Detailed Documentation

In this paper, we propose a relatively uncommon simulation algorithm for 16PSK modulation, covering implementations for Gaussian channels, Rayleigh channels, and Linear Time-Invariant (LTI) channels. The implementation includes MATLAB-based simulations with key functions handling constellation mapping, channel modeling, and error rate calculation. Specifically for Rayleigh channel conditions, the algorithm incorporates a comparative analysis of pre-equalization and post-equalization results, utilizing zero-forcing or MMSE equalization algorithms to demonstrate the effectiveness of equalization through BER curves and signal constellation diagrams. Furthermore, the simulation framework allows for extended analysis of bit error rates and signal quality metrics under different channel conditions, employing Monte Carlo simulation methods to comprehensively evaluate algorithm performance across various signal-to-noise ratio scenarios.
