Brief Overview
Compares different Quadrature Amplitude Modulation (QAM) techniques at different bit rates (8,16, 32, 64 and 256) based on the Bit Error Rate (BER) versus the Ratio of Bit Energy to Noise Power Spectral Density (Eb/No).
Comparison between the resulting transmission errors in the received signal at different noise or Eb/No levels.
Model simulates the impact of changing the power of the applied noise (AWGN) during the transmission process.
Bit error rate, BER is applicable to radio data links as well as fiber optic data systems, Ethernet.
Any system that transmits data over a network of some form where noise, interference, and phase jitter may cause degradation of the digital signal.
AWGN is commonly used to simulate background noise of the channel under study.

Conclusion• It demonstrates the utilization of the BERTool in
evaluating and comparing the performance of the different QAM techniques.
• Discusses the proportional relation between the power of the input signal and the noise variance implemented by the added white Gaussian noise component.
• It provides a way to simulate the performance of these communication techniques along with using the BERTool in performing the evaluation phase in this model.
