What is HDB3 encoding method?
The HDB3 code is a bipolar signaling technique (i.e. relies on the transmission of both positive and negative pulses). It is based on Alternate Mark Inversion (AMI), but extends this by inserting violation codes whenever there is a run of 4 or more 0’s.
What are B8ZS and HDB3?
AMI, B8ZS, and HDB3 are different types of line coding used in T1 and E1 communications systems. AMI (alternate mark inversion) is used in both T1 and T1 systems. B8ZS (bipolar with 8 zeros substitution) is used in T1 systems. HDB3 (high-density bipolar 3) is used in E1 systems.
What is the advantage of HDB3 code over conventional AMI code?
HDB3 prevents more than four AMI “no change” bits from being sent consecutively. This, in turn, prevents long runs of zeros in the data stream. Without HDB3, the receiving PLL (phase lock loop) circuit would have difficulty maintaining synchronisation.
How does scrambler work?
In telecommunications and recording, a scrambler (also referred to as a randomizer) is a device that manipulates a data stream before transmitting. The manipulations are reversed by a descrambler at the receiving side. Scrambling is widely used in satellite, radio relay communications and PSTN modems.
Why do we need scrambling?
The function of the scrambling is to remove long string of ones (1s) and zeros (0s) from the digital binary data. Scrambler is used in physical layer transmitter where as descrambler is used at receiver. The scrambling does not increase or decrease the bit rate i.e. the input and output bits are same in size.
What is the benefit of HDB3 scrambling technique?
Benefits or advantages of HDB3 encoding ➨It substitutes long sequence of zero level pulses with combination of other levels to offer synchronization. ➨It does not have any DC components in the encoded signal. ➨It maintains total number of bits at input and output. Hence it does not increase or decrease the data rate.

What are scrambling Codes?
Scrambling Codes are used to identify and distinguish cells from one another in WCDMA networks. These SCs are reported by the mobile users to the network to declare which cells they are able to connect to.
What are the types of scrambling techniques?
There are two common scrambling techniques: B8ZS(Bipolar with 8-zero substitution) HDB3(High-density bipolar3-zero)
