Abstract

With the ever-growing demand for faster and cleaner wireless communication systems, designs for such systems are becoming more and more complex as they account for hardware limitations, modulation techniques, and Rician fading. This project is aimed at developing a system-level architecture for specifically a mobile-wireless user, focusing on the Physical Downlink Shared Channel (PDSCH). With requirements and constraints already specified by the advising faculty, a simulation reference system has been implemented on MATLAB for PDSCH subject to Rician flat fading, while a demodulator with QPSK modulation has been designed. Existing designs of considerably similar focuses were referred to setting it up. Setting different values to the Rician flat-fading channel, the comparison between simulated and theoretical values of the raw bit error-rate will be used to judge the performance of the design. It is expected that with repeated iterations and troubleshooting, an optimized design will be determined MATLAB that meets all requirements.
