Following a brief discussion with my friend Mr. Rethnakaran Pulikkoonattu on phase noise profiles, he pointed me to his write up on Oscillator Phase Noise and Sampling Clock Jitter . In this post, we will discuss the math behind integrating the phase noise power spectral density (in dBc/Hz) to find the root mean square jitter value.
In a previous post (here), we discussed in brief, Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) transmission. Let us know probe bit more into the motivation of cyclic prefix (aka guard interval) associated with each OFDM symbol. What is cyclic prefix? Let us consider one subcarrier (subcarrier +1 specified in IEEE 802.11a specification) alone. In the figure…
Using the services of a new author ‘RV’, we are starting a new series of articles in the blog. Typically in India, many of the competitive examinations pertaining to Engineering (GATE, IES) and rectuitment by private and public sector companies (ISRO, BSNL, BEL, BHEL) uses examination with objective questions for the first level screening. We…
Following discussion of bit error rate (BER) for BPSK and bit error rate for FSK, it may be interesting to move on to discuss a higher order constellation such as Pulse Amplitude Modulation (PAM). Consider that the alphabets used for a 4-PAM is (Refer example 5-34 in [DIG-COMM-BARRY-LEE-MESSERSCHMITT]).
Thanks to Prof. K V S Hari, I was informed that the centenary year for Indian Institute of Science (IISc), Bangalore starts on May 27th 2008. As part of the event, a conference with the theme Managing Complexity in a Distributed World (MCDES) is to be held at IISc from May27th to 31st 2008.
I happened to visit ‘The Digital Signal Processing Blog’, maintained by Mr. Andres Kwasinski, Ph. D. In the blog one can find details about the upcoming IEEE conferences pertaining to communication and multimedia processing. Further, in some of the posts, author shares his thoughts on topics like fixed point arithmetic (here) and wavelets (here) etc….
Question 15 on communication from GATE (Graduate Aptitude Test in Engineering) 2012 Electronics and Communication Engineering paper. Q15. A source alphabet consists of N symbols with the probability of the first two symbols being the same. A source encoder increases the probability of the first symbol by a small amount and decreases that of the…
Coding is a technique where redundancy is added to original bit sequence to increase the reliability of the communication. Lets discuss a simple binary convolutional coding scheme at the transmitter and the associated Viterbi (maximum likelihood) decoding scheme at the receiver. Update: For some reason, the blog is unable to display the article which discuss…
In this post, the objective is to figure out the minimum separation between two sinusoidals having frequencies , of duration each to be orthogonal. Let the phase difference between the sinusoidals is where can take any value from to (Refer Example 4.3 [DIG-COMM-SKLAR]). For the two sinuosidals to be orthogonal,
Wishing all the readers of dsplog.com a great year 2010 ! Its been a mixed year for dsplog. Some key milestones a) Crossing 1000 subscribers with 1100+ comments in March 2009 b) Crossing 100 posts with 2200 subscribers and 2600+ comments in October 2009 c) As I write this, we have 102 posts with 2603…
Question 25 on math from GATE (Graduate Aptitude Test in Engineering) 2012 Electronics and Communication Engineering paper. Q25. If , then the value of is, (a) (b) (c) (d) 1
The post covers various neural network based word embedding models. Starting from the Neural Probabilistic Language Model from Bengio et al 2003, then reduction of complexity using Hierarchical softmax and Noise Contrastive Estimation. Further works like CBoW, GlOVe, Skip Gram and Negative Sampling which helped to train on much higher data.
Quick check of on Blogspot, thanks to the information provided here. Good ! It works…would like to have a better formatting though. Anyhow this will do for now.
In TETRA specifications, one of the modulation technique used is Differential Quaternary Phase Shift Keying (DQPSK). We will discuss the bit error rate with non-coherent demodulation of DQPSK in Additive White Gaussian Noise (AWGN) channel.
