Bit Error Rate of BPSK

Modulation is the process by which a binary stream (zeros and ones) is converted to a format that is suitable for transmission over a wired or wireless channel that is prone to noise and interference as well as distortion. The most basic modulation scheme is BPSK or Binary Phase Shift Keying. It transmits the information in the phase of the signal which could be one of two values (0 degrees or 180 degrees). BPSK signal can be represented as (called the passband representation) s(t)=a(t)*cos(2*pi*f*t) where a(t) is a time varying parameter which can have one of two values (+1 or […]
