Detailed Description

BPSK modulator with complex symbols.

This is a special version of the PSK modulator with $M = 2$ constellation points. The following bit to symbol mapping is used:

Beside hard demapping, this class can also perform soft demodulation, calculating the log-MAP estimate of the individual bits. To use it properly the received symbols should be equal to:

\[r_k = c_k s_k + n_k,\]

where $c_k$ is the real or complex channel gain, $s_k$ is the transmitted constellation symbol, and $n_k$ is the AWGN of the channel (with variance $N_0$).

It is also assumed that the channel estimates are perfect when calculating the soft bits.

Note
Although constellation points of the BPSK modulator can be represented in the real domain only, this class uses complex signals to be compatible with other PSK and QAM based modulators.

void itpp::BPSK_c::demodulate_soft_bits ( const cvec &  rx_symbols,
double  N0,
vec &  soft_bits,
Soft_Method  method = LOGMAP 
) const
virtual

Soft demodulator for AWGN channel.

This function calculates the log-MAP estimate assuming equally likely bits transmitted:

\[\log \left( \frac{P(b=0|r)}{P(b=1|r)} \right) = \frac{4 \Re\{r\}} {N_0}\]

Parameters
rx_symbolsThe received noisy constellation symbols, $r$ (complex but symbols in real part)
N0The spectral density of the AWGN noise, $n$
soft_bitsThe soft bits calculated using the expression above
methodThe method used for demodulation (LOGMAP or APPROX)
Note
For soft demodulation it is suggested to use the N-dimensional modulator (Modulator_ND) instead, which is based on the QLLR (quantized) arithmetic and therefore is faster. Please note, however, that mixed use of Modulator_1D/Modulator_2D and Modulator_ND is not advised.

virtual ivec itpp::Modulator< std::complex< double > >::get_bits2symbols ( ) const
inlinevirtualinherited

Get the bitmap, which maps input bits into symbols.

The mapping is done as follows. An input bit sequence in decimal notation is used for indexing the bits2symbols table. The indexing result denotes the symbol to be used from the symbols table, e.g.:

PSK mod(8); // assume 8-PSK modulator
cvec sym = mod.get_symbols();
ivec bits2sym = mod.get_bits2symbols();
bvec in_bits = "100" // input bits
int d = bin2dec(in_bits); // decimal representation of in_bits = 4
// mapping of d into PSK symbol using bits2sym and sym tables
std::complex<double> out_symbol = sym(bits2sym(d));

Soft demodulator for AWGN channels.

This function calculates the log-likelihood ratio (LLR) of the received signal from AWGN channels. Depending on the soft demodulation method chosen, either full log-MAP calculation is performed (default method), according to the following equation:

\[\log \left( \frac{P(b_i=0|r)}{P(b_i=1|r)} \right) = \log \left( \frac{\sum_{s_i \in S_0} \exp \left( -\frac{|r_k - s_i|^2}{N_0} \right)} {\sum_{s_i \in S_1} \exp \left( -\frac{|r_k - s_i|^2}{N_0} \right)} \right) \]

or approximate, but faster calculation is performed.

The approximate method finds for each bit the closest constellation points that have zero and one in the corresponding position. Let $d_0 = |r_k - s_0|$ denote the distance to the closest zero point and $d_1 = |r_k - s_1|$ denote the distance to the closest one point for the corresponding bit respectively. The approximate algorithm then computes

\[\frac{d_1^2 - d_0^2}{N_0}\]

This function can be used on channels where the channel gain $c_k = 1$.

When this function is to be used together with MAP-based turbo decoding algorithms then the channel reliability factor $L_c$ of the turbo decoder shall be set to 1. The output from this function can also be used by a Viterbi decoder using an AWGN based metric calculation function.
