LAB TASKS:
ASK Modulation
1. Initialize variables
2. Generate carrier signal
3. Generate binary message
4. Start FOR Loop
5. Generate ASK modulated signal
6. Add AWGN
7. End FOR Loop
8. Plot the binary data, carrier and ASK signal

ASK Demodulation
1. Start FOR Loop
2. Compute energy of each symbol as a test statistic z (T ).
3. Make a decision by comparing with a threshold. Set the threshold in the middle of the test
statistics of the two symbols.
4. Plot the conditional probability density functions for both symbols at a low SNR value where
they have some overlap.
5. Compare the received binary message with the original message and compute probability of bit
error (PB)
6. Plot the SNR vs PB curve for several values of SNR, from 10dB to -15dB with a step of 5dB (-
15 : 5 : 10). The SNR should be varied by varying the signal amplitude. The figure below is a
representation of this plot.

CODE:
Tb = 1;
fs = 100;
fc = 5;
N = 100;
E=1;
A1 = sqrt(2*E/Tb);
A0 = 0;
SNR_range = -20:5:20;

t = 0:1/fs:Tb-1/fs;
carrier = sin(2*pi*fc*t);

binary_data = randi([0 1], 1, N);


ask_signal = [];

% ASK Modulation
for i = 1:N
if binary_data(i) == 1
ask_symbol = A1 * carrier;
else
ask_symbol = A0 * carrier;
end
ask_signal = [ask_signal, ask_symbol];
end

noisy_signal = awgn(ask_signal, 20, 'measured');

% Compute Bit Error Probability (PB)


errors = sum(received_bits ~= binary_data);
PB = errors / N;

% SNR vs PB curve
PB_values = zeros(size(SNR_range));
for idx = 1:length(SNR_range)
noisy_signal = awgn(ask_signal, SNR_range(idx), 'measured');
received_bits = zeros(1, N);
for i = 1:N
received_symbol = noisy_signal((i-1)*fs*Tb + 1 : i*fs*Tb);
energy = sum(received_symbol .* carrier);
received_bits(i) = energy > thresh;
end
PB_values(idx) = sum(received_bits ~= binary_data) / N;

CONCLUSION:
In the ASK modulation MATLAB lab, we successfully implemented and
analyzed Amplitude Shift Keying (ASK) modulation and demodulation. The
results demonstrated how binary data is represented through amplitude variations
in the carrier signal, confirming the effectiveness of ASK for digital
communication systems.
