Abstract

The MATLAB software with relevant Toolboxes for developing Simulink model is used for the simulation of system. In this paper, three basic types of digital modulation techniques are discussed then the bit error rate performance characteristics of receiver are evaluated by using MATLAB Simulink model for FSK, PSK and QAM modulation techniques. There are various kinds of channel used in wireless communication. In this paper, the AWGN channel is used between transmitter and receiver. This paper focuses on the characterization and the design of analog signal waveforms that carry digital information and compares their performance on an AWGN channel.
