Digital Modulations with MATLABs Communications Toolbox

Basic Steps
n

To generate a digitally modulated signal, the following steps have to be followed


generate random data map them to a specific constellation(MATLAB calls this digital to analog conversion) impress carrier modulation on the baseband signal above

Baseband signal
n

The function that maps your digital information to a specific constellation is modmap

MODMAP Maps digital signal to analog signal for modulation. Y = MODMAP(X, Fd, Fs, METHOD, OPT1, OPT2, OPT3) maps a sample frequency Fd (Hz) signal vector X in to a sample frequency Fs (Hz) in-phase and quadrature components in Y. Y is a two column matrix. The first column is an in-phase component and second column is a quadrature component. When METHOD = 'ask', Y is a column vector instead of a matrix. This function does mapping only. For digital modulation, use DMOD for passband simulation and DMODCE for baseband simulation.

Example: 8-Phase Modulation(8PSK)


x=randint(1,100,8): generate 1x100 integer random numbers in the range {0 to 7} y=modmap(x,1,10,'psk',8); y is a 2-column vector containing the I and Q signals. plot(y(:,1)) for I and plot(y(:,2)) for Q

Arbitrary Constellations
n

We can setup arbitrary shape constellations in a number of ways


y=modmap(x,fd,fs,qask/arb,in_phase,quad)

in-phase and quad are the x and y components of the constellation points you want to create

What are fd and fs?


n

Symbol rate is given by fd. Usually this is normalized to 1 symbol per second n Sampling rate that MATLAB uses is fs interpreted as samples per symbol (or samples per second)

V.29 is an example of 4 concentric circles

Variation of modmap
n n

An expanded format of modmap is


y=modmap(x,fd,fs,qask/circle,noc,roc,poc)

noc: number of symbols on each circle n roc: radii on each circle n poc: phase shift on each circle, in radian
