Additional Constellation diagrams • Quadrature Phase Shift-Keying (QPSK) • Phase Shift Keying: • 8-state Phase Shift-Keying (8-PSK) • 16-state Phase Shift-Keying (16-PSK) • 32-state Phase Shift-Keying (32-PSK)
QPSK • Constellation points: Subset of 16-QAM constellation. • Not a unique representation, but popular. • Constellation points lie in a circle. (“Constant envelope”). • Gray coding employed. • Bandwidth unchanged compared to BPSK. Constellation diagram for QPSK
8-PSK • Three bits per symbol. • Constellation points lie on a circle. • More data packed in at the same bandwidth, hence, more spectral efficiency. Constellation diagram for 8-PSK
Even more spectral efficiency Constellation diagram for 16-PSK Constellation diagram for 32-PSK
An engineering tradeoff • Higher constellation indicates higher data rate. • But the points to come closer to each other. • At the receiver, higher SNR required at the same error performance. • Tradeoff between spectral efficiency and signal quality.
