Digital Communication System Fundamentals
A typical digital communication system includes a transmitter, a receiver, and a communication channel. The following figure illustrates the general components of a digital communication system. The transmitter contains blocks for source and channel coding, modulation, simulating real-world signal impairments, and upconversion. The receiver includes blocks for downconversion, matched filtering, equalization, demodulation, and channel and source decoding. You can quantify the results using tools for measurement and visualization.
