Questions tagged [modulation]
Modulation is the process of varying one or more properties of a high-frequency periodic waveform, called the carrier signal, with the amplitude of low-frequence modulating signal which typically contains information to be transmitted.

16-QAM high noise? GNU Radio
I've been learning a bit about DSP recently and tried to build a working 16-QAM (or M-QAM) modem in GNU Radio, but haven't been successful. I think the issue might be high noise caused by some of the ...

How to compute SNR after splitting an RF channel into I and Q channels using a Mixer?
If I have a AWGN real channel given by : $$r_{RF}(t) = Acos(2\pi f_ct + \phi) + \eta(t)$$ Suppose, $\eta(t)$ is a WSS WGN process with 0 mean and $R_{\eta\eta}(\tau) = \sigma^2\delta(\tau)$ and $S_\...

BER BPSK in GNU Radio
My goal is to calculate the BER and compare the BER curve with theoretical result from this E2E BPSK system. Hence, my idea is to save the bit stream of input and bit stream of output to calculate the ...
