    Study Notes

    Coding Techniques in Digital Communications

    • EBCDIC (Extended Binary Coded Decimal Interchange Code) uses a 4-bit binary code for character representation.
    • Each character in EBCDIC combines a hexadecimal digit for encoded information, structured by four bit positions.
    • A total of 256 unique characters can be represented with EBCDIC due to its 8 bits of information (2^8).

    Baudot Code

    • The Baudot code is a 5-bit binary code designed to differentiate between letters and figures, with one common control sequence to indicate the type of data being sent.
    • Transmitting "letters" is done until the 5-bit sequence "11011" indicates a switch to figures.
    • No lowercase letters are included in the Baudot code, enhancing clarity during transmission.

    Gray Code

    • Gray code is a binary coding scheme where only one bit changes during each transition between decimal values from 0 to 9.
    • It is most effective in telemetry systems with slow-changing data, minimizing the risk of errors during data transmission.
    • Applications of Gray code include environments like temperature sensors (thermocouples), where stable readings are critical.

    Resolution and Quantization

    • Resolution indicates how distinct the quantized levels are in a digitizing system, quantified by the number of bits (n).
    • For a 2-bit system, 4 quantized levels can be achieved, while increasing resolution to 3 bits enables 8 possible values (2^n).
    • A direct relationship exists between the number of quantization levels and accuracy; more bits lead to better resolution.

    Improvements in Signal Processing

    • To enhance the digital signal's quality, one can increase either the number of bits or the sampling rate.
    • Doubling the sample rate while using a fixed number of bits can significantly improve the resulting signal's integrity.
    • An example application features voltage levels represented as quantile intervals, illustrating how voltage values correspond to specific binary representations for quantization.
