This paper describes the development of a Software Defined Radio (SDR)-based Transceiver simulation model using Quadrature Amplitude Modulation (QAM) Scheme and analyze its performance using Forward Error Correction (FEC) channel coding algorithms namely the Convolution and the Turbo Codes. This model efficiently evaluates the performance of high data rate multi array M-QAM, schemes. The performance of these FEC codes is evaluated when the system is subjected to noise and interference in the channel. In this design Additive White Gaussian Noise (AWGN) channel has been considered. The design is analyzed using Bit Error Rate (BER) and Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR) for different M-QAM techniques. The simulation results give a possible solution for future SDR systems which may be used in various wireless communication systems. An experimental result shows that the QAM transceiver achieves the transmission of data at high level accurately. FEC Channel coding scheme is used wherever the re-transmission of the data is not feasible. On the receiver side, this channel coded signal is decoded in order to get back the original data even if the channel coded signal undergoes some interference from the noise in the transmission medium. The Performance is then analyzed in terms of BER for Convolution Coding and Turbo Coding algorithm at a particular value of SNR in LabVIEW graphical programming. Finally, comparison has been drawn based on different parameters between the existing SDR system and the proposed design in this paper to analyze and highlight the effectiveness of the proposed SDR design.

In this study, it is mathematically shown that the detector inputs obtained using the matched filters in the Quadrature Amplitude Modulation (QAM) receiver are the same expressions as those obtained using the integrators if a rectangular pulse is used in the transmitter and the channel is Additive White Gaussian Noise (AWGN). Under the assumption that there is a perfect synchronization between the transmitter and the receiver. QAM is intensively used at the present time for the data transmission on subchannels in orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) communication systems such as digital subscriber lines (DSLs) modems, wireless local area networks (WLANs) and cellular wireless communication systems (e.g. 4G LTE). Cyclic-prefix OFDM is deployed in 4G LTE systems and the rectangular pulse is used in the time domain to shape all subcarriers of OFDM.

Abstract. In bandwidth limited communication systems, the high data rate transmission with performance close to capacity limits is achieved by applying multilevel modulation schemes in association with powerful forward error correction (FEC) coding, i.e. coded modulation systems. The most important practical approaches to coded modulation systems are multilevel coding with multistage decoding (MLC/MSD) and bit interleaved coded modulation with iterative demapping and decoding (BICM-ID). Multilevel modulation formats such as M-QAM, which can be used as a part of coded modulation systems, have the capability of multilevel protection. Based on this fact, we investigate the methods to improve the performance of BICM-ID using multiple interleavers with different binary channel coding schemes such as convolutional codes, turbo codes and low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes. Moreover, an MLC system with parallel decoding on levels (PDL) at the receiver is considered. In our contribution, we propose to design the individual coding schemes using the extrinsic information transfer (EXIT) charts for individual bit levels in the constellation. Our simulation results show that the BICM-ID systems, taking into account different bit-level protections, can provide an improvement of 0.65 dB, 1.2 dB and 1.5 dB for 256-QAM with turbo, LDPC and convolutional codes, respectively. On the other hand, MLC systems with PDL designed using EXIT charts for individual bit levels can slightly improve the performance and eliminate the error floor compared to the systems with MSD.

The advances recently seen in data compression, and communication systems, have made it viable to design wireless image transmission systems. For many applications such as confidential transmission, military and medical applications, data encryption techniques should be also used to protect the confidential data from intruders. For these applications, both encryption and compression need to be performed to transmit a message in a fast and secure way. Further, the wireless channels have fluctuating channel qualities and high bit error rates. In this paper, a new scheme based on encryption and channel coding has been proposed for secure image transmission over wireless channels. In the proposed scheme, the encryption process is based on keys generator and Chaotic Henon map. Turbo codes are utilized as channel coding to deal effectively with the channel errors, multipath signal propagation and delay spread. Simulation results show that the proposed system achieves a high level of robustness against wide different of attacks and channel impairments. Further, it improves image quality with acceptable data rates.

Abstract In recent years, free-space optical (FSO) technology has gained fame in communication systems due to its high data rates and license-free feature. Triangular quadrature amplitude modulation (TQAM) is an efficient modulation scheme that uses even bits per symbol, and it has a low average symbol error rate (ASER) than square quadrature amplitude modulation (SQAM). In this paper, we theoretically investigate the performance of subcarrier triangular quadrature amplitude modulation (SC-TQAM) corrupted by atmospheric turbulence in the presence of pointing errors (P.E) in FSO communications. We have considered boresight displacement, P.E effect, and atmospheric turbulence. To represent the atmospheric turbulence we consider Log-normal, Rayleigh and Rician distributions which exhibit weak, moderate and strong weather effects. The P.E is employed using Rayleigh and Rician distribution that incorporates zero and non-zero boresight displacement respectively. The moment generating functions of these models have been derived. P.E is modeled using an optical beam radius and receiver aperture radius. The combination of these parameters will help enhance the average symbol error rate (ASER). Furthermore, we have derived an analytical expression that is used to develop numerical results. The ASER performance is observed against average received irradiance, optical beam radius, P.E standard deviation and receiver aperture radius. In the end, the ASER performance is evaluated against SNR and Monte Carlo simulations are performed which validates the theoretical results.

Coherent optical fiber communications for data rates of 100Gbit/s and beyond have recently been studied extensively primarily because high sensitivity of coherent receivers could extend the transmission distance. Spectrally efficient modulation techniques such as M-ary quadrature amplitude modulation (M-QAM) can be employed for coherent optical links. The integration of multi-level modulation formats based on coherent technologies with wavelength-division multiplexed (WDM) systems is key to meet the aggregate bandwidth demand. This paper reviews coherent 16 quadrature amplitude modulation (16QAM) systems to scale the network capacity and maximum reach of current optical communication systems to accommodate traffic growth.
