1.3 Quadrature Amplitude Modulation (8 QAM)

In Quadrature Amplitude Modulation (QAM) each signal is transmitted as two components. The components are in-phase and quadrature and these components are 90^o phase from each other.

The bit error rate formula of QAM is.

The organization of this report is as follows:

In section 2, we discussed about the background and simulation model for simulation of BPSK, QPSK and 8 QAM with rectangular, SQRC pulse shaping and Hamming code. In section 3 we discussed the result obtained from the simulation. Finally the conclusion is presented in section 4
