    No full text
    Digital communication has proven to be the most efficient method of data transmission especially where long distances are involved. This led to the invention of more sophisticated methods of communication ranging from mobile handset communication to more advanced satellite communication. The speeds of passing information have been improving over the years and real time video communication has been made possible with digital devices. Various methods of digital data transmission are employed based on the information to be transmitted. This paper focuses on carrier recovery in digital communication systems, especially those based on Quadrature Phase Shift Keying (QPSK) modulation and demodulation scheme. The design being implemented is that of coherent demodulation for QPSK scheme using SIMULINK design tool. Performance of QPSK is also investigated to make a comparison and the suitability of the scheme to use in digital data transmission applications

    This study introduces a brand-new modified QAM modem that transmits data at a rate of 14.4 kbps over a 32 kbps Adaptive Differential Pulse Code Modulation (ADPCM) channel. This modified QAM modem’s goal is to lessen the nonlinear distortion that ADPCM introduces. The effectiveness of ADPCM is investigated using modified and regular QAM modems with various constellations. The simulation findings demonstrate that ADPCM performs better when using a customized QAM modem than when using a normal QAM modem. Additionally, a circular constellation performs better than a rectangular one

    This paper describes the development of a moisture-measuring instrument suitable for large grains. The paper seeks to do the measurement based on the propagation of microwaves through materials of different moisture levels. The principle of operation here is sending an equally divided signal through both arms of the bridge and comparing the output signals’ properties to determine the moisture content of the grains. The design of the bridge using waveguide and coax technology is presented.Ovaj rad opisuje razvoj pogodnog instrumenta za merenje sadržaja vlage u velikim količinama zrna (npr. skladišta, silosi).

    Biometric Feature Extraction for Iris Scans

    Full text link
    This paper generally seeks to demonstrate understanding and use of iris scans for biometric identification. Salient features of iris are identified, their extracts analyzed critically by use of a software. The software for extraction of the features is developed on MATLAB platform. Already prepared iris scans are used due to lack of scanners and/or very high resolution cameras that would have otherwise assisted to obtain the required distinct features for comparison. The program developed would compare two iris images a time and determine if they came from same individual; what we are referring to as matching. A computer vision algorithm based on The Hough Transform is made use of in determining circles present in the image which are essentially the iris and pupil. The region of interest from which the unique features are obtained would be located between papillary and limbic boundaries. Papillary (between iris and pupil) while limbic boundary is the one demarcating the iris and sclera. The comparison entails first determining codes of the two iris images through generation of separate biometric template for them then using encoding procedure. Hamming distance calculation between the iris codes determines if they match

    No full text
    AbstractThis paper presents a new modified algorithm of 16 kb/s ADPCM. The modification is related to the adaptive predictor rather than the adaptive quantiser. The purpose of this modification is to reduce the nonlinear distortion introduced by ADPCM when a high data rate signal passes through it. The performances of standard and modified algorithms are studied using a QAM signal at a data rate of 9.6 kb/s. The simulation results show that the performance of modified ADPCM is better than the standard ADPCM

    Comparison between Two Algorithms of 32kb/s ADPCM using QAM Signal at 16.8kb/s

    This paper studies the  comparison between two algorithms of 32kb/s ADPCM systems. The first algorithm uses 4-bit quantizer with sampling rate of 8000 sample/sec, and the second algorithm uses 5-bit quantizer with sampling rate of 6400 sample/sec. The comparison is done using QAM signal at data rate of 16.8kb/s. Two models of QAM signals are used, the first model operates at symbol rate of 2400 baud   with each symbol is represented by 7-bit, while, the second model operates at symbol rate of 2800 baud with each symbol is represented by 6-bit. The contribution of this paper is that sending the second model of QAM signal over ADPCM with 5-bit quantizer. Simulation results show that the performance of ADPCM with 5-bit quantizer is better than 4-bit quantizer for both models of QAM signals. Also, the performance of ADPCM using second model is better than the first model. Furthermore, the performance with circular constellation is better than rectangular on

    Study of the tracking of FHSS signal over AWGN channel

    Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum (FHSS) communications utilizes a pseudo random code to spread the bandwidth of the data being transmitted over a much wider range than is required by the data. Due to the pseudo random nature of the carriers selected for transmission, the spreading and dispreading process must occur simultaneously to recover the transmitted data signal. This requires the receiver have knowledge about the instant the transmitter began transmitting and the propagation delay between the two. However, in real world systems, this information is unavailable to the receiver. The paper utilizes MATLAB Simulink to demonstrate a method of synchronizing the code clock at the receiver with the code clock at the transmitter. This fine alignment process is known as code tracking

    AbstractThis paper introduces two newly developed near-maximum likelihood detectors, named pseudohexadecimal and modified pseudohexadecimal near-maximum likelihood detectors. These two detectors are tested against a pseudoquaternary near-maximum likelihood detector using data transmission at 9.6 kb/s over a telephone channel. Simulation results demonstrate that the performance of the pseudohexadecimal detector is better than the performance of the modified pseudohexadecimal detector, and the latter is better than the pseudoquaternary detector
