The two terms are used frequently in data communication are bit rate and the baud rate. Bit rate can be defined as the number of bits transmitted during 1s. Baud rate can be referred as to the number of the signal units per second that are required to represent those bits. A signal unit is composed of one or more bits. In discussions of the computer efficiency, the bit rate is the important; we want to know how long it takes to process each and every piece of information. In data transmission, however, we more concerned with how efficiently we can move those data from one place to another, either in pieces or blocks.

The fewer signals units required, the more efficient the system and less bandwidth required to transmit more bits; so we are more concerned with baud rate. The baud rate determines the bandwidth requires sending the signal. Bit rate equals the baud rate times; number of bits represented by each signal unit. Baud rate equals the bit rate divided by number of bits represented by each signal unit. The bit rate is always greater than or in some cases equal to the baud rate. So we can say that the bit rate is the number of bits per second while Baud rate is number of signal units per second.

Why BPSK system is implemented in spartan 3e FPGA kit?

BPSK is a modulation technique. It is used to modulate and demodulate the required signal. It can be virtually implemented in MATLAB. But to understand its physical behaviour, it needs to be implemented on FPGA board.


What is the difference between BPSK and DPSK?

BPSK=> 1.The BPSK stands for “Binary Phase-shift keying”. 2.DPSK is a not a method of BPSK, where there is no reference phase signal. 3.amplitude shift keying 4.lesser bandwidth more probability error DPSK=> 1.The DPSK stands for “Differential phase-shift keying”. 2.DPSK is a method of BPSK, where there is no reference phase signal. 3.It is one type of phase modulation used to transmit data by altering the carrier wave’s phase. 4.greater bandwidth probability error less

What does the acronym 'BPSK' mean?

The acronym "BPSK" stands for burst pulse shift keying. Burst pulse shift keying is the simplest form of phase shift keying or PSK known currently to exist.


What is the difference between QPSK?

QPSK (Quadrature Phase Shift Keying) encodes two bits of data in each symbol by shifting the phase of the carrier signal by 0, 90, 180, or 270 degrees. In contrast, BPSK (Binary Phase Shift Keying) only encodes one bit per symbol by shifting the phase by 0 or 180 degrees. QPSK is more bandwidth-efficient, but it requires a more complex receiver compared to BPSK.


How do you do modulation BPSK with a digital input the modulation must use matlab simulink?

BPSK Modulation can be done by using a multiplier. Digital data must be multiplied with the carrier frequency. In matlab simulink use a multiplier block to one input apply a sinusoidal generator & to the other a Pulse generator

Difference between absolute PSK and differential PSK?

In abs. PSK only instant phase for the incoming bits are considered. For DPSK, the difference between previous phase and the present phase is considered. Example: If BPSK is used, then for 0 if phase if pi and for 1 it is 0, then for abs. BPSK the phase states for the bit stream 1010 will be 0,pi,0,pi for DPSK, we assume initial phase is zero and a rule that , if incoming bit is zero, then phase difference is 0 and if it is 1 then, phase difference is pi. So, phase difference will be--pi,0,pi,0 Instant phase will be, pi,pi,0,0....Easy!!


What is the data speed in QPSK?

In Quadrature Phase Shift Keying (QPSK), data speed is determined by the symbol rate and the number of bits encoded per symbol. QPSK transmits two bits of data per symbol by utilizing four distinct phase shifts (0°, 90°, 180°, and 270°). Therefore, if the symbol rate is R symbols per second, the data speed can be calculated as 2R bits per second. This allows QPSK to achieve a higher data rate compared to simpler modulation schemes like BPSK, which only transmits one bit per symbol.


Why we use band pass filter in binary phase shift keying receiver or not low pass filter?

The bpsk receiver requires a particular band of frequencies to be passed to generate the required carrier which is further divided and then given to the demodulator. So the basic use of the bpf is to bandlimit the signal generated by the square law device and attenuate any dc levels otherwise. Lpf would simply allow all low frequencies to pass, which is not desired.
