Delta Modulation and Line Coding Insights

This document discusses issues with delta modulation including granular noise from large step sizes and slope-overload distortion from small step sizes. It proposes adaptive delta modulation as a solution. It also discusses line coding properties like minimal bandwidth, power efficiency, error detection and correction. Specific line coding techniques like polar and bipolar signaling are examined in terms of their power spectral density and bandwidth requirements. Finally, regenerative repeaters are described as reshaping pulses, extracting timing information, and making decisions based on pulse samples.

Issues with Delta Modulation

Large Granular noise.

Small Slope-overload distortion.

Step size is too large relative to local slope


Step size is too small for the staircase approximation to follow
steep slope

Solution Adaptive Delta Modulation


At large slope values is large
At small slope values is small

Transmission BW should be as small as possible.


Power efficiency: For a given BW and specified detection error
rate, the transmitted power should be as small as possible.
Good error detection and correction capability.
Favorable PSD: Should have zero dc component.
Timing content should be adequate.
Transparency: Should correctly transmit independent of bit stream
sequence.

Power Spectral Density (PSD)

Pulse duration = Tb. Consequently, transmission rate, Rb = 1/Tb.


For polar signaling, essential BW is seen to be 2Rb, which is 4 times the
theoretical BW.
Bipolar signaling requires less BW.
Contains no dc component.
