Raised Cosine Spectrum

The document discusses the raised cosine spectrum, which is used to overcome practical difficulties with increasing filter bandwidth. The raised cosine spectrum consists of a flat amplitude portion and a roll-off portion with a sinusoidal form. It is specified by a roll off factor α, which indicates excess bandwidth over the ideal Nyquist channel. Higher α values result in a more gradual cutoff compared to the ideal case, making it easier to implement in practice.

The frequency characteristic consists of a flat
amplitude portion and a roll-off portion that has a
sinusoidal form. The pulse spectrum p(f) is specified
in terms of a roll off factor  as follows:

The frequency parameter f1 and bandwidth W are related
by

where  is the rolloff factor. It indicates the excess


bandwidth over the ideal solution (Nyquist channel)
where W=1/2Tb.

The transmission bandwidth is (1   )W

The frequency response of  at 0, 0.5 and 1 are shown in
graph below. We observed that  at 1 and 0.5, the
function P(f) cutoff gradually as compared with the ideal
Nyquist channel and is therefore easier to implement in
practice.

The time response p(t) is obtained as

cos(2Wt )
p(t)  (sin c(2Wt))(1  16 2W 2 t)

The function p(t) consists of two parts. The first part is a


sinc function that is exactly as Nyquist condition but the
second part is depended on . The tails is reduced if  is
approaching 1. Thus, it is insensitive to sampling time
errors.
