INTRODUCTION TO MATLAB
The name MATLAB stands for matrix laboratory. MATLAB® is a high-
performance language for technical computing. It integrates computation, visualization,
and programming in an easy-to-use environment where problems and solutions are
expressed in familiar mathematical notation.MATLAB is an interactive system whose
basic data element is an array that does not require dimensioning. This allows you to
solve many technical computing problems, especially those with matrix and vector
formulations, in a fraction of the time it would take to write a program in a scalar
noninteractive language such as C or Fortran.

Typical uses include


Math and computation
Algorithm development
Data acquisition
Modeling, simulation, and prototyping
Data analysis, exploration, and visualization
Scientific and engineering graphics
Application development, including graphical user interface building
To start MATLAB on a Microsoft Windows platform, select the Start -> Programs ->
MATLAB 7.0.1 -> MATLAB 7.0.1, or double-click the MATLAB shortcut icon on your
Windows desktop. The shortcut was automatically created when you installed MATLAB.
If you have trouble starting MATLAB, see troubleshooting information in the Installation
Guide for Windows.
When you start MATLAB, it displays the MATLAB desktop, a set of tools (graphical
user interfaces or GUIs) for managing files, variables, and applications associated with
MATLAB.

The toolbar in the desktop provides easy access to frequently used operations. Position
the cursor over a button for a second or two and a tooltip appears that describes the item.

The Command Window is one of the main tools you use to enter data, run MATLAB
functions and other M-files, and display results.
Use the Help browser to search and view documentation and demonstrations for
MATLAB and all other installed MathWorks products. MATLAB automatically installs
the documentation and demos for a product when

you install that product. The Help browser is an HTML browser integrated with the
MATLAB desktop.

To open the Help browser, click the Help button in the desktop toolbar, type
helpbrowser in the Command Window, or use the Help menu in any tool. There are two
panes:

Working with Matlab:


In MATLAB, a matrix is a rectangular array of numbers. Special meaning is
sometimes attached to 1-by-1 matrices, which are scalars, and to matrices with only one
row or column, which are vectors. MATLAB has other ways of storing both numeric and
nonnumeric data, but in the beginning, it is usually best to think

ANALOG COMMUNICATIONS LAB 3


DEPARTMENT OF ELECTRONICS AND COMMUNICATION ENGINEERING

of everything as a matrix. The operations in MATLAB are designed to be as natural as


possible. Where other programming languages work with numbers one at a time,
MATLAB allows you to work with entire matrices quickly and easily.

To do work in MATLAB, you type commands at the command prompt.


Often these commands will look like standard arithmetic. Or function calls similar
to many other computer languages. By doing this, you can assign sequences to
variables and then manipulate them many ways. You can even write your own
functions and programs using MATLAB's control structures. The following
sections will describe the most commonly used commands on MATLAB and give
simple examples using them.
Expressions:
Like most other programming languages, MATLAB provides mathematical
expressions, but unlike most programming languages, these expressions involve entire
matrices. The building blocks of expressions are
Variables
Numbers
Operators

Variables:
MATLAB does not require any type declarations or dimension statements. When
MATLAB encounters a new variable name, it automatically creates the variable and
allocates the appropriate amount of storage. If the variable already exists, MATLAB
changes its contents and, if necessary, allocates new storage.Variable names consist of a
letter, followed by any number of letters, digits, or underscores. MATLAB uses only the
first 31 characters of a variable name. MATLAB is case sensitive; it distinguishes
between uppercase and lowercase letters. A and a are not the same variable. To view the
matrix assigned to any variable, simply enter the variable name.

You can assign the values to variables by typing in equations. For example, if you type

ANALOG COMMUNICATIONS LAB 4


DEPARTMENT OF ELECTRONICS AND COMMUNICATION ENGINEERING

>>x=5
MATLAB creates a 1-by-1 matrix named xand stores the value 5 in its single element.
The output produced by the MATLAB x =

5
MATLAB uses ans for any expression you don't assign to a variable. For
instance, if you type
>> 5
to MATLAB, MATLAB will return
ans =
5
and assign the value 5 to the variable ans. Thus, ans will always be assigned to the most
recently calculated value you didn't assign to anything else. Numbers:

MATLAB uses conventional decimal notation, with an optional decimal point and
leading plus or minus sign, for numbers. Scientific notation uses the letter e to specify a
power-of-ten scale factor. Imaginary numbers use either i or j as a suffix. Some examples
of legal numbers are
3 -99 0.0001
9.6397238 1.60210e-20 6.02252e23
1i -3.14159j 3e5i
All numbers are stored internally using the long format specified by the IEEE
floating-point standard. Floating-point numbers have a finite precision of roughly 16
significant decimal digits and a finite range of roughly 10-308 to 10+308.

ANALOG COMMUNICATIONS LAB 5


DEPARTMENT OF ELECTRONICS AND COMMUNICATION ENGINEERING

Operators:
Expressions use familiar arithmetic operators and precedence rules.

Symbol Operation
+ Addition
- Subtraction
* Multiplication
/ Division
\ Left division
^ Power
' Complex conjugate transpose
( ) Specify evaluation order

>>x= 1:4will return


x=
1 2 3 4
You can optionally give the colon a step size. For instance,
>>x=8:-1:5 will give
x=
8 7 6 5
and
>> x = 0:0.25: 1.25will return
x=
00.25 0.50.75 1.01.25

The colon is a subtle and powerful operator, and we'll see more uses of it later.

Flow Control:
MATLAB has several flow control constructs:
if, else, and elseif

ANALOG COMMUNICATIONS LAB 6


DEPARTMENT OF ELECTRONICS AND COMMUNICATION ENGINEERING

switch and case


for
while etc… …
if, else, and elseif:
The if statement evaluates a logical expression and executes a group of statements
when the expression is true. The optional elseif and else keywords provide for the
execution of alternate groups of statements. An end keyword, which matches the if,
terminates the last group of statements. The groups of statements are delineated by the
four keywords -- no braces or brackets are involved.

The basic command looks like if a > 0


x=a^2;
end
This command will assign x to be the value of a squared, if a is positive. Again,
note that it has to have an end to indicate which commands are actually part of the if. In
addition, you can define an else clause which is executed if the condition you gave the if
is not true. We could expand our example above to be if a>0

x = a^2;
else
x = -a^2
end
For this version, if we had already set a to be 2, then x would get the
value 4, but if a was -3, x would be -9. Note that we only need one end, which
comes after all the clauses of the if. Finally, we can expand the if to include
several possible conditions. If the first condition isn't satisfied, it looks for the
next, and so on, until it either finds an else, or finds the end. We could change
our example to get
if a>0
x = a^2;
else if a == 0

ANALOG COMMUNICATIONS LAB 7


DEPARTMENT OF ELECTRONICS AND COMMUNICATION ENGINEERING

x = i;
else
x = -a^2
end
For this command, it will see if a is positive, then if a is not positive, it will check if a is
zero, finally it will do the else clause. So, if a positive, x will be a squared, if a is 0, x will
be i, and if a is negative,
then x will be the negative of a squared. Again, note we only have a single end after all
the clauses.
For:
The for loop repeats a group of statements a fixed, predetermined number of times. A
matching end delineates the statements.
. It is functionally very similar to the for function in C. For example, typing for
i= 1:4
end
will cause MATLAB to make the variable i count from 1 to 4, and print its value
for each step. So, you would see
i=1
i=2
i=3
i=4
Every command must have a matching end statement to indicate which
commands should be executed several times. You can have nested for loops.
For example, typing
Form = 1:3
for n= 1:3
x(m,n)=m+n*i;
end
end
will define x to be the matrix
x=

2.0000 + 1.0000i 2.0000 + 9.0000i 2.0000 + 3.0000i
3.0000 + 1.0000i 3.0000 + 2.0000i 3.0000 + 3.0000i
The indentations in the for structure are optional, but they make it easier to figure out
what the commands are doing.
While:
The while command allows you to execute a group of commands until
some condition is no longer true. These commands appear between the while
and its matching end statement. For instance, if we want to keep squaring x until
it is greater than a million,
we would type
while x < 1000000
x = x^2;
end

Scripts and Functions:


MATLAB is a powerful programming language as well as an interactive computational
environment. Files that contain code in the MATLAB language are called M-files. You
create M-files using a text editor, then use them as you would any other MATLAB
function or command.
There are two kinds of M-files: Scripts, which do not accept input arguments or return
output arguments. They operate on data in the workspace. Functions, which can accept
input arguments and return output arguments. Internal variables are local to the function.

Scripts:
When you invoke a script, MATLAB simply executes the commands found in the file.
Scripts can operate on existing data in the workspace, or they can create new data on
which to operate. Although scripts do not return output arguments, any variables that they
create remain in the workspace, to be used in subsequent computations.

ANALOG COMMUNICATIONS LAB 9


DEPARTMENT OF ELECTRONICS AND COMMUNICATION ENGINEERING

Functions:
Functions are M-files that can accept input arguments and return output arguments. The
names of the M-file and of the function should be the same. Functions operate on
variables within their own workspace, separate from the workspace you access at the
MATLAB command prompt.

Procedure:

1. Open the MATLAB® software by double clicking its icon .

2. MATLAB® logo will appear and after few moments Command Prompt will appear.

3. Go to the File Menu and select a New M- file. (File ?New?M-file) or in the left hand
corner a blank white paper icon will be there. Click it once.

ANALOG COMMUNICATIONS LAB 10


DEPARTMENT OF ELECTRONICS AND COMMUNICATION ENGINEERING

4. A blank M- file will appear with a title ‘untitled’

ANALOG COMMUNICATIONS LAB 11


DEPARTMENT OF ELECTRONICS AND COMMUNICATION ENGINEERING

5. Now start typing your program. After completing, save the M- file with appropriate
name. Toexecute the program Press F5 or go to Debug Menu and select Run.

6. After execution output will appear in the Command window .If there is an error then
with an
alarm, type of error will appear in red color.
7. Rectify the error if any and go to Debug Menu and select Run.

1. AMPLITUDE MODULATION AND DEMODULATION


Aim:
A. To generate the amplitude modulated signal(AM wave) by using given message
signal and carrier signals in MATLAB software
B. To demodule the AM wave using envelope detector principle
Hardware and software requirements:
Personal computer(PC)
MATLAB Software 7.0.4
Theory:
In amplitude modulation, the amplitude of the carrier voltage varies in accordance
with the instantaneous value of modulating voltage. Let the modulating voltage be
given by expression, Vm = Vmcoswmt

Where wm is angular frequency of the signal &Vm is the amplitude. Let the
carriervoltage be given by expression,
Vc = Vccoswct
On Amplitude Modulation, The instantaneous value of modulated carrier voltage is given
by,
V = V(t) coswct V(t)=Vc
+ kaVmcoswmt
V=Vc[1+ ma coswm t] coswct
Where ma is modulation index and the modulation index is defined as the ratio of
maximum amplitude of modulating signal to maximum amplitude of carrier signal.
ma= Vm / Vc
The demodulation circuit is used to recover the message signal from the incoming
AM wave at the receiver. An envelope detector is a simple and yet highly effective
device that is well suited for the demodulation of AM wave, for which the percentage
modulation is less than 100%.Ideally, an envelop detector produces an output signal that
follows the envelop of the input signal wave form

2. AM-DSBSC MODULATION AND DEMODULATION


Aim:
A. To generate the AM-DSBSC modulated signal(DSBSC wave) by using given
message signal and carrier signals in MATLAB software
B. To demodule the DSBSC wave using synchronous detector
Hardware and software requirements:
Personal computer(PC)
MATLAB Software 7.0.4
Theory:
The amplitude-modulated signal is simple to produce but has two practical
drawbacks inapplication to many real communications systems: the bandwidth of the AM
signal is twice that of the modulating signal and most of the power is transmitted in the
carrier, not in the information bearing sidebands. To overcome these problems with AM,
versions on AM have been developed. These other versions of the AM are used in
applications were bandwidth must be conserved or power used more effectively.

If the carrier could somehow be removed or reduced, the transmitted signal would
consistof two information-bearing sidebands, and the total transmitted power would be
information. When the carrier is reduced, this is called as double sideband
suppressedcarrier AM or DSB-SC. Instead of two third of the power in the carrier,
nearly all being the available power is used in sidebands.

3. FREQUENCY MODULATION AND DEMODULATION

Aim:
A. To generate frequency modulated signal and observe the characteristics of FM wave
using MATLAB software.
B. To demodulate a Frequency Modulated signal usingMATLAB software

Hardware and software requirements:


Personal computer(PC)
MATLAB Software 7.0.4

Theory:
Frequency modulation consists in varying the frequency of the carrier voltage
inaccordance with the instantaneous value of the modulating voltage.Thus the amplitude
ofthe carrier does not change due to frequency modulation. Let the modulating voltage
begiven by expression:
Vm=Vmcoswmt.
Where wmis angular frequency of the signal &Vmis the amplitude. Let the carriervoltage
be given by expression,

On frequency modulation, the instantaneous value of modulated carrier voltage is given


by,

Hence the frequency modulated carrier voltage is given by,

The modulation index is defined as the ratio of frequency deviation to frequency of


modulating signal mf=d/fm where deviation d=(fmax-fmin)/2.

INTRODUCTION TO SIMULINK
Introduction:
Simulink is a software package that enables you to model, simulate, and analyze
systems whose outputs change over time. Such systems are often referred to as dynamic
systems. Simulink can be used to explore the behavior of a wide range of real-world
dynamic systems, including electrical circuits, shock absorbers, braking systems, and
many other electrical, mechanical, and thermodynamic systems. This section explains
how Simulink works.
Simulating a dynamic system is a two-step process with Simulink. First, a user
creates a block diagram, using the Simulink model editor, that graphically depicts time-
dependent mathematical relationships among the system's inputs, states, and outputs. The
user then commands Simulink to simulate the system represented by the model from a
specified start time to a specified stop time.
In general, block and lines can be used to describe many "models of
computations." One example would be a flow chart. A flow chart consists of blocks and
lines, but one cannot describe general dynamic systems using flow chart semantics.

The term "time-based block diagram" is used to distinguish block diagrams that
describe dynamic systems from that of other forms of block diagrams. In Simulink, we
use the term block diagram (or model) to refer to a time-based block diagram unless the
context requires explicit distinction.
Simulink block diagrams define time-based relationships between signals and
state variables. The solution of a block diagram is obtained by evaluating these
relationships over time, where time starts at a user specified "start time" and ends at a
user specified "stop time." Each evaluation of these relationships is referred to as a time
step. Signals represent quantities that change over time and are defined for all points in
time between the block diagram's start and stop time. The relationships between signals
and state variables are defined by a set of equations represented by blocks. Each block
consists of a set of equations (block methods). These equations define a relationship
between the input signals,

output signals and the state variables. Inherent in the definition of a equation is the notion
of parameters, which are the coefficients found within the equation.

Starting Simulink
To start Simulink, you must first start MATLAB. You can then start
Simulink in two ways:

 Click the Simulink icon on the MATLAB toolbar.


 Enter the simulink command at the MATLAB prompt.

On Microsoft Windows platforms, starting Simulink displays the Simulink


Library Browser.

ANALOG COMMUNICATIONS LAB 27


DEPARTMENT OF ELECTRONICS AND COMMUNICATION ENGINEERING

SIMULINK EDITOR:
When you open a Simulink model or library, Simulink displays the model or
library in an instance of the Simulink Editor.

Editor Components:
The Simulink Editor includes the following components.
Menu Bar

The Simulink menu bar contains commands for creating, editing, viewing,
printing, and simulating models. The menu commands apply to the model displayed in
the editor. See Creating a Model and Running Simulations for more information.

Toolbar

The toolbar allows you to execute Simulink's most frequently used Simulink
commands with a click of a mouse button. For example, to open a Simulink model, click
the open folder icon on the toolbar. Letting the mouse cursor hover over a toolbar button
or control causes a tooltip to appear. The tooltip describes the purpose of the button or
control. You can hide the toolbar by clearing the Toolbar option on the Simulink View
menu.

Canvas

The canvas displays the model's block diagram. The canvas allows you to edit the
block diagram. You can use your system's mouse and keyboard to create and connect
blocks, selelect and move blocks, edit block labels, display block dialog boxes, and so on.
See Working with Blocks for more information.
Context Menus

Simulink displays a context-sensitive menu when you click the right mouse
button over the canvas. The contents of the menu depend on whether a block is selected.
If a block is selected, the menu displays commands that apply only to the selected block.
If no block is selected, the menu displays commands that apply to a model or library as a
whole.
Status Bar

The status bar appears only in the Windows version of the Simulink Editor. When
a simulation is running, the status bar displays the status of the simulation, including the
current simulation time and the name of the current solver. You can display or hide the
status bar by selecting or clearing the Status Bar option on the Simulink View menu.

Building a Model
This example shows you how to build a model using many of the model-building
commands and actions you will use to build your own models.
The model integrates a sine wave and displays the result along with the sine wave.
The block diagram of the model looks like this.

ANALOG COMMUNICATIONS LAB 29


DEPARTMENT OF ELECTRONICS AND COMMUNICATION ENGINEERING

To create a new model , click the New Model button on the Library Browser's
toolbar.

Simulink opens a new model window.

To create this model, you need to copy blocks into the model from the following
Simulink block libraries:
 Sources library (the Sine Wave block)

 Sinks library (the Scope block)

 Continuous library (the Integrator block)

 Signal Routing library (the Mux block)
To copy the Sine Wave block from the Library Browser, first expand the Library
Browser tree to display the blocks in the Sources library. Do this by clicking the

ANALOG COMMUNICATIONS LAB 30


DEPARTMENT OF ELECTRONICS AND COMMUNICATION ENGINEERING

Sources node to display the Sources library blocks. Finally, click the Sine Wave node to
select the Sine Wave block.
Here is how the Library Browser should look after you have done this

Now drag a copy of the Sine Wave block from the browser and drop it in the model
window.

Copy the rest of the blocks in a similar manner from their respective libraries into
the model window. You can move a block from one place in the model window to
another by dragging the block. You can move a block a short distance by selecting the
block, then pressing the arrow keys.
With all the blocks copied into the model window, the model should look
something like this.

ANALOG COMMUNICATIONS LAB 31


DEPARTMENT OF ELECTRONICS AND COMMUNICATION ENGINEERING

If you examine the blocks, you see an angle bracket on the right of the Sine Wave
block and two on the left of the Mux block. The > symbol pointing out of a block is an
output port; if the symbol points to a block, it is an input port. A signal travels out of an
output port and into an input port of another block through a connecting line. When the
blocks are connected, the port symbols disappear.

Now it's time to connect the blocks. Connect the Sine Wave block to the top input
port of the Mux block. Position the pointer over the output port on the right side of the
Sine Wave block. Notice that the cursor shape changes to crosshairs.

Hold down the mouse button and move the cursor to the top input port of the Mux
block.
Notice that the line is dashed while the mouse button is down and that the cursor shape
changes to double-lined crosshairs as it approaches the Mux block.

ANALOG COMMUNICATIONS LAB 32


DEPARTMENT OF ELECTRONICS AND COMMUNICATION ENGINEERING

Now release the mouse button. The blocks are connected. You can also connect
the line to the block by releasing the mouse button while the pointer is over the block. If
you do, the line is connected to the input port closest to the cursor's position.

If you look again at the model at the beginning of this section, you'll notice that
most of the lines connect output ports of blocks to input ports of other blocks. However,
one line connects a line to the input port of another block. This line, called a branch line,
connects the Sine Wave output to the Integrator block, and carries the same signal that
passes from the Sine Wave block to the Mux block.
Drawing a branch line is slightly different from drawing the line you just drew. To weld a
connection to an existing line, follow these steps:
1. First, position the pointer on the line between the Sine Wave and the Mux block.

2. Press and hold down the Ctrl key (or click the right mouse button).Press the
mouse button, then drag the pointer to the Integrator block's input port or over the
Integrator block itself.

ANALOG COMMUNICATIONS LAB 33


DEPARTMENT OF ELECTRONICS AND COMMUNICATION ENGINEERING

3. Release the mouse button. Simulink draws a line between the starting point and the
Integrator block's input port.

Finish making block connections. When you're done, your model should look something like this.

Controlling Execution of a Simulation


The Simulink graphical interface includes menu commands and toolbar buttons that
enable you to start, stop, and pause a simulation.
Starting a Simulation
To start execution of a model, select Start from the model editor's Simulation menu or
click the Start button on the model's toolbar.

ANALOG COMMUNICATIONS LAB 34


DEPARTMENT OF ELECTRONICS AND COMMUNICATION ENGINEERING

You can also use the keyboard shortcut, Ctrl+T, to start the simulation.
Note: A common mistake that new Simulink users make is to start a simulation while the
Simulink block library is the active window. Make sure your model window is the active window
before starting a simulation.
Simulink starts executing the model at the start time specified on the Configuration
Parameters dialog box. Execution continues until the simulation reaches the final time step
specified on the Configuration Parameters dialog box, an error occurs, or you pause or terminate
the simulation.
While the simulation is running, a progress bar at the bottom of the model window shows
how far the simulation has progressed. A Stop command replaces the Start command on the
Simulation menu. A Pause command appears on the menu and replaces the Start button on the
model toolbar.

Your computer beeps to signal the completion of the simulation.


Ending a Simulink Session

4. Amplitude Modulation & Demodulation


Aim:
To generate amplitude modulated wave using simulink and demodulate the
modulated wave.
Software Required:
MATLAB 7.0.4
Simulink
Theory:
Amplitude Modulation is defined as a process in which the amplitude of the
carrier wave c(t) is varied linearly with the instantaneous amplitude of the message signal
m(t).The standard form of an amplitude modulated (AM) wave is defined by

 
S T AC 1  K A MT COS2πF C T 

Where K A is a constant called the amplitude sensitivity of the modulator.


Basically amplitude modulated signal is generated by product
modulator.The inputs to the product modulator are message signal and carrier signal.
Demodulation is the process of extracting the baseband message signal from the carrier
so that it may be processed at the receiver. For that purpose various methods are used like
diode detector method, product detector method, filter detector etc. The same has been
implemented on simulink model. Low pass filter has been implemented to extract the
carrier from the modulated signal. Low pass filter (LPF), filters out the high frequency
component and allows the low frequency component to pass. Since the carrier signal is of
relatively much higher frequency than that of message signal, carrier signal is attenuated
while the message signal is received at the receiver.

5. DSB-SC MODULATION AND DEMODULATION


Aim:
To generate DSB-SC Modulated wave using simulink and demodulate the modulated
signal
Software Required:
MATLAB 7.0.4
SIMULINK
Theory:
In the double-sideband suppressed-carrier transmission (DSB-SC) modulation, unlike
AM, the wave carrier is not transmitted; thus, a great percentage of power that is
dedicated to it is distributed between the sidebands, which imply an increase of the cover
in DSB-SC, compared to AM, for the same power used. The DSB-SC modulator output
as follows

The coherent DSB-SC requires a synchronized local oscillator and works on


following
principle.

A low pass filter filters out the message signal from above.

device that is well suited for the demodulation of AM wave, for which the percentage modulation
is less than 100%.Ideally, an envelop detector produces an

Capacitor 0.1µF 1
CRO 20MHz 1
AM/FM Generator 0.1MHz-110MHz 1
Regulated Power Supply 0-30V, 1A 1

Theory:
The AM signal is applied to a basic half-wave rectifier circuit consisting of diode and
resistor. The diode conducts when the positive half of the AM signals occur. During the negative
half cycles, the diode is reverse-biased and no current flows through it. As a result, the voltage
across resistor is a series of positive pulses whose amplitude varies with the modulating signal.
To recover the original modulating signal a capacitor is connected across resistor. Its value is
critical to good performance. The result is that the carrier is absent there by leaving the original
modulating signal.

Theory:
An SSB signal is produced by passing the DSB signal through a highly selective band
pass filter. This filter selects either the upper or the lower sideband. Hence transmission
bandwidth can be cut by half if one sideband is entirely suppressed. This leads to single-sideband
modulation (SSB). In SSB modulation bandwidth saving is accompanied by a considerable
increase in equipment complexity.

1. PULSE WIDTH MODULATION


Aim:
To write a MATLAB program to simulate the PWM wavefor the given message
signal
Hardware and software requirements:
Personal computer(PC)
MATLAB Software 7.0.4

Theory:
Pulse width modulation (PWM) encodes a signal into periodic pulses of equal
magnitude but varying width. The width of a pulse at a given point in time is proportional
to the amplitude of the message signal at that time. For example, the large value of the
message yields a narrow pulse.
To implement the PWM, the message signal is compared with the sawtooth
carrier. When the message signal is greater than the carrier, the comparator output
becomes highand vice versa; the heights and lows can be represented by +1 or-1
respectively.The comparator output will be the pulse width modulated signal.

2. PHASE LOCKED LOOP


Aim:
To write the MATLAB program to simulate the operation of PLL circuit.

Hardware and software requirements:


Personal computer(PC)
MATLAB Software 7.0.4

Theory:
Phase-locked loop (PLL) is a feedback loop which locks two waveforms with same
frequency but shifted in phase. The fundamental use of this loop is in comparing
frequencies of two waveforms and then adjusting the frequency of the waveform in the
loop to equal the input waveform frequency. A block diagram of the PLL is shown in
Figure 1. The heart of the PLL is a phase comparator which along with a voltage
controlled oscillator (VCO), a filter and an amplifier forms the loop.

Figure 1: Basic Phase-Locked Loop

If the two frequencies are different the output of the phase comparator varies and changes
the input to the VCO to make its output frequency equal to the input waveform
frequency. The locking of the two frequencies is a nonlinear process but linear
approximation can be used to analyse PLL dynamics. In getting the PLL to lock the
proper selection of the filter is essential and it needs some attention. If the filter design is
understood from control theory point-of-view then

ANALOG COMMUNICATIONS LAB 82

the design becomes quite simple. In this short note we will discuss only the fundamentals
of the PLL and how you can use nonlinear simulation and linearised approximation to get
a better understanding of the PLL.

VCO. The VCO frequency is varied by the dc output voltage from a low pass filter. It is the
output of the phase detector that the low pass filter uses to produce dc control voltage. This dc
control voltage is called the error signal and is also the feedback in this circuit and will control the
VCO.

frequency. When input signal is locked with VCO output in forward direction then note
down the value of input signal frequency (fC1). Again increase the input
signal frequency and observe the frequency at which the PLL becomes unlocked, note
down the value of input signal frequency (fL2).
4. Again the frequency of input is reduced in backward direction and note down the
frequency of the input signal (fc2) at which input signal is locked with VCO output.

CRO 0-20MHz 1
Function generator 0-1MHz 1

Regulated Power Supply 0-30V, 1A 1

Theory:

The frequency divider is inserted between the VCO and the phase comparator of PLL. Since the
output of the divider is locked to the input frequency fin, the VCO is actually running at a
multiple of the input frequency . The desired amount of multiplication can be obtained by
selecting a proper divide– by – N network ,where N is an integer. To obtain the output frequency
fOUT=5fIN, a divide – by – N = 5 network is needed. One must determine the input frequency
range and then adjust the free running fOUT of the VCO by means of R1 (20k pot) and C1
(10µF) so that the output frequency of the divider is midway within the predetermined input
frequency range. The output of the VCO now

ANALOG COMMUNICATIONS LAB 98


DEPARTMENT OF ELECTRONICS AND COMMUNICATION ENGINEERING

should be 5fIN. The output of the VCO now should be adjusted from 1.5 KHz to 15 KHz by
varying potentiometer R1 .this means that the input frequency fin range has to be with in 300Hz to
3KHz. In addition, the input wave form may be applied to inputs pin2 or pin3. Input – output
waveforms forms for fOUT= 5fIN. A small capacitor typically 1000pf is connected between pin7
and pin8 to eliminate possible oscillations. Also, capacitor C2 should be large enough to stabilize
the VCO frequency.

4. Set the input signal (say 2 Vp-p, 1KHz square wave form ) using function
generator.
5. Vary the frequency by adjusting the 20K Potentiometer till the PLL(IC565)is
locked.
6. Measure (frequency counter) the frequency of the output signal. It must be 5 times
the input signal frequency.

only if you choose sample-based as the Sine type of the block.

ANALOG COMMUNICATIONS LAB 110


DEPARTMENT OF ELECTRONICS AND COMMUNICATION ENGINEERING

Sample time

The sample period. The default is 0. If the sine type is sample-based, the sample time
must be greater than 0. See Specifying Sample Time in the online documentation for
more information.

Interpret vector parameters as 1-D

If selected, column or row matrix values for the Sine Wave block's numeric
parameters result in a vector output signal; otherwise, the block outputs a signal of the
same dimensionality as the parameters. If this option is not selected, the block always
outputs a signal of the same dimensionality as the block's numeric parameters.

Signal generator:

The Signal Generator block can produce one of three different waveforms: sine
wave, square wave, and sawtooth wave. The signal parameters can be expressed in Hertz
(the default) or radians per second. This figure shows each signal displayed on a Scope
using default parameter values.

Symbol

The block's Amplitude and Frequency parameters determine the amplitude and
frequency of the output signal. The parameters must be of the same dimensions after
scalar expansion.

Wave form

The wave form: a sine wave, square wave, or sawtooth wave. The default is a sine
wave. This parameter cannot be changed while a simulation is running.

Time

Specifies whether to use simulation time as the source of values for the waveform's
time variable or an external signal. If you specify an external time source, the block
displays an input port for the time source.

Amplitude

The signal amplitude. The default is 1.

Frequency

The signal frequency. The default is 1.

Units

The signal units: Hertz or radians/sec. The default is Hertz.

Interpret vector parameters as 1-D

If selected, column or row matrix values for the Amplitude and Frequency parameters
result in a vector output signal.

Constant

The Constant block generates a real or complex constant value. The block generates
scalar (1x1 2-D array), vector (1-D array), or matrix (2-D array) output, depending on the
dimensionality of the Constant value parameter and the setting of the Interpret vector
parameters as 1-D parameter.

Symbol

The output of the block has the same dimensions and elements as the Constant value
parameter. If you specify a vector for this parameter, and you want the block to interpret
it as a vector (i.e., a 1-D array), select the Interpret vector parameters as 1-D parameter;
otherwise, the block treats the Constant value parameter as a matrix (i.e., a 2-D array).

ANALOG COMMUNICATIONS LAB 113


DEPARTMENT OF ELECTRONICS AND COMMUNICATION ENGINEERING

Constant value

Specify the constant value output by the block. You can enter any MATLAB
expression in this field, including the Boolean keywords, true or false, that evaluates to a
matrix value. The Constant value parameter is converted from its data type to the
specified output data type offline using round-to-nearest and saturation.

Interpret vector parameters as 1-D

If you select this check box, the Constant block outputs a vector of length N if the
Constant value parameter evaluates to an N-element row or column vector, i.e., a matrix
of dimension 1xN or Nx1.

Sample time

Specify the interval between times that the Constant block's output can change during
simulation (e.g., as a result of tuning its Constant value parameter). The default sample
time is inf, i.e., the block's output can never change. This setting speeds simulation and
generated code by avoiding the need to recompute the block's output. See Specifying
Sample Time in the online documentation for more information.

Scope

The Scope block displays its input with respect to simulation time. The Scope block can
have multiple axes (one per port); all axes have a common time range with independent
y-axes. The Scope allows you to adjust the amount of time and the range of input values
displayed. You can move and resize the Scope window and you can modify the Scope's
parameter values during the simulation.

Symbol

ANALOG COMMUNICATIONS LAB 114


DEPARTMENT OF ELECTRONICS AND COMMUNICATION ENGINEERING

When you start a simulation, Simulink does not open Scope windows, although it does
write data to connected Scopes. As a result, if you open a Scope after a simulation, the
Scope's input signal or signals will be displayed.

If the signal is continuous, the Scope produces a point-to-point plot. If the signal is
discrete, the Scope produces a stair-step plot.

The Scope provides toolbar buttons that enable you to zoom in on displayed data, display
all the data input to the Scope, preserve axis settings from one simulation to the next,
limit data displayed, and save data to the workspace. The toolbar buttons are labeled in
this figure, which shows the Scope window as it appears when you open a Scope block.

ANALOG COMMUNICATIONS LAB 115


DEPARTMENT OF ELECTRONICS AND COMMUNICATION ENGINEERING

Number of axes

Set the number of y-axes in this data field. With the exception of the floating scope,
there is no limit to the number of axes the Scope block can contain. All axes share the
same time base (x-axis), but have independent y-axes. Note that the number of axes is
equal to the number of input ports.

Time range

Change the x-axis limits by entering a number or auto in the Time range field.
Entering a number of seconds causes each screen to display the amount of data that
corresponds to that number of seconds. Enter auto to set the x-axis to the duration of the
simulation. Do not enter variable names in these fields.

Sum (Add or subtract)

The Sum block performs addition or subtraction on its inputs. This block can add or
subtract scalar, vector, or matrix inputs. It can also collapse the elements of a single input
vector.

Symbol
ANALOG COMMUNICATIONS LAB 116
DEPARTMENT OF ELECTRONICS AND COMMUNICATION ENGINEERING

The Sum block first converts the input data type(s) to the output data type using the
specified rounding and overflow modes, and then performs the specified operations.

List of signs

Enter as many plus (+) and minus (-) characters as there are inputs. Addition is the
default operation, so if you only want to add the inputs, enter the number of input ports.
For a single vector input, "+" or "-" will collapse the vector using the specified operation.

You can manipulate the positions of the input ports on the block by inserting spacers
(|) between the signs in the List of signs parameter. For example, "++|--" creates an extra
space between the second and third input ports.

Sample time (-1 for inherited)

Specify the time interval between samples. To inherit the sample time, set this
parameter to -1. See Specifying Sample Time in the online documentation for more
information.

Product(multiply or divide)

The Product block performs multiplication or division of its inputs.

Symbol

This block produces outputs using either element-wise or matrix multiplication,


depending on the value of the Multiplication parameter. You specify the operations with
the Number of inputs parameter. Multiply(*) and divide(/) characters indicate the
operations to be performed on the inputs.
