier signal. You can change the message and carrier signal frequencies from the input field. The carrier frequency has to be more than the message frequency
  • Step 3: Click on 'Generate PAM Signal' button to generate Pulse Amplitude Modulated (PAM) Signal
  • Step 4: Click the 'Show Frequency Spectrums' button to view the PAM spectrum

PAM




Pulse Amplitude Demodulation

The PAM spectrum contains the original baseband spectrum plus replicas centered around multiples of the sampling frequency. An LPF isolates the baseband copy and rejects those higher-frequency replicas. The PAM signal already contains samples of the message amplitude, so the reconstruction LPF smooths those samples back into the original message.

OFDM Symbols and Subcarriers Explained

This article explains how OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) symbols and subcarriers work. It covers modulation, mapping symbols to subcarriers, subcarrier frequency spacing, IFFT synthesis, cyclic prefix, and transmission. Step 1: Modulation First, modulate the input bitstream. For example, with 16-QAM , each group of 4 bits maps to one QAM symbol. Suppose we generate a sequence of QAM symbols: s0, s1, s2, s3, s4, s5, …, s63 Step 2: Mapping Symbols to Subcarriers Assume N sub = 8 subcarriers. Each OFDM symbol in the frequency domain contains 8 QAM symbols (one per subcarrier): Mapping (example) OFDM symbol 1 → s0, s1, s2, s3, s4, s5, s6, s7 OFDM symbol 2 → s8, s9, s10, s11, s12, s13, s14, s15 … OFDM sym...

Design of CMOS XOR/XNOR Gates

Design of CMOS XOR/XNOR Gates The semiconductor industry has experienced rapid integration of multimedia applications into mobile electronics, leading to very high integration density in CMOS VLSI. As operating frequencies increase, power consumption, speed, silicon area, and reliability become critical considerations. The XOR-XNOR circuits are fundamental building blocks in arithmetic circuits (Full Adders, Multipliers), compressors, comparators, parity checkers, code converters, error-detecting/correcting codes, and phase detectors. Their performance directly impacts the complex circuits they are used in. Design goals include full output voltage swing, low power consumption, reduced transistor count, minimal delay, and simultaneous non-skewed outputs. Static Logic (Static CMOS) Stat...
