QAM Modulation using Karnaugh-map walks

This article focused on constructing constellation for rectangular QAM modulation using Karnaugh-map walks. Exploit inherent property of Karnaugh-maps to construct Gray coded QAM constellation points. M-ary Quadrature Amplitude Modulation (M-QAM) In MQAM modulations, the information bits are encoded as variations in the amplitude and the phase of the signal. The M-QAM modulator transmits a series … Read more

QAM modulation: simulate in Matlab & Python

A generic complex baseband simulation technique, to simulate all M-ary QAM modulation techniques is given here. The given simulation code is very generic, and it plots both simulated and theoretical symbol error rates for all M-QAM modulation techniques. Rectangular QAM from PAM constellation There exist other constellation shapes (like circular, triangular constellations) that are more … Read more
