Combined QPSK and MFSK Communication over an AWGN Channel Jennifer Christensen South Dakota School of Mines & Technology Advisor: Dr. Komo
Outline • Background Material and Terminology • Bandwidth Efficiency Plane • Reed Solomon Coding • Results
Background • Multiple Frequency Shift Keying (MFSK) • Multiple Phase Shift Keying (MPSK) • Combination of BFSK, QPSK: • 4 phases, 2 frequencies-16 signals
Background (cont’d) • AWGN Channel –Gaussian distribution, μ=0, σ2 = No/2 • Eb/No-bit energy divided by spectral noise density • Probability of Bit Error for QPSK Q si2=Es I
Decision Stage: z(T)=ai(T)+n0 . . . . . . r(t)=si(t)+n(t) si(t) M=4N Simulation Transmitted signal plus noise Correlator Receiver Output - Gaussian random variable Determine closest match
At Pb=10-5 Eb/No = 9.52 dB for M=4, 16, 64 Error Probability Plane
Bandwidth Efficiency • R/W=Data rate/Bandwidth • For coherently detected QPSK: • Minimum tone spacing = 1/(2Ts) • M=4N - Minimum tone spacing = 1/Ts
Bandwidth-Efficiency Plane M=4N, Pb=10-5
Reed-Solomon Coding • Error correction code adds redundancies to data • (n,k) notation • n = total number of code symbols • k = number of data symbols encoded • Corrects up to (n-k)/2 errors
Probability of Bit Error Expand bit error calculations for M-ary signaling: where and • Rc is the code rate (k/n) • Coded Bandwidth: Wc=W/Rc
n=256 Reed Solomon Codes Plot each point on Bandwidth Efficiency Plane
Bandwidth-Efficiency Plane n=256, Pb=10-5 k=240 M=16, N=2 (no coding) k=224 k=192 k=160
Qualitative Results • M=16 for N=2 with Reed Solomon Coding • (256, 192) Code: • R/W=2*(3/4 ) ≈1.5 bps/Hz • Coding gain = 9.52-5.71 = 3.81 dB • (256, 224) Code: • R/W=2*(7/8) ≈1.75 bps/Hz • Coding gain = 9.52-6.16 = 3.36 dB
Bandwidth-Efficiency Plane (256, 224) M=16, N=2 (uncoded) (256, 192)
Conclusions • MFSK and QPSK combination has same bandwidth efficiency as QPSK • Bandwidth efficiency decreases with Reed- Solomon coding • Bit error probability also decreases • Future work: • Soft-decision decoding • Evaluating across different channels
