Diseño y desarrollo de prácticas de laboratorio para sistemas digitales de comunicación usando los equipos de laboratorio de la Universidad de Cuenca

Abstract

The knowledge and understanding of digital communication systems is fundamentalfor the training of professional in the telecommunications field. Therefore, it is important that it is studied with a balance between theoretical concepts andthe practical implementation.

The Department of Electronics and Telecommunications Engineering in the Facultyof Engineering of the University of Cuenca, has invested in laboratory equipmentto provide students with the opportunity to analyze, in detail, the conceptslearned in the Digital Communications Systems course.

In this project, a guide for laboratory experiments on digital communication systemsis developed, involving the necessary instruments. These guides contain thenecessary steps to complete each task. The most important areas involving analogto digital conversion and modulation begin with an analog signal sampling and the digitalization, codification and even some modulations of binary signals, suchas ASK, FSK and PSK.

The experimental processes are carried out with TIMS Telecommunication InstructionalModelling) electronic equipment, and are verified in both a mathematicaland a physical aspect, visualizing each result with appropriate measuringinstruments. These include scopes and multimeters.
