Chapter 4.4-4.5, S. Haykin, Communication Systems, Wiley.: Reference

The document discusses intersymbol interference (ISI) in baseband data transmission. ISI arises due to deviations in a communication channel's frequency response from ideal, causing received pulses to be affected by neighboring pulses. This can be mitigated by controlling the transmit/receive filter impulse responses to satisfy the Nyquist criterion, ensuring zero ISI between symbol intervals. Distortionless transmission requires the frequency response sum over all symbol intervals to equal the symbol period.

E.1
Introduction
Introduction
– Intersymbol interference (ISI) is different from noise in
that it is a signal-dependent form of interference that
arises because of deviations in the frequency response of
a channel from the ideal channel.
• This non-ideal communication channel is also called
dispersive

– The result of these deviation is that the received pulse


corresponding to a particular data symbol is affected by
the tail ends of the pulses representing the previous
symbols and the front ends of the pulses representing the
subsequent symbols. E.2
Introduction

– Example, for a binary PAM system without matched filter

Sample points E.3


Introduction
– Two scenarios
• The effect of ISI is negligible in comparison to that of
channel noise.
¾use a matched filter, which is the optimum linear
time-invariant filter for maximizing the peak pulse
signal-to-noise ratio.

• The received signal-to-noise ratio is high enough to


ignore the effect of channel noise (For example, a
telephone system)
¾control the shape of the received pulse.

Intersymbol Interference
Consider a binary system, the incoming binary sequence
{bk } consists of symbols 1 and 0, each of duration Tb .
The pulse amplitude modulator modifies this binary
sequence into a new sequence of short pulses
(approximating a unit impulse), whose amplitude ak is
+ 1 if bk = 1
represented in the polar form ak = 
− 1 if bk = 0

{bk } Pulse- {ak } s (t ) xo (t ) x(t )

w(t ) White noise
E.5
Intersymbol Interference
The short pulses are applied to a transmit filter of
impulse response g(t), producing the transmitted signal
s (t ) = ∑ ak g (t − kTb )
k

The signal s (t ) is modified as a result of transmission


through the channel of impulse response h(t ) . In
addition, the channel adds random noise to the signal.

Intersymbol Interference
The noisy signal x(t ) is then passed through a receive
filter of impulse response c(t ) .The resulting output y (t )
is sampled and reconstruced by means of a decision
device.
x(t ) y(t) 1 if y > λ
Receive Decision
filter c(t ) device 0 if y < λ
Sample at ti = iTb
λ
The receiver output is
∑
y (t ) = µ a k p (t − kTb ) + n(t )
k
where µp (t ) = g (t ) ⊗ h(t ) ⊗ c(t ) and µ is a constant.
E.7
Intersymbol Interference
The sampled output is
∑
y (t i ) = µ ak p[(i − k )Tb ] + n(t i )

the residual effect of all other transmitted bits.
(This effect is called intersymbol interference)
E.8
Distortionless Transmission
In a digital transmission system, the frequency
response of the channel h(t ) is specified.

We need to determine the frequency responses of the


transmit g (t ) and receive filter c(t ) so as to reconstruct
the original binary data sequence

Distortionless Transmission

The decoding requires that


1 i = k
p (iTb − kTb ) =  …..(2)
0 i ≠ k
(If this equation is satisfied and S/N is large,
equation (1) becomes y (ti ) = µai )

It can be shown that equation (2) is equivalent to

∑ P( f − n / T ) = T
n = −∞
