Frequency band for wireless transmission

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion focuses on designing a frequency division multiplexing (FDM) system using a frequency band from 76 MHz to 86 MHz. Each channel is specified to be 2 MHz wide with 2 MHz guard bands, although guard bands are not required at the lower and upper ends of the band. The total number of channels that can fit within this frequency band is determined by the available bandwidth and the specified channel and guard band widths. The solution includes a diagram indicating the start and end of each channel along with their center frequencies.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of frequency division multiplexing (FDM)
  • Knowledge of MHz frequency bands
  • Basic principles of channel width and guard bands
  • Ability to interpret and create frequency diagrams
NEXT STEPS
  • Research the principles of frequency division multiplexing (FDM)
  • Learn how to calculate channel capacity in MHz frequency bands
  • Explore the impact of guard bands on channel design
  • Study practical applications of FDM in wireless communication systems
USEFUL FOR

Students and professionals in telecommunications, wireless communication engineers, and anyone involved in designing frequency division multiplexing systems.

Homework Statement



A frequency band from 76 MHz to 86 MHz is available for wireless transmission. Design
a frequency division multiplexing system with 2 MHz wide channels and 2 MHz guard bands
(assume that guard bands aren’t necessary at the lower and upper ends of the band). Indicate
where each channel begins and ends, as well as its centre frequency. How many channels fit
inside the given frequency band?

Homework Equations



I think just logic of what the question is asking is enough

The Attempt at a Solution



See attachment for a diagram I made. I was just unsure if I was doing this correctly or not. If anyone could confirm that would be great.

Looks right to me.
