I want to plot Eb/N0 vs BER bpsk demodulation in Matlab. I am using BPSK modulated signal @ carrier frequencey 8KHz, data rate 1KHz. Sampling rate is set I have tried to use awgn function for adding noise. This signal accepts Signal to noise ratio (SNR)in parameters. In order to convert into Eb/N0 for BPSK signal. I have used following relation SNR = Eb/N0 + 10log(R/B) (This formula i have seen for Base Band signal does it work for band pass as well) R=data rate (1KHz in our case) B= channel width (I have found in some literature that B=sampling rate=96000Hz in our case) For Eb/ N0=0 dB SNR appears to be -19.22dB When I plot Eb/No using these values, result differ from ideal bpsk plot Can anybody suggest mistake in this procedure? Thanks, Avais
