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.

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

📘 Overview & Theory 🧮 MATLAB Codes 🧮 Q-function 📚 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) ...

Linear vs Circular Convolution

Linear vs Circular Convolution Linear convolution vs circular convolution Linear convolution (what nature does) If: x[n] = transmitted signal h[n] = channel impulse response (multipath) Then the received signal is: y[n] = x[n] * h[n] This means: Past symbols spill into future symbols Causes inter-symbol interference (ISI) DFT of y[n] is not a simple product Circular convolution (what DFT assumes) The DFT assumes periodic signals : y[n] = x[n] ⊛ h[n], where indices wrap around modulo N Only under circular convolution does the DFT satisfy: Y[k] = X[k] · H[k] This is what enables one-tap frequency-domain equalization . What happens in the real channel (linear convolution) The channel performs linear convolution: y[n] = Σ l=0 Lh−1 h[l] x[n-l] But because: CP absorbs the “spillover” Receiver discards CP before DFT The useful part of the received symbol becomes: y[n] = Σ l=0 Lh−1 h[l] x[(n-l) mod N] Modulo inde...
