  1. 64-QAM Communications System Design and Characterization Project #1 EE283 daeik.kim@duke.edu

  2. What you need to do (red) • Assignments: • 1. Data Source (0) • Propose a data source that you will use for your communication system. Discuss the randomness of data. • 2. 64-QAM Memoryless Channel Coder (25) • Design a channel coder with a code rate 1. The designed data source feeds the channel coder. The coder outputs are 64-QAM in-phase and quadrature-phase data. For example, with 6-bits taken from data source, an in-phase and a quadrature-phase amplitudes are produced. • 3. QAM Base Band Modulation (25) • Design a QAM modulator. Modulator inputs are the output of 64-QAM channel coder and the modulation frequency, etc. The output is a modulated QAM waveform. Show unit in-phase, unit quadrature-phase, and random data waveforms in a fine time resolution (for readability). • 4. Channel Modeling (0) • Design a channel module that adds Gaussian noise to the modulated data with a given noise intensity. Show a 64-QAM eye diagram. • 5. QAM Base Band Demodulation (25) • Design a QAM demodulator. Assume that full phase information is given and the phase is locked. The demodulator outputs are in-phase and quadrature-phase amplitudes. Show a demodulated 64-QAM constellation with noise. • 6. 64-QAM Channel Decoder (25) • Design a QAM decoder that performs the inverse of the designed 64-QAM channel coder. • 7. BER Measurements (0) • Design a module calculates bit-error-rate with the original data source and the decoded data stream. Discuss how many measurements are required to get 95% or 99% confidence. Make a plot of BER vs SNR. All the numbers, such as signal power and noise power, must be obtained from simulation. • 8. Bandwidth Efficiency (0) • Calculate the bandwidth efficiency with a given BER. All the numbers, such as bandwidth must be obtained from simulation. Discuss the definition of bandwidth of your baseband waveform.
