Quadrature: four possible phase shift amounts; therefore, each symbol carries two bits (efficient!) phase ambiguity of ordinary QPSK

Highly bandwidth-efficient
Two bits per hertz Each constellation point represents two bits. A transition from one constellation point to the next only requires one hertz of bandwidth.

Two Big Problems: 1.

11

The trajectory goes through zero. (The phasor has very small amplitude for many cycles.) Carrier recovery will loose the carrier. There must be some signal for this to work. 2. The trajectory returns on itself. This problem can be reduced by following the trajectory itself instead of the constellation points.

Signal Quality Measures


Analog Radio: Signal to noise ratio S/N
S = Signal power N = Total noise power

Digital Radio: Use Bit Error Rate Bit Error Rate: Eb/No = (S/N)(BN/Rb) (Approximate)
Eb = Energy per bit No= Noise per bit N = Total noise power S = Signal power BN = Noise bandwidth Rb = Bit Rate Difference is because of processing gain, e.g. error correction bits can be added to digital signal transmitted so that some of the bit errors in the received signal can be corrected. Other error control techniques are available.

Example: TDMA Cellular


BW = 30 KHz Rb = 10 KHz Processing Gain = 10 Log (30/10 ) = 4.7 db

BER Performance Comparison QPSK vs FSK FSK QPSK

BER Performance QPSK approx. 3dB better than FSK Eb/No = (S/N)(BN/R)
Eb = Energy per bit No = Noise per bit N = Total noise power S = Signal power BN = Noise bandwidth R = Bit Rate BN is the bandwidth over which the signal is spread using the modulation technique or perhaps coding. It just so happens to also be the nose bandwidth and any noise outside this bandwidth can be eliminated through digital signal processing. If the signal is spread over bandwidth BN then the noise in this bandwidth cannot be avoided. The Processing gain that derives from the redundancy in the transmitted information is (BN/R).

Summary

Analog Modulation PM and FM look the same Digital Modulation Techniques that yield almost square spectra and hence high spectral efficiency. The various modulation techniques have varying effects on the type of RF hardware required.
