Pro

Con
Major disadvantage is that telephone lines are very susceptible to
variations in transmission quality that can affect amplitude
Susceptible to sudden gain changes
Inefficient modulation technique for data
Applications
On voice-grade lines, used up to 1200 bps
Used to transmit digital data over optical fiber
Morse code
Laser transmitters
Example
We have an available bandwidth of 100 kHz which spans from 200 to
300 kHz. What are the carrier frequency and the bit rate if we
modulated our data by using ASK with r = 1?
Solution
The middle of the bandwidth is located at 250 kHz. This means that
our carrier frequency can be at fc = 250 kHz. We can use the formula
for bandwidth to find the bit rate (with n= 1 and r = 1).

Frequency Shift Keying
One frequency encodes a 0 while another frequency encodes a 1
(a form of frequency modulation)
Represent each logical value with another frequency (like FM)
FSK Bandwidth
Limiting factor: Physical capabilities of the carrier
Not susceptible to noise as much as ASK
Applications
On voice-grade lines, used up to 1200bps
Used for high-frequency (3 to 30 MHz) radio transmission
used at higher frequencies on LANs that use coaxial cable

Example
We have an available bandwidth of 100 kHz which spans from
200 to 300 kHz. What should be the carrier frequency and the
bit rate if we modulated our data by using FSK with r= 1?
Solution
This problem is similar to Example 5.3, but we are modulating
by using FSK. The midpoint of the band is at 250 kHz. We
choose 2Δf to be 50 kHz; this means
B = (1+r) Rbaud+ 2Δf = 100KHz
=>2xR
b

=50kHz
