Summary

This blog demonstrates a Simulink implementation of single-sideband (SSB) demodulation based on Richard Lyons' "phasing method," showing how to build and test a Hilbert-transform-based SSB receiver in MATLAB/Simulink. Readers will see simulation setups, filter and Hilbert-transform design choices, and examples that illustrate performance under carrier offsets and phasing errors.

Key Takeaways

• Build a Simulink model of the phasing-method SSB demodulator using Hilbert transforms and quadrature mixing.
• Tune and implement bandpass and Hilbert filters to minimize image and distortion in recovered audio.
• Simulate carrier frequency and phase offsets and evaluate demodulator robustness with FFT-based spectral checks.
• Visualize time- and frequency-domain signals in Simulink to diagnose phasing errors and optimize recovery.
