Analog and Digital Communication Mini Projects | FM, Telecommunication, Mod...

 

Mini Project Ideas


1. You can do your mini project on analog communication topic such as FM, walkie-talkie, etc.

[1.1] Analog Communication Based Project

[1.2] MATLAB Code for Frequency Modulation (FM)


2. Compare the ASK, FSK, and PSK systems' relative performances.

(Include an introduction, concise descriptions of ASK, FSK, and PSK, MATLAB, and Simulink. You can then compare ASK, FSK, and PSK by creating BER vs. SNR graphs for each of those modulations, as well as by comparing their bandwidth, noise resistivity, complexity, and other characteristics.)

3. M-ary Modulation Based Mini Projects

(You can go for this project if you are interested in doing projects based on frequently used and modern modulation techniques. You can compare the performance analysis of various modulation schemes, like, bit rate, complexity, SNR v/s BER graph. You know frequently used modulation technique is m ary QPSK. But now QAM is also becoming popular due to its less complexity. But there is still some limitations in QAM due to its capacity in the context of noise handling. On the other hand m ary QPSK is better for very large constellation points but this technique is more complex than QAM. So, your primary goal may be investigating up to how many constellation points QAM is better than QPSK. Although, now we don't need to transfer data using QPSK with large constellation points. Obviously, in real world QAM is still used. 

For this mini project you can include a comparison of  bit and baud rate of different modulation techniques. You can start from primary modulation techniques like, ask, fsk to QPSK or QAM)


3. Telecommunication based mini project

(Here, you can discuss mechanism of telecommunication - from end user to telephone exchange office and exchange office to gateway. You can also discuss uplink and downlink connection, operating frequency, modulation used for a particular generation wireless communication. You can include the role of fiber optics in case of telecommunication, etc.)


4. Role of Equalizer in Wireless Communication

BER vs SNR for M-ary QAM, M-ary PSK, QPSK, BPSK, ...

Modulation Constellation Diagrams BER vs. SNR BER vs SNR for M-QAM, M-PSK, QPSk, BPSK, ... What is Bit Error Rate (BER)? The abbreviation BER stands for bit error rate, which indicates how many corrupted bits are received (after the demodulation process) compared to the total number of bits sent in a communication process. It is defined as,  In mathematics, BER = (number of bits received in error / total number of transmitted bits)  On the other hand, SNR refers to the signal-to-noise power ratio. For ease of calculation, we commonly convert it to dB or decibels.   What is Signal the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR)? SNR = signal power/noise power (SNR is a ratio of signal power to noise power) SNR (in dB) = 10*log(signal power / noise power) [base 10] For instance, the SNR for a given communication system is 3dB. So, SNR (in ratio) = 10^{SNR (in dB) / 10} = 2 Therefore, in this instance, the s...

Antenna Gain-Combining Methods - EGC, MRC, SC, and RMSGC

 There are different antenna gain-combining methods. They are as follows. 1. Equal gain combining (EGC) 2. Maximum ratio combining (MRC) 3. Selective combining (SC) 4. Root mean square gain combining (RMSGC) 1. Equal gain combining method We add the correlated data streams from different antennas in the equal gain combining method. Then we multiply the resultant data with (1/(number of antennas)) For example, for two antenna gain-combining  If the received symbols are y1 and y2, then  Equal combing gain, y_egc = 0.5 * (y1 + y2) 2. Maximum ratio combining method We multiply the individual data streams with weights in the maximum ratio combining method. More weightage is multiplied by those data streams with maximum {|h|^2}, where h denotes the channel impulse response. And less weightage is multiplied by those data streams with corresponding small value of  {|h|^2}.  Then we sum the data streams to improve SNR. In the case of Maximum Ratio Combining, if y1 an...

Comparisons among ASK, PSK, and FSK | And the definitions of each

Modulation ASK, FSK & PSK Constellation MATLAB Simulink MATLAB Code Comparisons among ASK, PSK, and FSK    Comparisons among ASK, PSK, and FSK Comparison among ASK,  FSK, and PSK Performance Comparison: 1. Noise Sensitivity:    - ASK is the most sensitive to noise due to its reliance on amplitude variations.    - PSK is less sensitive to noise compared to ASK.    - FSK is relatively more robust against noise, making it suitable for noisy environments. 2. Bandwidth Efficiency:    - PSK is the most bandwidth-efficient, requiring less bandwidth than FSK for the same data rate.    - FSK requires wider bandwidth compared to PSK.    - ASK's bandwidth efficiency lies between FSK and PSK.

Theoretical and simulated BER vs. SNR for ASK, FSK, and PSK

  BER vs. SNR denotes how many bits in error are received in a communication process for a particular Signal-to-noise (SNR) ratio. In most cases, SNR is measured in decibel (dB). For a typical communication system, a signal is often affected by two types of noises 1. Additive White Gaussian Noise (AWGN) 2. Rayleigh Fading In the case of additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN), random magnitude is added to the transmitted signal. On the other hand, Rayleigh fading (due to multipath) attenuates the different frequency components of a signal differently. A good signal-to-noise ratio tries to mitigate the effect of noise.  Calculate BER for Binary ASK Modulation The theoretical BER for binary ASK (BASK) in an AWGN channel is given by: BER  = (1/2) * erfc(0.5 * sqrt(SNR_ask));   Enter SNR (dB): Calculate BER BER vs. SNR curves for ASK, FSK, and PSK Calculate BER for Binary FSK Modulation The theoretical BER for binary FSK (BFSK) in a...

Constellation Diagrams of ASK, PSK, and FSK

BASK (Binary ASK) Modulation: Transmits one of two signals: 0 or -√Eb, where Eb​ is the energy per bit. These signals represent binary 0 and 1.    BFSK (Binary FSK) Modulation: Transmits one of two signals: +√Eb​ ( On the y-axis, the phase shift of 90 degrees with respect to the x-axis, which is also termed phase offset ) or √Eb (on x-axis), where Eb​ is the energy per bit. These signals represent binary 0 and 1.  BPSK (Binary PSK) Modulation: Transmits one of two signals: +√Eb​ or -√Eb (they differ by 180 degree phase shift), where Eb​ is the energy per bit. These signals represent binary 0 and 1.  Key Points For Binary Amplitude Shift Keying (BASK), binary bit '0' can be represented as lower level voltage or no signal and bit '1' as higher level voltage.  For Binary Frequency Shift Keying (BFSK), you can map binary bit '0' to 'j' and bit '1' to '1'. So, signals are in phase.  A phase shift of 0 degrees could represent a binary '1...
