The abbreviation BER stands for bit error rate, which indicates how many corrupted bits are received (after the demodulation process) compared to the total number of bits sent in a communication process. It is defined as, In mathematics, BER = (number of bits received in error / total number of transmitted bits) On the other hand, SNR ...

MIMO Channel Matrix | Rank and Condition Number

MIMO / Massive MIMO MIMO Channel Matrix | Rank and Condition... The channel matrix in wireless communication is a matrix that describes the impact of the channel on the transmitted signal. The channel matrix can be used to model the effects of the atmospheric or underwater environment on the signal, such as the absorption, reflection or scattering of the signal by surrounding objects. When addressing multi-antenna communication, the term "channel matrix" is used. Let's assume that only one TX and one RX are in communication and there's no surrounding object. Here, in our case, we can apply the proper threshold condition to a received signal and get the original transmitted signal at the RX side. However, in real-world situations, we see signal path blockage, reflections, etc., (NLOS paths [↗]) more frequently. The obstruction is typically caused by building walls, etc. Multi-antenna communication was introduced to add...

Channel Impulse Response (CIR)

Channel Impulse Response (CIR) 📘 Overview & Theory 📘 How does the channel impulse response affect the signal? 🧮 Online Channel Impulse Response Simulator 🧮 MATLAB Codes 📚 Further Reading Wireless Signal Processing CIR, Doppler Shift & Gaussian Random Variable The Channel Impulse Response (CIR) is a concept primarily used in the field of telecommunications and signal processing. It provides information about how a communication channel responds to an impulse signal. What is the Channel Impulse Response (CIR) ? It describes the behavior of a communication channel in response to an impulse signal. In signal processing, an impulse signal has zero amplitude at all other times and amplitude ∞ at time 0 for the signal. Using a Dirac Delta function, we can approximate this. ...(i) δ( t) now has a very intriguing characteristic. The answer is 1 when the Fourier Transform of δ(...

Drone Detection via Low Complexity Zadoff-Chu Sequence Root Estimation

Summary Based on Yeung, 2025: Yeung, C.K.A., Lo, B.F. and Torborg, S. Drone detection via low complexity zadoff-chu sequence root estimation. In 2020 IEEE 17th Annual Consumer Communications & Networking Conference (CCNC) (pp. 1-4). IEEE, 2020, January. The rise in drone usage—from agriculture and delivery to surveillance and racing—has introduced major privacy and security challenges. Modern drones often use OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) with Zadoff-Chu (ZC) sequences for synchronization. While powerful, detecting these sequences blindly (without knowing their parameters) remains a challenge. Aim This article presents a low-complexity solution to blindly detect ZC sequences used by unknown drones. The approach uses a novel double differential method that works without large correlation banks, making it efficient and real-time capable. ZC Sequence Fundamentals A ZC sequence of prime length P and roo...

Theoretical BER vs SNR for BPSK

Let's simplify the explanation for the theoretical Bit Error Rate (BER) versus Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) for Binary Phase Shift Keying (BPSK) in an Additive White Gaussian Noise (AWGN) channel. Key Points Fig 1: Constellation Diagrams of BASK, BFSK, and BPSK [↗] BPSK Modulation: Transmits one of two signals: +√Eb or -√Eb , where Eb is the energy per bit. These signals represent binary 0 and 1 . AWGN Channel: The channel adds Gaussian noise with zero mean and variance N0/2 (where N0 is the noise power spectral density). Receiver Decision: The receiver decides if the received signal is closer to +√Eb (for bit 0) or -√Eb (for bit 1) . Bit Error Rate (BER) The probability of error (BER) for BPSK is given by a function called the Q-function. The Q-function Q(x) measures the tail probability of the normal distribution, i.e., the probability that a Gaussian random variable exceeds a certain value x. Understanding the Q...
