Simulation and Performance Study of Quadrature Amplitude Modulation and Demodulation System

Abstract

Abstract Both traditional frequency modulation and phase modulation digital modulation methods have low spectral utilization, poor multipath fading resistance, slow power spectrum attenuation, and severe out-of-band radiation. Quadrature Amplitude Modulation (QAM) is a digital modulation technique that combines phase and amplitude control. It not only achieves higher spectral efficiency, but also transmits higher rate data in a defined frequency band. In this paper, the basic principle, system structure and performance parameters of QAM modulation and demodulation are studied in depth to realize simulink simulation and performance analysis of QAM modulation and demodulation system. The basic theory and implementation method of analog signal digitization are analyzed in detail to realize simimlink of differential pulse code modulation. Based on the above theory, the analog source QAM transmission system is constructed, and simulink is used for modeling and simulation and performance verification.The simulation results show that the constructed QAM digital transmission system can achieve good transmission of analog signals.
