Modulation Workflow & Mathematics Theory

Mathematical Background

1. Amplitude Shift Keying (ASK)

The signal is represented by changing the amplitude of the carrier wave. For Binary ASK:

$$s(t) = \begin{cases} A \cos(2\pi f_c t) & \text{for bit 1} \\ 0 & \text{for bit 0} \end{cases}$$

2. Frequency Shift Keying (FSK)

The frequency of the carrier is shifted between two discrete values ($f_0$ and $f_1$):

$$s(t) = \begin{cases} \cos(2\pi f_1 t) & \text{for bit 1} \\ \cos(2\pi f_0 t) & \text{for bit 0} \end{cases}$$

3. Phase Shift Keying (PSK)

The phase of the carrier is shifted by 180° ($\pi$ radians) to represent different bits:

$$s(t) = \begin{cases} \cos(2\pi f_c t) & \text{for bit 1 (0 rad)} \\ \cos(2\pi f_c t + \pi) & \text{for bit 0 (\(\pi\) rad)} \end{cases}$$

⚠️ Simulation Constraints & Rules

To ensure a valid and visually clear simulation, the following digital signal processing (DSP) rules must be followed:

  • • Nyquist Criteria: The Sampling Frequency ($f_s$) must be at least twice the Carrier Frequency ($2 \times f_c$). For a smooth visual curve, $f_s \ge 10 \times f_c$ is recommended.
  • • Carrier vs. Message: The Carrier Frequency should be much higher than the Bit Rate ($f_c \gg R_b$). In these simulators, Bit Duration is fixed at 1s ($R_b = 1$ bps).
  • • Aliasing Warning: If $f_s < 2f_c$, the output waveform will suffer from aliasing, appearing as a lower-frequency distorted wave.
  • • Phase Continuity: These simulators use "Sudden Phase Transition" (Non-coherent) modeling for simplicity.

Modulation FAQ & Help

Why is BPSK more noise-resistant than ASK?

BPSK relies on phase shifts (180 degrees) rather than amplitude. Since noise typically affects the amplitude of a signal, BPSK remains more recognizable to a receiver even in high-interference environments.

What is the Nyquist rate in these simulations?

The Nyquist rate requires the sampling frequency to be at least twice the highest frequency component. In our simulator, if your Carrier is 10Hz, your Sampling must be at least 20Hz.

Here, we modulate the symbols by varying the carrier signal's amplitude and phase in response to the variation in the message signal (or voltage variation). So, we may say that QAM is a combination of phase and amplitude modulation. Additionally, it performs better than ASK or PSK [↗] . In fact, any constellation for any type of modulatio...

Coherent vs. Non-Coherent Demodulation

  For demodulation In general: 1. Synchronous (coherent) demodulation Receiver generates a local carrier/oscillator . It combines/multiplies the received signal with that carrier. Then a filter extracts the message. Received signal ↓ × Local oscillator ↓ Low-pass filter ↓ Message So yes, carrier multiplication is a common implementation of synchronous demodulation . 2. Asynchronous (non-coherent) demodulation Receiver doesn't need a phase-synchronized local carrier . It uses properties of the received signal itself to recover the information. For ASK , an envelope detector is the classic example: ASK signal ↓ Diode + RC ↓ Envelope ↓ Comparator ↓ Data Modulation Synchronous demodulation Non-coherent/asynchronous demodulation ASK/OOK Local carrier + multiplier Envelope detector AM Product detector Envelope detector FSK Coherent correlator/mixer Frequency discriminator, filters, etc. PSK Local synchronized carrier + multiplier Differential/n...

Orthogonal Time Frequency Space (OTFS) (with MATLAB)

In OTFS (Orthogonal Time Frequency Space) modulation — a scheme designed for high-Doppler and time-varying wireless channels — the terms ISFFT and SFFT are key mathematical transformations used to move between different representation domains. Figure: OTFS block diagram 1. ISFFT — Inverse Symplectic Finite Fourier Transform Purpose: Transforms data symbols from the delay-Doppler domain to the time-frequency domain . \[ X[n, m] = \frac{1}{\sqrt{NM}} \sum_{k=0}^{N-1} \sum_{l=0}^{M-1} x[k, l] \, e^{j2\pi \left( \frac{nk}{N} - \frac{ml}{M} \right)} \] Here, \( N \) is the number of Doppler bins (time slots), and \( M \) is the number of delay bins (subcarriers). The ISFFT maps each data symbol from the delay-Doppler grid (where the channel is sparse and easier to equalize) to the time-frequency grid (where standard multicarrier modulation like OFDM can be applied). 2. SFFT — Symplectic Finite Fourier Transform Purpose: Performs the reverse operation ...
