III. Specific Objectives:

QUESTION 1: What is the relationship between the bit rate of these two
digital signals and the bit rate of the Sequence Generator
module’s output?

QUESTION 2: What feature of the Multiplier’s output suggests that it’s a

BPSK signal?

QUESTION 3: What type of signal is present on the Multiplier’s output?

QUESTION 4: According to the theory, what type of digital signal

transmission is now present on the Adder module’s output?

QUESTION 5: What effect did doubling the data rate have on the signal’s
bandwidth?
QUESTION 6: Did adding the BPSK signal have any effect on the Adder
module’s output? If so, what?

QUESTION 7: Why does the recovered signal have 3 or 4 voltages levels

instead of 2 levels as you would expect for a digital signal?

QUESTION 8: What is the present phase relationship between the local

carrier and the carrier signals used to generate the PSK I
and PSKQ signals?

QUESTION 9: What is the new phase relationship between the local

carrier and the carrier signals used to generate PSK I and
PSKQ signals?

QUESTION 10: Why is your demodulator considered to be only one half of

a full QPSK receiver?

IV. Laboratory Procedure and Data Result

V. Answers to Question

1. The two digital signals have half of the bit rate of the Sequence
Generator module’s output.
2. The signal phase reverses on the sequence’s transitions.
3. BPSK
4. QPSK
5. Nothing.
6. Yes. The power density of the sidebands increased.
7. The misaligned phase creates midlevel signals rather than
maximal level signals.
8. The locally generated carrier is in phase with the PSK I signal’s
carrier and 90degrees out of phase with the PSK Q signal’s
carrier.
9. The locally generated carrier is in phase with the PSK Q signal’s
carrier and 90degrees with the PSKI signal’s carrier
 10. The original data is split up and transmitted two bits at a
time. This receiver can recover one set of bits at a time or the
other but not both.
