Analysis of the BER performance of the robust and fast modulator mode of the eCall standard in the AWGN channel

Generate a waveform and run it through the modulator in both, robust modulator mode and fast modulator mode in an AWGN channel, compare the Bit Error Rate performance of the input wave form and the output waveform after de-modulation by comparing the bits. Plot the BER performance for both the modulator modes and compare them.

Understanding of the GSM vocoder for the 3gpp eCall using the TS 26.073 standard Record your voice on a computer in a digital file. Play the file through the speaker on the computer and hear the quality of the recording, and then run the digital voice signal through the AMR vocoder at different rates. Play the vocoder output file through the speaker, and hear the quality of the recording. Identify the difference in the sound quality for different rates and measure the signal-to-distortion power ratio of the vocoder output signal for different code rates.

Developed a transmitter and receiver for an OFDM system for video broadcasting using MATLAB Analysis of amplitude distortions happening in an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) signal at communication receivers. Amplitude distortion causes inter-carrier interference (ICI).We implement an algorithm to reduce the amplitude distortions in a Gaussian channel and a Typical Urban six path (TU6) channel.

Implementation of Steganography in images

The main objective of the project is to embed high number of bits i.e achieve high hiding capacity, while maintaining the perceptiveness of the image. The main motive is to improve the embedding capacity of an image that has been achieved already or previously till now which used similar methods to the one that has been made use in this project and provide an imperceptible stego-image quality simultaneously and also to introduce the randomness while embedding the data.

Development of transmitter and receiver for QPSK and OQPSK system In this project we implement quadrature phase shift keying (QPSK) and offset quadrature phase shift keying

(OQPSK) end-to-end digital transmitter/receiver. The digital transmitter in our project randomly generates binary data, which is then modulated using QPSK and OQPSK. This signal is then received by the digital receiver, which performs multiple operations to recover the transmitted signal. The focus of our project was the MATLAB implementation of the digital transmitter/receiver. In our simulations, we will incorporate distortion at the receiver to check the effectiveness of the matched filter to overcome the distortions.

Implementation of various kinds of filters for images using MATLAB In this project we compute the mean and standard deviation of an image using histogram. Reduce the number of gray levels in the power of 2. Zooming and shrinking the image using nearest neighbor and bilinear interpolation, adjust image contrast and brightness using the intensity transformation techniques. Sharpening and smoothening of an image using various kinds of filters. Reduction of noise in an image using various filters used in image processing such as Mean filters, Order Statistic filters, adaptive filters. References furnished upon request
