What is PCM and What are the basic elements of PCM?

Introduction:

PCM Stands for Pulse Code Modulation. When a carrier signal’s characteristics are changed in response to the message signal’s current values, this process is known as modulation. The carrier signal, which has a high frequency and carries no data but is used for long-distance transmission, is the signal that is being conveyed for communication. The message signal is the signal that is being transmitted for communication. Numerous modulation methods exist, and they are divided into groups based on the kind of modulation they use. Pulse Code Modulation is the one that is most frequently used for digital modulation. To transform a signal’s analogue information into a binary sequence, or 1s and 0s, pulse code modulation is used. A binary sequence will appear in a PCM’s output.

There are two types of pulse code modulations:

· Differential pulse code modulation (DPCM)

· Adaptive differential pulse code modulation (ADPCM)

Basic Elements of Pulse Code Modulation (PCM)

Sampling, Quantizing, and Encoding are done in the analogue-to-digital converter part and make up the transmitter component of a pulse code modulator circuit. Prior to sampling, a low pass filter prevents the aliasing of the message signal. Regeneration of damaged signals, decoding, and reconstruction of the quantized pulse train are the fundamental processes of the receiver section.

1. Low Pass Filter

To prevent aliasing of the message signal, this filter removes high-frequency components from the input analogue signal that is higher in frequency than the highest frequency of the message signal.

2. Sampler

This method aids in gathering sample data at instantaneous message signal values to recreate the original signal. The sampling theorem states that the sample rate must be more than twice the highest frequency component W of the message signal.

3. Quantizer

Quantizing is the process of constructing the data and removing extraneous bits. When the sampled output is sent into the Quantizer, the unnecessary bits are removed, and the value is compressed.

4. Encoder

The encoder converts analogue signals to digital format. Each quantization level is identified by a binary code. Here, sampling was carried out using the sample-and-hold method. The LPF, Sampler, and Quantizer components will function as an analogue to the digital converter. Encoding reduces the amount of bandwidth consumed.

5. Regenerative Repeater

The signal intensity is increased in this section. To make up for the signal loss, reconstruct the signal, and boost its strength, the channel’s output additionally incorporates a regenerative repeater circuit.

6. Decoder

To recreate the original signal, the decoder circuit decodes the pulse-coded waveform. The demodulator is this circuit.

7. Reconstruction Filter

A low-pass filter known as the reconstruction filter is used to recover the original signal following the completion of the digital-to-analogue conversion by the regenerative circuit and the decoder.

Conclusion:

In conclusion, Pulse Code Modulation (PCM) stands as a cornerstone technology in digital audio and communication systems. Through its systematic process of converting analogue signals into digital representations, PCM has revolutionized the way we store, transmit, and manipulate audio and other continuous signals.

Goro Akechi is for the girls and the gays because he perfectly encapsulates the clinical insanity of being a teenage girl going through puberty. The underhanded compliments? The threats so subtle no one can actually complain? The pleasant composure hiding feral gremlin rage? Simultaneously admiring and envying your gay crush? He's like if Regina George could kill people

We came to a young world. We came to a world of raw, elemental wonder. Of chaos and exultant passion. Of energy vaster, and more potent than anything we beheld in the cosmos... It doesn’t seem like it’s random or chaos. It just seemed like potential.

Imagine looking at a character whose entire premise is that in every stage of his life, he's made every version of himself into someone that inspires people to such a degree that EVERY SINGLE VERSION OF HIM has people wanting to literally follow in his footsteps in some way or another.....

And coming to the conclusion that like.....the most important things about him are the sum of all his trappings. His entirely homemade developed from scratch could not exist if not for what he already was and brought with him BEFORE crafting this newest version of himself trappings, with his greatest trait throughout all of it being his adaptability; his ability and willingness to roll with the punches and not try to simply weather any opposition or changes to his life but instead reshape himself as needed to better fit INTO whatever new shape his life and the world around him takes. All while managing to carry the most innate, fundamental and necessary aspects of himself from one version to the next. Thus every single version of himself is different but simultaneously every single version of himself is also undeniably the same person.

The strength of this character, to me, will always be that he can be so many versions of himself, he can become so many things, all without ever actually losing or discarding any of the aspects of himself he considers most essential, the things he's not willing to lose or give up just to keep going. Finding that road not taken by most, usually because most never even think to look for it as an option. But one that he's always able to find because the one trick he's mastered in his tumultuous life is threading that needle of not just digging in his heels in an unproductive way but rather being selective about when and where he makes a stand and decides "this is not a thing I'm willing to compromise about" but here are places and ways I can and will change and evolve and adapt in order to make it possible for me to hold onto these parts and keep them as they are.

And that's why its always so mind-boggling to me that so many writers can't seem to think of anything else to do with Dick Grayson other than invent some new reason for him to just....not be that person, or to like just take the character whose most basic fundamental trait he's NOT about to compromise on is willingly giving up his spot in the driver's seat of his own life.....and make him just a passenger in his own life and stories.

Dick Grayson at age nine....at age nineteen...at age twenty nine....the one core thread running through all versions of him is the only way he's standing back and letting you call the shots for him or putting him on the sidelines in some way is over his dead body.

HOW he goes about that, what that looks like, who he becomes and what aspects of himself he plays up at some times and what traits he lets fall by the wayside at other times when they offer less in service to his primary goal here....that changes constantly. He changes constantly.

But those changes are almost always (or at least they used to be/should be IN MY OPINION) made with the intention of keeping certain things about him or his life as consistent as possible.

That's the duality of Dick Grayson that I'm here for. The inherent contradiction of him that COULD allow for endless conflict and breaking new narrative ground in all sorts of ways if mined properly:

His eternal willingness to compromise....but only ever in pursuit of doubling down on the ways he's not willing to compromise.

Forever walking that tightrope in ways that only a kid born and raised in a circus could ever hope to.

What's your opinion on Barriss and her story in Tales of the empire?

I liked it!! it was still a bit messy and needed more time or focus to work better, but it was LEAGUES better than morgan's episodes. my 2 pet peeves were "why was 4th sister 4th when she was clearly there before trilla (2nd) and reva (3rd)" (@just-prime pointed out they seem to have run out of inquisitor names LOL) and barriss' designs (partly cause head covering where???) or at least her inquisitor and episode 6 designs. both were so mid but i did a little sketchbook redesign of her inquisitor fit i watched it to heal myself

ngl I always find it wild to see Star Wars stuff that's like "if you think about it in terms of realistic statistics/science then..." about almost any aspect of it.

I mean, what about the Star Wars films gives the impression that this universe abides by realistic statistics, or realistic anything else? SW is broadly a fantasy epic projected onto an IMAX screen with a space background painted on it. Yeah, the planets and moons in the films almost always have improbably limited biomes and two major locations max, because narratively these locations are usually just fantasy city-states with space aesthetics.

Starships travel at the speed of plot and we simply jump past the amount of time that presumably is passing, and sort of imply the passage of that time through shifts in the character dynamics. But this passage of time cannot be analyzed with any kind of consistency because the only logic governing it is the pace of the story.

Just how long did it take the Empire to send a full contingent of forces to Dantooine, search the entire planet, find the Rebel base, and then report back to Tarkin between one scene and another? No one says and no one appears to care. How long did it take Han and Leia to reach Bespin and what exactly went on between them while Luke was, in the same time frame, going through a protracted training over multiple days at an absolute minimum? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

How do giant space worms survive inside asteroids that somehow have an Earth-approximate gravitational field and I guess an atmosphere? Shhhh don't think about it. The point of the sequence is not "how does the giant space worm subsist off this random asteroid and how does it breathe and how does gravity work in this context, seriously" but that the giant worm sequence is fucking sick.

There's probably some after the fact EU justification invented by people who had nothing to do with the original writing of the space worm (or perhaps there are several mutually incompatible explanations) and I am profoundly disinterested in them. Nothing could make this even slightly realistic and it was never intended to be. Star Wars sings space shanties at scientific/mathematical realism as it sails past on a completely different ship going in the exact opposite direction.

And I do mean "sails" because while astronomy might tell us that space is unfamiliar and wild on a level we as Earthbound lifeforms can barely comprehend, Star Wars understands that space is basically an ocean, yet with stars and cool but survivable planets in it, or sometimes it's air but combined with a super cool space background so you can have early 20th century aerial combat that would make no sense in actual space conditions and doesn't need to.

"If you consider relativity, then just running the Empire would be..." General relativity does not govern the galaxy far, far away. Space magic does. I'm not sure there are even time zones.
