Modulation Characterization Using the Wavelet Transform ABSTRACT PHYSICS WATKINS, LANffiR A. B.S., CLARK ATLANTA UNIVERSITY, 1996 MODULATION CHARACTERIZATION USING THE WAVELET TRANSFORM Advisor: Dr. Kenneth Peny, Department of Computer Science Thesis Dated: May, 1997 The focus of this research is to establish an Automatic Modulation Identifier (AMI) using the Continuous Wavelet Transform (CWT) and several different classifiers. A Modulation Identifier is of particular interest to the military, because it has the potential to quickly discriminate between different communication waveforms. The CWT is used to extract characterizing information from the signal, and an artificial Neural Network is trained to identify the modulation type. Various analyzing wavelets and various classifiers were used to assess comparative performance. The analyzing wavelets used were the Mexican Hat Wavelet, the Morlet Wavelet, and the Haar Wavelet. The variety of classifiers used were the Multi-Layer Perceptron, the K-Nearest Neighbor and the Fuzzy Artmap. The CWT served as a preprocessor, and the classifiers served as an identifier for Binary Phase Shift Keying (BPSK), Binary Frequency Shift Keying (BFSK), Binary Amplitude Shift Keying (BASK), Quadature Phase Shift Keying (QPSK), Eight Phase Shift Keying (8PSK), and Quadature Amplitude Modulation (QAM) signals. Separation of BASK, BFSK and BPSK was performed in part one of the research project, and separation of BPSK, QPSK, 8PSK, BFSK, and QAM comprised the second part of the project. Each experiment was 1 performed for waveforms corrupted with Additive White Gaussian Noise ranging from 20 dB - 0 dB carrier to noise ratio (CNR). To test the robustness of the technique, part one of the research project was tested upon several carrier frequencies oa/2, and co/3 which was different from the carrier frequency co that the classifiers were trained upon. In the separation of BASK, BFSK and BPSK, the AMI worked extremely well (100% correct classification) down to 5 dB CNR tested at carrier frequency co, and it worked well (80% correct classification) down to 5 dB CNR tested at carrier frequencies oaf2, and co/3. In the separation of BPSK, QPSK, 8PSK, BFSK, and QAM, the AMI performed very well at 10 dB CNR (98.8% correct classification). Also a hardware design in the Hewlet Packard Visual Engineering Environment (HP-VEE) for implementation of the AMI algorithm was constructed and is included for future expansion of the project CLARK ATLANTA UNIVERSITY THESIS DEPOSITED IN THE ROBERT W.

  • Wavelets in High-Capacity DWDM Systems and Modal-Division Multiplexed Transmissions
    Advanced Optical Communications II, Technology and Communications Systems Master (ETSIT-UPM), Final Work 2014 Wavelets in High-Capacity DWDM Systems and Modal-Division Multiplexed Transmissions Andrés Macho, Student Member, IEEE Abstract— Optical communications receivers using wavelet signals processing is proposed in this paper for dense wavelength- division multiplexed (DWDM) systems and modal-division multiplexed (MDM) transmissions. The optical signal-to-noise ratio (OSNR) required to demodulate polarization-division multiplexed quadrature phase shift keying (PDM-QPSK) modulation format is alleviated with the wavelet denoising process. This procedure improves the bit error rate (BER) performance and increasing the transmission distance in DWDM systems. Additionally, the wavelet-based design relies on signal decomposition using time-limited basis functions allowing to reduce the computational cost in Digital-Signal-Processing (DSP) module. Attending to MDM systems, a new scheme of encoding data bits based on wavelets is presented to minimize the mode coupling in few-mode (FWF) and multimode fibers (MMF). The Shifted Prolate Wave Spheroidal (SPWS) functions are proposed to reduce the modal interference. Fig. 1.

Trident Academy of Technology BPUT, Bhubaneswar , Odisha , India Abstract: To accommodate high performance and high bit rates for multimedia applications in present and future wireless communication systems, it is essential that modulation techniques applied in this scenario are able to support high data rates upto and above 200 Mbps. To meet the increased demand of higher bit rates, the wireless systems are incorporating the multi-carrier modulation techniques ,such as FFT based MCM which is also known as conventional OFDM and wavelet transform based MCM. Wireless multicarrier modulation is a technique of transmitting data by dividing the input data stream into parallel sub-streams that are each modulated and multiplexed onto the channel at different carrier frequencies. In this paper, we studied the performance of DWT based MC-CDMA and FFT based MC- CDMA modulations for transmission over wireless fading channels. This scheme is shown to be overall quite similar to FFT based OFDM modulation, but with some interesting additional features and improved characteristics. Results shows that DWT based MC- CDMA modulation has better bit error rate (BER) performance than conventional FFT based CDMA without cyclic prefix (CP) for all signal-to-noise ratios and also outperforms FFT based CDMA for low signal-to-noise ratio values.
