Dear Engr. Flordeliza L. Valiente,
In compliance with the fulfillment of the requirements on the course ECE123L, we will be submitting the prototype, "Wireless Audio and Video Transmitter" in accordance with your instructions
This documentation includes information with regards to the prototype's operation and principles. It also includes the project circuit diagram that has been used. It also contains details on how the circuit works, its components, its effective bandwidth of operation and some limitations of the device.
Thank you!
Sincerely yours,
LALIM, Maria Leonora DC.

II . Ac k n o w l e d g e m e n t :
First of all, we would like to thank God for giving the ability to accomplish
the task given to us. We would like to thank our professor, Engr. Flordeliza L.
Valiente, for giving us the opportunity to design a wireless audio and video
transmitter antenna and for teaching us the principles regarding the transfer of
information from a transmitter to a receiver through different types of medium. It
gave us the idea on how such a device works and its components. We would also
like to thank Alexan Enterprises for the Home Video Distribution Kit which we
used as a basis in designing our own wireless audio video transmitter. To those
friends and colleague who lends us helping ideas through the process of this
project. Sincerest gratitude to all of you!

A transmission medium can be generally categorized as either guided or
unguided. Guided transmission media are those with some form of conductor
that provides a conduit in which electromagnetic signals can propagate.
Unguided transmission media are wireless systems and do not have physical
conductors. The direction of propagation in an unguided transmission medium
depends on the direction in which the signal was emitted and any obstacles the
signal may encounter while propagating. Signals propagating down an unguided
transmission medium are available to anyone who has a device capable of
receiving them. The most widely used and available unguided transmission
medium is the air or free space. An antenna is a conductor that can act as a
transducer that converts electrical energy into electromagnetic waves ready for
transmission, and electromagnetic waves into electrical energy.
Electromagnetic waves are caused by the interaction between an electrical
current and a magnetic field. Unlike other waves, the energy streams caused by
the interplay of magnetic and electrical forces can travel through empty space.
An RF modulator is a device that takes a baseband input signal and outputs
a radio frequency-modulated signal. This is often a preparation step in
transmitting signals, either across open air via an antenna or transmission to
from a composite video, RGB, YUV or internal source, and generate a PAL
or NTSC broadcast signal that can be fed into a television's aerial/coaxial
connector.
Multi-channel RF modulators are commonly used in home audio/video
distribution. These devices have multiple audio and video inputs and one RF
output. Audio/video outputs from source devices such as a DVD player, VCR, or
DSS receiver are connected to the audio/video inputs on the modulator. The
modulator is then programmed to broadcast the signals on a certain frequency.
That RF broadcast is then received by the connected TV. When the TV is tuned to
the programmed channel, the audio/video signal of the source device is accessed.

The MC1374 is a Television modulator IC that includes an FM audio
modulator, sound carrier oscillator, RF oscillator, and RF dual input modulator. It
is designed to generate a TV signal from audio and video inputs. The MC1374's
wide dynamic range and low distortion audio make it particularly well suited for
applications such as video tape recorders, video disc players, TV games and
subscription decoders.
A 10 V DC supply was used to power the MC1374 IC. The audio and video
input signals must be modulated to develop a signal which can be readily
transmitted using the antenna. The input audio signal must undergo frequency
modulation and amplitude modulation. The video signal will undergo amplitude
modulation only. First, the sound oscillator circuit connected at pins 2 to 3
produces the carrier signal needed to modulate the frequency of the input audio
signal. The frequency of the oscillator input can be varied by adjusting the
capacitances and inductances of the LC tank circuit connected to pins 2 and 3. It
will result to a different resonant frequency which will also change the frequency
of the input signal from the sound carrier oscillator. Pin 14 of the MC1374 is
internally connected to the FM modulator as shown in the pin assignment of the
IC. The audio signal will be modulated to the desired signal frequency for
IC will provide the radio frequency signal to be used for the amplitude modulation
of the input audio and video signals. The amplitude of the carrier produced by this
oscillator is controlled by the components of the LC circuit of the oscillator. The
resistors in the LC tank are used to control the quality factor of the filter circuit.
The transistors circuits connected to pin 9 of the IC are used for vestigial sideband
modulation. To reduce the bandwidth of the video signal to be transmitted,
vestigial sideband modulation will produce a suppressed sideband from the input
video signal that is to be transmitted instead. Finally, the inductors connected to
the antenna are used as loading coils which increases the electrical length of the
antenna and at the same time provide a better match to the characteristic
impedance of the antenna.
The transmitter will only operate at a frequency range of 66 Mhz to 72 Mhz
or the channel 4 of a television. The transmitter should not be placed far from the
receiver for a clear reception of signal.
