Channel characterisation and coding for the FM SST channelAlbertyn, Eben 10 November 2011 (has links)
M.Ing. / The transmission of digital data at higher data rates and greater reliabilities is becoming increasingly more important in the society of today. The usage of, especially wireless digital data, is increasing at an alarming rate, and the need arises for more bandwidth to be made available for this purpose. Hence, the need arises to optimise and expand the usage of bandwidth currently under use. Existing wireless channels, such as the commercial FM service, need to be re-evaluated and unused bandwidth needs to be developed and used as close to capacity as possible. In this dissertation, a study was launched to develop the FM SST (Supplementary Signal Transmission) commercial analog service as a simplex digital channel that can commercially be used to transmit a myriad of digital data. With the help of a commercial FM radio channel, digital data was transmitted using a number of different modulation schemes to obtain channel measurements for the FM SST channel. The modulation scheme that performed the best, given certain criteria, was GMSK. This raw information was then used to extract first and higher order statistical information from the channel, in order to parameterise discrete channel models, based on a Markov process. The channel models that were used were the Gilbert, GilbertElliott and Fritchman channel models. These channel models were then tested according to their iirst and higher order statistical data to evaluate their effectiveness in modelling the error process on the FM SST channel. It was found that the channel model best approximating the real channels was the Gilbert channel. Once satisfactory results were obtained, these discrete channel models were then used to evaluate various error correction schemes for their ability to correct burst errors on the FM SST channel. From the various schemes evaluated, a (63,39) BCH with an interleaver of index 4 was found to perform the best. The purpose of which is to transmit digital data at the highest data rate possible and at the same time having a bit error rate less than lxl0-6.

Computer Simulation of Cross Correlators for Correlated InputsCoulter, Linda J. 01 January 1984 (has links) (PDF)
Cross correlator systems, analog and clipped input channels, with correlated random narrow band Gaussian noise as inputs are computer simulated. The performance of each system is evaluated on the basis of the output signal-to-noise ratio. The output SNR of each system is compared with theoretical asymptotic approximations computed as a function of the SNR of the input channels. The output of the simulation compares within 3 dB of the asymptotic approximations for the analog correlator for all values of the correlation coefficient tested and for the systems with clipped input channels with uncorrelated inputs. For the systems with clipped input channels, certain combinations of the input SNR with non-zero correlation cause the output SNR to be zero. This causes discontinuities in the dB plot. For the systems with clippers and non-zero correlation of the input channels, the output of the simulation compares within 3 dB of the results of the asymptotic approximations when no discontinuities occur in the output plot.

A study of the effects of linear networks on FM wavesJohnson, Preston Benton 12 January 2010 (has links)
The analysis of the distortion which results when frequency-modulated waves are passed through linear networks is investigated by the Fourier method and the Quasi-steady-state method. The major enphasis is placed on the Fourier method, and extensive digital computer programs are developed to allow this method to be implemented on the modern, high-speed digital computer. In the Fourier method, the frequency-modulated wave which is applied to the input of a linear network is broken up into its Fourier spectrum. Each of the resulting ‘'sideband'' frequencies is then passed through the network and is subjected to alterations in amplitude and phase. The output wave is then synthesized by taking the vector sum of the "weighted" sideband components. In contrast to the single pair of sideband frequencies generated by amplitude modulation, the spectrum of a frequency-modulated wave contains an infinite number of sideband components. Fortunately, only a relatively small number of these sidebands have significant influence on the total makeup of the waveform. The number of significant sidebands is proportional to the value of modulation index. When the modulation index is high, the number of significant sidebands is very large and the number of computations required by the Fourier method becomes enormous. Previously considered to be completely impractical, the Fourier method was usually abandoned in favor of the Quasi-steady-state approach. However, the digital computer techniques developed in the course of this investigation allow for a fast, economical, and convenient analysis based on the Fourier method even when the modulation index is relatively high. Analyses were performed for values of modulation index up to 45 and techniques are discussed for increasing this range.
The Quasi-steady-state method is based on the assumption that the frequency of the input wave is changing slowly enough that the frequency of the output wave at any instant is equal to the "instantaneous fregquency' of the input wave. This method is inherently in error since it neglects the transient terms generated by the changing frequency. To compensate for this error, it is the general practice to incorporate correction terms, usually in the form of an infinite series. The Quasi-steady-state method is more effective at low modulating frequencies (high modulation index). While the analysis contained in this paper considers in detail only a first-order correction, the application of higher-order correction terms is discussed. The results obtained from applying both analyses to a complex, multi-section filter indicate that the computer solution of the Fourier method is preferable for intermediate values of modulation index.
Experimental verification of the Fourier method is obtained by simulating the system on an analog computer. The advantages of this rather novel approach are discussed in some detail. The agreement between the results predicted by the digital computer and those obtained experimentally leaves no doubt to the validity and accuracy of the analysis.
Digital computer programs for analyzing the distortion using each of the above methods are given. Subprograms are also included, some of which can be used independently. Among these are a program that computes Bessel functions of the first kind for positive and negative orders and a program that computes the minimum phase shift of a network from its atténuation. All programs are written in the FORTRAN IV computer language and were executed on the IBM 7040/1401 system. / Ph. D.

Measurements and models of radio frequency impulsive noise inside buildingsBlackard, Kenneth Lee 18 August 2009 (has links)
This thesis presents results of average and impulsive noise measurements inside five office buildings and retail stores. Measurements were made at 918 MHz, 2.44 GHz, and 4.0 GHz using a superheterodyne receiver with 70 dB dynamic range and a 3-dB RF bandwidth of 40 MHz. Omni-directional and directional antennas were used to investigate the characteristics and sources of radio frequency noise in indoor channels. Statistical analyses of the measured data are presented in the form of amplitude probability distributions, pulse duration distributions, pulse spacing distributions, and noise factor distributions. Simple mathematical models of these statistical characterizations are also presented.
The measurements and analyses indicate devices with electromechanical switches (copy machines, microwave ovens, printers, and electric motors) are principal sources of impulsive noise in retail and office environments. The 918 MHz band was consistently the worst band throughout the measurement campaign. This is attributed to higher path losses at 2.44 GHz and 4.0 GHz, and to adjacent and cochannel interference from users near the 902-928 ISM band. Pulse duration statistics indicate that no significant differences exist between impulse durations in the measured bands. This suggests that impulsive noise inside buildings is very wideband, and that pulse durations are directly a function of the receIver bandwidth. Pulse spacing statistics also indicate that intervals between consecutive impulses are similar in each frequency band.
This thesis developed a computer simulation algorithm to create sequences of impulsive noise events which have statistical distributions similar to measured data. The statistical results for simulated impulsive noise are compared to measured distributions to illustrate the accuracy of the simulation algorithm. / Master of Science
