Merge to Pulse density modulation date May 2011 Pulse Frequency Modulation PFM is a modulation method for representing an analog signal using only two levels 1 and 0 . It is analogous to pulsewidthmodulation PWM , to which the reader may refer for more detailed information, as the magnitude of an analog signal is encoded in the duty cycle of a square wave . If a pulse rate is set to 8000 pulses per second at 0 signal voltage then when the signal voltage reaches maximum the pulse rate will step up to 9000 but when the negative maximum voltage is reached the pulse rate will step down to 7000. A stable oscillator that is frequency modulated is used to create the pulse rate because of this PFM is not as widely used. ref http www.andreas schwope.de ASIC s Schnittstellen Data Lines body modulation.html ref Unlike PWM, in which the width of square pulses is varied at constant frequency , PFM is accomplished using fixed duration pulses and varying the repetition rate thereof. In other words, the frequency of the pulse train is varied in accordance with the instantaneous amplitude of the modulating signal at sampling intervals. The amplitude and width of the pulses is kept constant. The advantage of pulse frequency modulation is better immunity to noise interference than PAM. The disadvantage is more complex transmitter and receiver design. ref http www.aubraux.com dsp dsp modulationpulse frequency pfm.php ref Potential applications It has been proposed that PFM could serve as a suitable Visual prosthesis retinal prosthesis device.

Merge from Pulse frequency modulation date May 2011 Pulse density modulation , or PDM , is a form of modulation used to represent an analog signal with digital data . In a PDM signal, specific amplitude values are not encoded into pulses of different size as they would be in Pulse code modulation PCM . Instead, it is the relative density of the pulses that corresponds to the analog signal s amplitude. Pulsewidthmodulation PWM is the special case of PDM where all the pulses corresponding to one sample are contiguous in the digital signal. Description In a pulse density modulation bitstream a 1 corresponds to a pulse of positive polarity A and a 0 corresponds to a pulse of negative polarity A .

Differential pulse code modulation DPCM is a signal encoder that uses the baseline of pulse code modulation PCM but adds some functionalities based on the prediction of the samples of the signal. The input can be an analog signal or a digital signal . If the input is a continuous time analog signal, it needs to be sampling signal processing sampled first so that a discrete time signal is the input to the DPCM encoder. Option 1 take the values of two consecutive samples if they are analog samples, quantization signal processing quantize them calculate the difference between the first one and the next the output is the difference, and it can be further entropy coding entropy coded . Option 2 instead of taking a difference relative to a previous input sample, take the difference relative to the output of a local model of the decoder process in this option, the difference can be quantized, which allows a good way to incorporate a controlled loss in the encoding. Applying one of these two processes, short term redundancy positive correlation of nearby values of the signal is eliminated compression ratios on the order of 2 to 4 can be achieved if differences are subsequently entropy coded, because the entropy of the difference signal is much smaller than that of the original discrete signal treated as independent samples.
