Questions tagged [modulation]

Anything related to *signal modulation*, i.e. the process of encoding the information provided by some source into the variations of some property (e.g. amplitude, frequency, phase, polarization, etc.) of a carrier signal suitable to be transmitted over a communication channel.

QPSK simulation with AWGN and BER/SER

I have a matlab code of QPSK simulation over baseband with AWGN noise, I'm calculating BER over each SNR value and plotting it along with Theoretical BER. When I'm generating SNR values in dB from 1 to 20 the code only computes simulated BER values…

Calculate Frequency Modulation in Python

I'm trying to calculate Frequency Modulation (radio context) for a given audio file (12 seconds), I managed to do it on a sine wave with the following formula: fm = np.sin(TWO_PI * (fc + b * data) * t) Where fc is the Carrier Frequency, b is the…

Calculate Amplitude Modulation in Python

I have a 4 seconds audio sample of someone saying "hello", I managed to load the wav file and show it in a time-amplitude spectrum, my next step was to calculate a AM (Amplitude Modulation) on this sound, I managed to do it on a sine wave I created…

What does the error "error: ones: invalid data type specified" mean?

This is my code it generates a signal, quantizes it, encodes it, then demodulates it. %Quantization n=8; L=2^n; vmax=8; vmin=-vmax; del=(vmax-vmin)/L; part=vmin:del:vmax; % level are between vmin and vmax with difference…

Unexplained 'Out of memory' error when using fmmod for FM modulation

I am trying to take an input signal and perform an FM modulation on it in octave. This gives me an unexplained 'out of memory' error. As far as I know, my input file is not excessively large, so I don't know why I get this error. See my trial code…

Simulate LDPC and QAM in MATLAB

I want to study LDPC and I want to simulate a program. This program will use LDPC on a randomly generated 1x32000 size binary array, then it will modulate with 16-QAM, add noise for SNR=20dB, do demodulation for 16-QAM and finally decode it using…

Are the modulations QPSK, 16QAM and 64QAM analog or numeric?

In the LTE networks, the modulations that are used by the base stations are QPSK, 16QAM and 64QAM according to the SNR. Are the modulations QPSK, 16QAM and 64QAM analog or numeric? I need to know because I am working in the cellular field (but as a…

Android app for reading ISO15693 tags with 10% modulation depth

I read a lot about how to develop an Android app that can read ISO15693 transponders. As far as that is all possible and there are a lot of ready-made apps in the PlayStore that do this task. If you look at the reading process with an oscilloscope,…

Python: FM Demod Implementation

I am thinking of analyzing a time-series of some particular values as it were a frequency-modulated signal. I was looking for a Python implementation of an FM demodulator. I know there is a demodulator function in Matlab and Octave; for Python I…
