Course objectives:

This course will enable students to

• Understand and analyse concepts of Analog Modulation schemes viz; AM, FM., Low pass
sampling and Quantization as a random process.

• Understand and analyse concepts digitization of signals viz; sampling, quantizing and encoding.

• Evolve the concept of SNR in the presence of channel induced noise and study Demodulation of
analog modulated signals.

• Evolve the concept of quantization noise for sampled and encoded signals and study the concepts
of reconstruction from these samples at a receiver.
