Syntax

z = genqamdemod(y,const)

Description

z = genqamdemod(y,const) demodulates the complex envelope, y, of a quadrature amplitude modulated signal using the signal mapping specified in const.

Open Live Script

Create the points that describe a hexagonal constellation.

inphase = [1/2 1 1 1/2 1/2 2 2 5/2];
quadr = [0 1 -1 2 -2 1 -1 0];
inphase = [inphase;-inphase]; inphase = inphase(:);
quadr = [quadr;quadr]; quadr = quadr(:);
const = inphase + 1i*quadr;

Plot the constellation.

h = scatterplot(const);

Figure Scatter Plot contains an axes object. The axes object with title Scatter plot, xlabel In-Phase, ylabel Quadrature contains a line object which displays its values using only markers. This object represents Channel 1.

Generate input data symbols. Modulate the symbols using this constellation.

x = [3 8 5 10 7];
y = genqammod(x,const);

Demodulate the modulated signal, y.

z = genqamdemod(y,const);

Plot the modulated signal in same figure.

hold on;
scatterplot(y,1,0,'ro',h);
legend('Constellation','Modulated signal');
hold off;

Figure Scatter Plot contains an axes object. The axes object with title Scatter plot, xlabel In-Phase, ylabel Quadrature contains 2 objects of type line. One or more of the lines displays its values using only markers These objects represent Constellation, Modulated signal.

Determine the number of symbol errors between the demodulated data to the original sequence.

numErrs = symerr(x,z)
numErrs = 
0

Input Arguments

collapse all

Complex envelope, specified as a scalar, vector, matrix, or 3-D array of numeric values. If y is a matrix with multiple rows, the function processes the rows independently.

Signal mapping, specified as a complex vector.

Data Types: double | single
Complex Number Support: Yes

Output Arguments

collapse all

Message signal, returned as a scalar, vector, matrix, or 3-D array of numeric values. The message signal consists of integers between 0 and length(const)–1. The datatype of z is the same as the data type of input x.

Data Types: double | single
