Description
Summary:In wireless networks signal’s security from noise has been a very challenging issue, primarily because of the broadcast nature of communication. This paper focuses on digitized Quaternion Modulation (QM) which gives better performance as compared to QPSK, QAM and QFSK. We compare the performance of quaternion modulation with other modulation schemes in terms of BER using idealistic Additive White Gaussian Noise AWGN channel. This scheme can be used in applications such as Global Positioning System (GPS), satellite and space communication system to reduce errors. The simulation results show superior performance of the proposed digitized Quaternion Modulation over its counterparts. Thus one may trade off bandwidth for BER.
