Summary of "Binary Phase Shift Keying (BPSK) - Constellation Diagram"

This video explains the fundamentals of Binary Phase Shift Keying (BPSK), a digital modulation technique where the phase of a carrier signal is shifted to represent binary data. The main concepts and methodology discussed include:

Main Ideas and Concepts

• Digital Modulation Techniques Overview:
  • Mentions different digital modulation methods such as Frequency Shift Keying (FSK) and Phase Shift Keying (PSK).
  • Focuses on BPSK, where the phase of the carrier signal is shifted to encode binary data.
• Phase Shift in BPSK:
  • BPSK modulates the carrier signal by shifting its phase by 180° to represent binary bits.
  • Binary '1' and '0' correspond to two distinct phases separated by 180°.
  • This phase difference enables the representation of two levels of data.
• Mathematical Representation of BPSK Signal:
  • The modulated signal for binary '1' and '0' can be expressed as:
    • \( s_1(t) = \sqrt{\frac{2E_b}{T_b}} \cos(2\pi f_c t) \) for one bit value.
    • \( s_2(t) = \sqrt{\frac{2E_b}{T_b}} \cos(2\pi f_c t + \pi) \) for the other bit value (180° phase shift).
  • Here, \(E_b\) is the energy per bit, \(T_b\) is the bit duration, and \(f_c\) is the Carrier Frequency.
• Carrier Frequency and Bit Duration:
  • Carrier Frequency \(f_c\) is inversely proportional to time.
  • The number of cycles \(n\) during bit duration \(T_b\) is \( n = f_c \times T_b \).
• Basis Functions:
  • The signal space representation uses Basis Functions.
  • For BPSK, there is one orthonormal basis function defined as:
    • \( \phi_1(t) = \sqrt{\frac{2}{T_b}} \cos(2\pi f_c t) \)
  • The modulated signals can be represented as vectors in signal space using these Basis Functions.
• Constellation Diagram:
  • BPSK has a Constellation Diagram with two points representing the two phases (0° and 180°).
  • These points lie on the real axis, separated by a distance corresponding to the energy per bit.
  • The Constellation Diagram visually represents the phase shifts corresponding to binary data.

Methodology / Step-by-step Explanation

• Step 1: Understand the carrier signal and its frequency \(f_c\).
• Step 2: Represent binary data bits as phase shifts of the carrier:
  • Bit '0' → Phase 0°
  • Bit '1' → Phase 180°
• Step 3: Write the modulated BPSK signals mathematically using cosine functions with appropriate phase shifts.
• Step 4: Define the energy per bit \(E_b\) and bit duration \(T_b\).
• Step 5: Express the signals in terms of orthonormal Basis Functions for signal space representation.
• Step 6: Plot the Constellation Diagram with two points corresponding to the two phases.
• Step 7: Use the Constellation Diagram to visualize and analyze BPSK modulation.
