Instantaneous Frequency Measurement
Measuring carrier frequency quickly and with minimal data matters in radar and signal characterization. Parth Vakil explains the delay-and-multiply instantaneous frequency measurement technique, shows how analytic signals and multiple delays resolve the 2π ambiguity, and demonstrates noise, phase-wrapping, and interferer effects using MATLAB code. He also outlines practical mitigations like phase unwrapping and channelization.
Modelling a Noisy Communication Signal in MATLAB for the Analog to Digital Conversion Process
Practical signal modeling treats receiver noise as a fixed power source, not something tied to the transmitted waveform. Parth demonstrates why using MATLAB's awgn(sig,SNR,'measured') can misrepresent an analog front end and provides a short function that scales your signal so the added AWGN produces the desired receiver noise variance. This prepares realistic inputs for upcoming ADC simulations.
Hello and Introduction
Hello all.
I would like to take this chance to talk a little about what I am going to try and do in this blog. While working in the field, I have come across some interesting techniques. It has, at times, taken some time and effort to understand these techniques. Ever since I was a kid, I have overestimated my capacity to remember everything that I learn. So, I had decided to start keeping a journal of all the techniques that started to make sense. This blog provides a great way for me to...
