Golay Encoding and Decoding Implementation on BPSK Platform

This research conducts an in-depth investigation of Golay encoding and decoding functionality implemented on a BPSK modulation platform. The implementation typically involves using MATLAB's communication toolbox functions for BPSK modulation (pskmod) combined with custom Golay encoding algorithms that utilize the (24,12) extended Golay code structure. Through detailed analysis of the bit error rate curves generated by comparing transmitted and received signals, the study examines the system's reliability and performance characteristics in signal transmission. The research methodology includes simulating noisy channels using AWGN functions and implementing both hard-decision and soft-decision decoding approaches for the Golay code. This investigation aims to further optimize the Golay encoding and decoding system by enhancing error correction capabilities through improved parity-check matrix implementations and strengthening anti-interference performance using advanced demodulation techniques, thereby meeting the requirements of various application scenarios.
