Assignment 6: Matlab Code For BER Generation of QPSK System Over AWGN Channel

The document describes a MATLAB assignment to generate plots of bit error rate (BER) versus signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and bit energy to noise power spectral density (Eb/N0) for a QPSK modulation system over an additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) channel. The assignment involves writing MATLAB code to generate random QPSK data, transmit it over the channel with AWGN noise, detect and decode the received signal, calculate the number of bit errors, and plot the resulting BER curves.

3. The complex AWGN signal, n with zero mean and variance equal to 0.5 can be gen-
erated using the following MATLAB command: (Hint: The MATLAB function randn
generates a zero mean Gaussian random variable with unit variance. AWGN noise for
QPSK signal is complex Gaussian (in-phase and quadrature components)).(2 marks)

i n AWGN = (1/sqrt(2))*(randn(1, 3 ∗ 105 )+j*randn(1, 3 ∗ 105 ));


ii n AWGN = (randn(1, 3 ∗ 105 )+j*randn(1, 3 ∗ 105 ));

iv n AWGN = (sqrt(2)/(randn(1, 3 ∗ 105 )+j*randn(1, 3 ∗ 105 ));
