Low-pass and High-pass filters in MATLAB

 

MATLAB Code

 clc;
clear all;
close all;

amplitude = 1; % Amplitude of the sine wave
frequency = 10; % Frequency of the sine wave in Hertz
duration = 1; % Duration of the signal in seconds
Fs = 10000; % Sampling frequency

% Time vector
t = 0:1/Fs:duration;

% Generate the sine wave signal
sinusoidal_signal = amplitude * sin(2*pi*frequency*t) + amplitude*2 * cos(2*pi*500*t);

% Plot the sine wave signal
figure;
plot(t, sinusoidal_signal, 'b-', 'LineWidth', 2);
title('Sinusoidal Signal');
xlabel('Time (seconds)');
ylabel('Amplitude');
grid on;

figure()
%demdulated
d=sinusoidal_signal;
filter=fir1(200, 10/(Fs/2), 'low');
original_t_signal=conv(filter,d);
t1=0:1/(length(original_t_signal)-1):1;
plot(t1,original_t_signal);
title('demodulated signal');

Output 

 

 
Fig: sin(2*pi*10*t) + 2cos(2*pi*500*t)
 
 
 

After Applying a Low-Pass filter which cut-off frequency is 10Hz, 

we get this 

 
 
Fig:  sin(2*pi*10*t)

 
 

MATLAB Code for High-Pass Filter

% Define or generate a sample signal
Fs = 1000; % Sampling frequency
t = 0:1/Fs:1; % Time vector
f_signal = 50; % Frequency of the signal
signal = sin(2*pi*f_signal*t);

% Design a high-pass filter
cutoff_frequency = 10; % Cutoff frequency in Hz
filter_order = 200; % Filter order
highpass_filter = fir1(filter_order, cutoff_frequency/(Fs/2), 'high');

% Apply the high-pass filter to the signal
filtered_signal = filter(highpass_filter, 1, signal);

% Plot the original and filtered signals
figure;
subplot(2,1,1);
plot(t, signal);
title('Original Signal');
xlabel('Time');
ylabel('Amplitude');

subplot(2,1,2);
plot(t, filtered_signal);
title('High-pass Filtered Signal');
xlabel('Time');
ylabel('Amplitude');

% Add a legend
legend('Original Signal', 'Filtered Signal');

% Show the plot
grid on;
 

Output (when cut-off frequency is 10 Hz and original signal is set to 50 Hz)

 
 

Output (when cut-off frequency is 60 Hz and original signal is set to 50 Hz)

OFDM Symbols and Subcarriers Explained

This article explains how OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) symbols and subcarriers work. It covers modulation, mapping symbols to subcarriers, subcarrier frequency spacing, IFFT synthesis, cyclic prefix, and transmission. Step 1: Modulation First, modulate the input bitstream. For example, with 16-QAM , each group of 4 bits maps to one QAM symbol. Suppose we generate a sequence of QAM symbols: s0, s1, s2, s3, s4, s5, …, s63 Step 2: Mapping Symbols to Subcarriers Assume N sub = 8 subcarriers. Each OFDM symbol in the frequency domain contains 8 QAM symbols (one per subcarrier): Mapping (example) OFDM symbol 1 → s0, s1, s2, s3, s4, s5, s6, s7 OFDM symbol 2 → s8, s9, s10, s11, s12, s13, s14, s15 … OFDM sym...

Theoretical BER vs SNR for binary ASK, FSK, and PSK (with MATLAB Code + Simulator)

๐Ÿ“˜ Overview & Theory ๐Ÿงฎ MATLAB Codes ๐Ÿงฎ Q-function ๐Ÿ“š Further Reading Bit Error Rate (BER) Equations In ASK, noise directly affects the signal amplitude, making it the most vulnerable since the data is carried in amplitude changes. In FSK, data is represented by frequency variations, and because noise typically impacts amplitude more than frequency, FSK is more robust than ASK. In PSK, data is encoded in the signal phase, and BPSK specifically uses 180-degree phase shifts, creating the greatest separation between signal points and therefore achieving the lowest bit error rate (BER) for the same power level. BER formulas for ASK, FSK, and PSK modulation schemes. ASK BER = 0.5 × erfc(0.5 × √SNR) FSK BER = 0.5 × erfc(√(SNR / 2)) PSK BER = 0.5 × erfc(√SNR) ...

Design of CMOS XOR/XNOR Gates

Design of CMOS XOR/XNOR Gates The semiconductor industry has experienced rapid integration of multimedia applications into mobile electronics, leading to very high integration density in CMOS VLSI. As operating frequencies increase, power consumption, speed, silicon area, and reliability become critical considerations. The XOR-XNOR circuits are fundamental building blocks in arithmetic circuits (Full Adders, Multipliers), compressors, comparators, parity checkers, code converters, error-detecting/correcting codes, and phase detectors. Their performance directly impacts the complex circuits they are used in. Design goals include full output voltage swing, low power consumption, reduced transistor count, minimal delay, and simultaneous non-skewed outputs. Static Logic (Static CMOS) Stat...
