Format Analog Signals
To transform an analog waveform into a form that is compatible
with a digital communication, the following steps are taken:
Sampling
Quantization and encoding
Baseband transmission

Quantization and Encoding
Quantization: Sampled values are quantized to values of a
finite set.
Pulse code modulation (PCM): Encoding the quantized
signals into a digital word.
Each quantized sample is digitally encoded into an bits codeword
where =log2L and L in the number of quantization level
The analog information can be recovered from the quantized samples,
but not precisely
the fidelity increases as the number of quantization level increases.
This causes bandwidth expansion for real-time application

2.8 Baseband Transmission
To transmit information through physical channels, PCM
sequences (code words) are transformed to pulses
(waveforms).
Each waveform carries a symbol from a set of size M.
Each transmit symbol represents k=log2M bits.

M-ary Pulse Modulation
M-ary pulse modulations category
M-ary pulse-amplitude modulation (PAM)
M-ary pulse-position modulation (PPM)
M-ary pulse-duration modulation (PDM)
M-ary PAM is a multi-level signaling where each symbol takes one of
the M allowable amplitude levels, each representing k=log2M bits of
PCM words

M-ary Pulse Modulation (contd)
For a given data rate,
M-ary PAM requires less bandwidth
For a given pulse power,
Binary PCM is easier to detect
