Power Spectrum of Discrete PAM signals

Senthilkumar ● March 28, 2012 ● Coded in Scilab

This function is used to plot and compare the power spectra of different discrete PAM signlas such as: NRZ polar, NRZ Bipolar, NRZ Unipolar, Manchester format etc.

a = input('Enter the Amplitude value:');
fb = input('Enter the bit rate:');
Tb = 1/fb;  //bit duration
f = 0:1/(100*Tb):2/Tb;
for i = 1:length(f)
  Sxxf_NRZ_P(i) = (a^2)*Tb*(sinc_new(f(i)*Tb)^2);
  Sxxf_NRZ_BP(i) = (a^2)*Tb*((sinc_new(f(i)*Tb))^2)*((sin(%pi*f(i)*Tb))^2);
  if (i==1)
    Sxxf_NRZ_UP(i) = (a^2)*(Tb/4)*((sinc_new(f(i)*Tb))^2)+(a^2)/4;
  else
    Sxxf_NRZ_UP(i) = (a^2)*(Tb/4)*((sinc_new(f(i)*Tb))^2);
  end
  Sxxf_Manch(i) = (a^2)*Tb*(sinc_new(f(i)*Tb/2)^2)*(sin(%pi*f(i)*Tb/2)^2);
