Pulse Modulation
• What if the Carrier Signal were a Pulse Train Instead of a
Sinusoid?
• Three Approaches
Pulse Amplitude Modulation (PAM)
Pulse Width Modulation (PWM)
Pulse Position Modulation (PPM)
• Each of these Approaches Uses a Discrete Signal to Carry an
Analog Signal

•The N Harmonic of a Pulse Train
Vn = (Vττ/T)[sin(nx)/(nx)] = (Vττ/T)sinc(ττ/T)
T is the Interval Between Pulses (i.e., the Period)
x = πτπτ/T

• Find the “Zeros”
nx
We Need the Location of sin( ) = 0
nπτπτ T ππ
This Occurs When / =
nT ττ
That is, When / =1/ (By Substitution)
Let f =1/T, So Zeros Occurs at nf0 = 1/ττ
0
n f ττ
The First Zero Occurs at =1, or at the Frequency =1/
• Note The Following
Most of the Signal Energy (92%) is Contained in the
f ττ
Frequency Between 0 and =1/
Thus, we can Ignore the Higher Frequency Components

Pulse Amplitude Modulation (PAM)
• Modulate a Pulse Stream with a Signal
Used in Dimension PBX’s
Type of a AM system
• Categories
Natural PAM
Top of Pulse Conforms to the Signal Shape
Makes Mathematics Easy
Flat Top PAM
More Practical
Approaches Natural PAM for Narrow Pulses
