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

we get this

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);

xlabel('Time');
ylabel('Amplitude');

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

% Show the plot

Q-function in BER vs SNR Calculation (with Simulation)

Q-function in BER vs. SNR Calculation In digital communications and signal processing, the Q-function plays a significant role in predicting system reliability. It allows engineers to quantify the probability that Gaussian noise will exceed a specific threshold, causing a bit error. What is the Q-function? The Q-function is a mathematical function representing the tail probability of the standard normal (Gaussian) distribution. It is the complementary cumulative distribution function (CCDF) of a standard Gaussian distribution. Q(x) = (1 / √(2ฯ€)) ∫โ‚“∞ e^(-t² / 2) dt The Role of the Q-function in BER vs. SNR The Q-function is the standard tool for calculating BER in systems like BPSK or QPSK over AWGN (Additive White Gaussian Noise) channels. For BPSK: In BPSK, we transmit +√E b (bit 1) and -√E b (bit 0). The decision boundary is set at 0 . If -√E b was sent, an error occurs if noise r > √...

Design of CMOS Flip-Flops (SR, D, JK)

Design of CMOS Flip-Flops (SR, D, JK) A flip-flop or latch is a circuit with two stable states, used to store state information. It is the basic storage element in sequential logic and a fundamental building block in digital electronics systems, including computers and communication devices. Flip-flops and latches act as data storage elements for states, pulse counting, and synchronization of variably-timed input signals to a reference clock. Flip-flops can be transparent/opaque (latches) or clocked (synchronous, edge-triggered). Latches are level-sensitive, while flip-flops are edge-sensitive. In sequential logic, the output depends on current inputs and previous states. Fig.1 shows a sequential circuit combining a combinational block and a memory element. ...

Core Process of GMSK Modulation Phase Accumulation (Integration of Filtered Signal) After applying Gaussian filtering to the Non-Return-to-Zero (NRZ) signal, we integrate the smoothed signal to produce a continuous phase signal. For GMSK, the modulation index is $h=0.5$, meaning a bit '1' results in a phase shift of $\pi/2$: ฮธ(t) = 2ฯ€h ∫ 0 t m filtered (ฯ„) dฯ„ This integration is crucial for avoiding abrupt phase transitions, ensuring smooth and continuous phase changes.
