Why FSK is high immunity than ASK?

Why FSK is high immunity than ASK?

FSK is just a modulation scheme and is not necessarily more immune to noise than ASK. However, FSK can behave like a differential signal and, thus, FSK demodulators can exploit this and thus become more robust to noise. However if and only if that noise manipulates your positive and negative deviated frequency.

What is FSK rate?

The FSK rate is the rate at which the output frequency “shifts” between the carrier frequency and the hop frequency using the internal FSK source. FSK rate (internal source): 125 µHz (33500 Series) or 250 µHz (33600 Series) up to 1 MHz, default 10 Hz. The FSK rate is ignored when the external FSK source is selected.

What are limitations of FSK?

Drawbacks or disadvantages of FSK Following are the disadvantages of FSK: ➨It uses larger bandwidth compare to other modulation techniques such as ASK and PSK. Hence it is not bandwidth efficient. ➨The BER (Bit Error Rate) performance in AWGN channel is worse compare to PSK modulation.

Is FSK bandwidth efficient?

FSK modems are inefficient in their use of bandwidth, with the result that the maximum data rate over normal telephone lines is 1800 bps. Typically, for rates over 1200 bps, other modulation schemes are used.

Is FSK better than PSK?

PSK modulation techniques are in general better than FSK modulations in terms of bandwidth requirements or in other words PSK modulation schemes offer better bits/s/hz efficiency. However FSK modulation schemes are more power efficient i,e, offers better BER performance at a given S/N (signal-to-noise ratio).

What is the probability of error of FSK?

The probability of error for coherent FSK is Pϵ = erfc√ E η . Pϵ = erfc√ Eb η . In terms of average power required, the performance of FSK is therefore the same as for ASK. However, in terms of peak power, FSK has a 3dB advantage over ASK.

What does FSK mean?

Frequency-shift keying (FSK) is commonly used over telephone lines for caller ID (displaying callers’ numbers) and remote metering applications.

How is FSK bandwidth calculated?

A rectangular-pulse polar baseband signal is used to modulate an RF carrier in FSK. If the baseband signal has a data rate of 200 kbit/sec and the two RF frequencies are 150 kHz apart, determine the bandwidth. 2f + 2B = 150 kHz + 200 kHz = 350 kHz.

What is FSK advantages and disadvantages?

Extensively used in low-speed modems having bit rates below around 1200 bits/sec. This increases the channel bandwidth required to transmit the FSK signal type. It uses larger bandwidth compared to other modulation techniques like ASK and PSK. Hence it is not bandwidth efficient.

Why is the FSK less sensitive than the ASK to the signal amplitude variations?

FSK has several advantages over ASK due to the fact that the carrier has a constant amplitude. hence, its immunity to non-linearities, immunity to rapid fading, immunity to adjacent channel interference, and the ability to work in small SNR environments due to the effect of exchanging SNR for bandwidth.

Why we are not preferred ASK over PSK and FSK?

We generally don’t prefer ASK because it is much prone to noise than FSK and PSK. But, still ASK had better spectral efficiency compared to FSK and simpler demodulation structure compared to FSK. Both PSK and FSK receivers usually employ correlators, which consist of an analog multiplier, followed by am integrator.
