Digital Logic Projects

Project Name: Simulation of a Digital Base-Band Communications System with IF Carrier Resources Used: MATLAB, Simulink, Xilinx System Generator for DSP Project Notes: The main objective of this project was to utilize simulation tools for modeling a communications system that is comprised of several subsystems. Not long ago, it could take quite some time to prototype a single industrial product whereas today a concept can be simulated and tested thus yielding meaningful data as to whether a design is feasible for further research and/or development in hardware. This communications system was modeled in MATLAB’s Simulink with Xilinx’s System Generator for DSP. The communications system is comprised of encoder, scrambler, shaping filter, modulation with a carrier signal, and noise exhibited in the channel. This project is currently featured on the UNM Research page at the FPGA Mission Assurance Center
