Link to the black & white edition: https: //www.amazon.com/gp/product/152149388X Digital Modulations using Matlab is a learner-friendly, practical and example driven book, that gives you a solid background in building simulation models for digital modulation systems in Matlab. This book, an essential guide for understanding the implementation aspects of a digital modulation system, shows how to simulate and model a digital modulation system from scratch. The implemented simulation models shown in this book, mostly will not use any of the inbuilt communication toolbox functions and hence provide an opportunity for an engineer to understand the basic implementation aspects of modeling various building blocks of a digital modulation system. It presents the following key topics with required theoretical background along with the implementation details in the form of Matlab scripts. * Basics of signal processing essential for implementing digital modulation techniques - generation of test signals, interpreting FFT results, power and energy of a signal, methods to compute convolution, analytic signal and applications. * Waveform and complex equivalent baseband simulation models. * Digital modulation techniques covered: BPSK and its variants, QPSK and its variants, M-ary PSK, M-ary QAM, M-ary PAM, CPM, MSK, GMSK, M-ary FSK. * Monte Carlo simulation for ascertaining performance of digital modulation techniques in AWGN and fading channels - Eb/N0 Vs BER curves. * Design and implementation of linear equalizers - zero forcing and MMSE equalizers, using them in a communication link. * Simulation and performance of modulation systems with receiver impairments.

If you understand basic mathematics and know how to program with Python, you’re ready to dive into signal processing. While most resources start with theory to teach this complex subject, this practical book introduces techniques by showing you how they’re applied in the real world. In the first chapter alone, you’ll be able to decompose a sound into its harmonics, modify the harmonics, and generate new sounds. Author Allen Downey explains techniques such as spectral decomposition, filtering, convolution, and the Fast Fourier Transform. This book also provides exercises and code examples to help you understand the material. You’ll explore: Periodic signals and their spectrums Harmonic structure of simple waveforms Chirps and other sounds whose spectrum changes over time Noise signals and natural sources of noise The autocorrelation function for estimating pitch The discrete cosine transform (DCT) for compression The Fast Fourier Transform for spectral analysis Relating operations in time to filters in the frequency domain Linear time-invariant (LTI) system theory Amplitude modulation (AM) used in radio Other books in this series include Think Stats and Think Bayes, also by Allen Downey.
