Week 4 - Conference 2, Topic 4

Encode a byte of data using any two of the following:

  • unipolar

  • polar NRZ-L

  • polar NRZ-I

  • RZ

  • Manchester

  • Manchester Differential

  • bipolar AMI

    You can use +, 0, and - to represent voltage levels in lieu of drawing a curve. Also please provide the starting binary value and the name of the encoding scheme used.

    ANSWER

     

    Non-Return to Zero Level (NRZ-L) --> This encoding uses + = 0 bit or - = 1 bit

    1 0 1 1 0 1 0
    - + - - + - +

     

     

     

    Return to Zero (RZ) this encoding uses +, -, or 0 (zero), where - = 1 bit and + = 0 bit with 0 for back to zero current

     

    1    0   1    1    0    1    0

    - 0 + 0 - 0 - 0 + 0 - 0 -

     

    NOTE: I found a contradiction in the text book.  The text said that it the when encoding in RZ, the bits were positive and negative like in NRZ-L however in the book they appeared to be opposite (p. 91, last paragraph).  Is the book wrong?
