Fourier Spectral Analysis

 

We all know that for Fourier spectral analysis, you will get an impulse of significant magnitude at the frequency values of sine or cosine waves. Here, we will discuss the spectral analysis or frequency components when we add, subtract, multiply, convolve, integrate or differentiate signals, etc.

For sinusoidal signals

Addition

When we add two sinusoidal signals, the frequency components of the combined signal will be the frequencies of the individual signals. 





Subtraction

Again, for subtraction, the frequency components of the combined signal will be the frequencies of the individual signals. But if the amplitudes and periods for both signals are the same, then the combined signal will be null.

Multiplication

The frequency domain components for the time domain multiplication of two sinusoidal signals will be f1 ± f2, where f1 is the frequency of the first sinusoidal signal and f2 is for the other.

Convolution

The frequency domain components for the time-domain convolution of two sinusoidal signals will be centered at the original sinusoidal signal frequencies.

Differentiation

For a signal's differentiation, the signal's frequency components will be the same as the original signal, but its amplitude will be scaled by j.ω.

Integration

For integration of a signal, the frequency components of the signal will be the same as the original signal, but its amplitude will be scaled by 1 / j.ω

MATLAB Code for QAM (Quadrature Amplitude Modulation)

  One of the best-performing modulation techniques is QAM [↗] . Here, we modulate the symbols by varying the carrier signal's amplitude and phase in response to the variation in the message signal (or voltage variation). So, we may say that QAM is a combination of phase and amplitude modulation. Additionally, it performs better than ASK or PSK [↗] . In fact, any constellation for any type of modulation, signal set (or, symbols) is structured in a way that prevents them from interacting further by being distinct by phase, amplitude, or frequency. MATLAB Script % This code is written by SalimWirelss.Com % This is an example of 4-QAM. Here constellation size is 4 % or total number of symbols/signals is 4 % We need 2 bits once to represent four constellation points % QAM modulation is the combination of Amplitude modulation plus % Phase Modulation. We map the decimal value of the input symbols, i.e., % 00, 01, 10, 11 to 1 + 1i, -1 + 1i, 1 - 1i, and -1 - 1i, respectively. clc;clear all;...

Star to Delta Conversion and Vice Versa | star delta conversion

The transformation of a star to a delta and a delta to a star circuit is a hot topic in electrical science and engineering. Examiners often ask about the conversion of star to delta and delta to star circuit diagram. When solving complex circuits, the conversion procedure can sometimes ease calculations and save time. Without further ado, we'll go over the characteristics of both a star and a delta circuit. As its title suggests, the star circuit looks like a star. Delta circuit, on the other hand, looks like a delta. Now we'll look at the mathematical method for converting delta to star and star to delta. Delta to Star R1 = RaRb / (Ra + Rb + Rc) R2 = RbRc / (Ra + Rb + Rc) R3 = RaRc / (Ra + Rb + Rc) Use star to delta online converter and vice versa Star to Delta Ra = (R1R2 + R2R3 + R3R1) / R2 Rb = (R1R2 + R2R3 + R3R1) / R3 Rc = (R1R2 + R2R3 + R3R1) / R1 Next Page>>

MIMO, massive MIMO, and Beamforming

  The term 'MIMO' was originally applied to systems with multiple antennas on both the transmitter (Tx) and receiver (Rx) sides. MIMO is a key component of Wi-Fi 4 and 5, 3G, and 4G cellular networks. This method was introduced to increase the capacity of a channel by sending multiple simultaneous data streams through a single channel. All simultaneous data streams in a MIMO system are encoded orthogonally multiplexed, which reduces interference. Massive MIMO is used extensively in 5G to achieve extremely high capacity and to communicate via  beamforming  or directional transmission. 1. Some essential characteristics of a MIMO system 1.1. Spatial Division Multiplexing Access (SDMA) SDMA is a key feature of MIMO, allowing a base station (BS) to communicate with several devices simultaneously (or even using the same frequency) if they are in different locations. There may be no knowledge of channel information at the transmitter. 1.2. Spatial Multiplexing Another essential ...

MATLAB Code for Rank and Condition Number of a Channel Matrix

To assess the signal strengths of various multipaths between TX and RX and enable communication, the rank and condition numbers of a channel matrix are highly helpful characteristics. Signal multipath propagation is a typical occurrence in wireless communication. Phases shift and the signal weakens during this process. We are discussing signal phases in this context. When numerous multipaths arrive at the receiver, the resulting signal may be additive or destructive because of phase alterations. A channel matrix is referred to as a sparse matrix if it only has a few stronger elements and the majority of the other elements are zero. Finding rank and condition number for sparse matrices is important for numerous reasons. That topic has already been covered in another article [ click here ]. We will just talk about the corresponding MATLAB codes here. MATLAB Code for Rank and Condition Number of a Channel Matrix %Author: Salim Wireless For study materials on wireless %com...

Simulation of ASK, FSK, and PSK using MATLAB Simulink

ASK, FSK & PSK HomePage MATLAB Simulation Simulation of Amplitude Shift Keying (ASK) using MATLAB Simulink      In Simulink, we pick different components/elements from MATLAB Simulink Library. Then we connect the components and perform a particular operation.  Result A sine wave source, a pulse generator, a product block, a mux, and a scope are shown in the diagram above. The pulse generator generates the '1' and '0' bit sequences. Sine wave sources produce a specific amplitude and frequency. The scope displays the modulated signal as well as the original bit sequence created by the pulse generator. Mux is a tool for displaying both modulated and unmodulated signals at the same time. The result section shows that binary '1' is modulated by a certain sine wave amplitude of 1 Volt, and binary '0' is modulated by zero amplitude.
