Title: FM Demodulation using Phase Locked Loop PLL
1FM Demodulation using Phase Locked Loop (PLL)
where
- The VCO generates a sinusoid of a fixed frequency
fc in the absence of an input control voltage.
When there is a signal at the input of the VCO
the instantaneous frequency of the VCO is
2FM Demodulation using PLL
where kv is the deviation constant. The VCO
output can be written as
where
- The phase compensator block is basically a
multiplier and a filter that rejects signal
components centered at 2fc. Hence its output may
be expressed as
3FM Demodulation using PLL
where the difference
constitutes the phase error. The signal
e(t) is the input to the loop filter.
- Lets assume that the PLL is in lock so that the
phase error is small. Then, we have
under this condition we may deal with the
linearized model of PLL

Taking FT, we have
5FM Demodulation using PLL
Suppose that we design G(f) such that
in the frequency band of the message
signal. Then, we have
6Sampling
- Theorem Let the signal x(t) be bandlimited with
bandwidth W i.e., let X(f)0 for . Let
x(t) be sampled at multiples of some basic
sampling intervals Ts, where to
yield - the sequence . Then it
is possible to reconstruct the original signal
x(t) from the sampled values by the
reconstruction formula
where is any arbitrary number that satisfies
in the special case where we have
7Sampling
- PROOF Let denote the result of sampling
the original signal by impulses at nTs time
instants. Then, we have
Taking FT, we have
8Sampling
- If , then the replicated spectrum
of x(t) overlaps and the reconstruction of the
original signal is not possible. This is called
aliasing.
- To obtain the original signal one obvious choice
is to pass the sampled signal through a LFP.
9Sampling
with this choice, we have
taking IFT, we have
10Practical Sampling
- Switched/Natural Sampling In switched sampling,
the bandlimited signal is sampled by closing a
switch at regular intervals and keeping it close
for some fixed duration.
and the sampled signal xs(t) can be written as
taking FT, we have
11Natural Sampling
12Zero-Order-Hold Sampling
- Zero-Order-Hold Flat top or zero-order-hold
(ZOH) sampling is done by sampling at nTs and
holding the result until the time of the next
sample i.e., (n1)Ts. Zero-order-hold sampling
can be considered as a cascade of impulse
sampling with a zero-order-hold filter i.e. a
filter with a impulse response of
taking FT, we have
output of the impulse sampler in frequency domain
is
13Zero-Order-Hold Sampling
passing this through ZOH filter we have
to obtain the original signal back, a filter with
the following frequency response should be used
- If sampling is quite high, that is, fs gtgt 2W,
then for all fltW, Tsf ltlt1 and sinc(Tsf) is
approximately 1. In this case an ideal filter can
reconstruct the original signal with good
accuracy.
