Lecture 8 Today, we are going to talk about: How to calculate the average probability of symbol error for different modulation schemes that we studied? How to compare different modulation schemes based on their error performances?
Lecture 8 Error probability of bandpass modulation Before evaluating the error probability, it is important to remember that: Type of modulation and detection ( coherent or non-coherent), determines the structure of the decision circuits and hence the decision variable, denoted by z. The decision variable, z, is compared with M-1 thresholds, corresponding to M decision regions for detection purposes. Decision Circuits Compare z with threshold.
Lecture 8 The matched filters output (observation vector= ) is the detector input and the decision variable is a function of , i.e. For MPAM, MQAM and MFSK with coherent detection For MPSK with coherent detection For non-coherent detection (M-FSK and DPSK), We know that for calculating the average probability of symbol error, we need to determine Hence, we need to know the statistics of z, which depends on the modulation scheme and the detection type.
