ABSTRACT
The mini project we are presenting here aims to simulate an 8PSK modulator in MATLAB and also to verify and optimize it for various specifications. This is going to be a continuous process in which we will be translating the MATLAB code to a VHDL code for implementing on an FPGA kit.

OBJECTIVES :
To design the block diagram of an 8PSK Modulator. To implement the same in MATLAB.

To optimize the MATLAB code and tabulate the results.

To prepare a project report containing the detailed design and technology used for successful completion of the project.

PHASE SHIFT KEYING(PSK) :

Phase shift Keying, PSK is a form of modulation used particularly for data transmissions. It offers an effective way of transmitting data. By altering the number of different phase states which can be adopted, the data speeds that can be achieved within a given channel can be increased, but at the cost of lower resilience to noise interference. In order to enable data to be transmitted in a form of phase modulation known as Octonary Phase Shift Keying, 8PSK is used.

Dont know what heading to put here

8PSK is being used in Enhanced Data rates for GSM Evolution (EDGE) (also known as Enhanced GPRS (EGPRS), or IMT Single Carrier (IMT-SC), or Enhanced Data rates for Global Evolution) which is a digital mobile phone technology that allows improved data transmission rates as a backward compatible extension of GSM. EDGE is considered a pre-3G radio technology and is part of ITUs 3G definition. EDGE was deployed on GSM networks beginning in 2003 initially by Cingular (now AT&T) in the United States. EDGE is standardized also by 3GPP as part of the GSM family.

8PSK MODULATION SCHEME :

With EDGE, a new modulation scheme is applied: 8PSK (phase shift keying), i.e. three bits per RF modulated symbol as opposed to the original one bit per symbol in GPRS. This technology change triples the effective data rate for EDGE resulting in a peak date rate of 59.2 Kbit/s per time slot.

EXPECTED OUTCOME :

At the end of the project the deliverables are:

1. Software Report
2. Simulation Results MATLAB 3. Understanding the Design 4. Project Report
