WHAT IS BASEBAND ?
The signal is in its original form, not changed by modulation.
Baseband is the original information that is to be sent.
Example: If the channel is fiber optic cable, the transmitter converts the
baseband signal into light frequency and the transmitted signal is light.
Transmitter also use to reformat/reshape the signal so that the channel will
not much distorted.
Modulation takes place in the transmitter.
Modulation is a process of putting information onto high frequency carrier
for transmission.

Receiver decodes the received signal back to message signal i.e it attempts
to translate the received signal back into the original message signal sent by
the source.
Reprocess the signal received from the channel by undoing the signal
modification made by transmitter and the channel.
Extract the desired signal from the received signal and convert it to a form
that suitable for the output transducer.

The dB value is calculated by taking the log of the ratio of the measured or
calculated power (PS) wrt a reference power (PN) level.

f
Speed of light, c = 3 108 meters/second
Therefore:
= 3 108 / f
Example:
What is the wavelength if the frequency is 4MHz?
= 3 108 / 4MHz
= 75 meters (m)
**Antenna length is usually or of the waves it is set up to transmit
(depends on type of antenna used).
27
Ground Wave
Radio frequency propagation that uses the area between the
surface of the earth and the ionosphere for transmission.

The ability of the ionosphere to return the radio wave depends on the
ion density, frequency of radio wave and angle of transmission.

5) Frequency range of 87.5 MHz until 108 MHz is allocated for FM radio
broadcasting services. Assume the radio broadcast service support voice
application only. In terms of practicality, is 10 MHz is sufficient for the
carrier frequency? Give TWO (2) reasons why you agree/disagree.
6) A typical SNR value for data transmission through fiber optic cable is
18dB. Determine the data rate if the optical channel bandwidth is 100
GHz.
7) Half duplex antenna is used to transmit LTE signal, operating at 2.7 GHz
frequency. How long it takes for the RF signal to travel over 200 km
distance? Determine the antenna size.
8) DanaTel is a GSM 900 network operator that operates in the frequency
range of 890 to 950 MHz. A mobile phone manufacturer needs to decide
either to use a half-wave or a quarter-wave dipole antenna in order to
transmit a voice signal of 4 kHz over DanaTel network. Propose the
solution if the size of the mobile phone antenna is 8 cm. Justify your
selection with calculations.
