    Syntax

    y = bocmod(x,m,n)
    y = bocmod(x,m,n,halfcyclesps)
    y = bocmod(x,m,n,halfcyclesps,phasing)

    Description

    y = bocmod(x,m,n) performs binary offset carrier (BOC) modulation on the input bits x by using a square wave and returns the modulated symbols y. m is the square wave frequency indicator. n is the input bit rate indicator.

    By default, the phasing of the square wave is set to the phase of the sine curve.

    example

    y = bocmod(x,m,n,halfcyclesps) specifies the number of samples per half cycle of the square wave.

    y = bocmod(x,m,n,halfcyclesps,phasing) specifies the phase of the square wave.

    Open Live Script

    Generate a random stream of input data bits to modulate.

    numBits = 5;
bits = randi([0,1],numBits,1);

    Set the values of m and n for the subcarrier square wave.

    m = 2; % Square wave frequency is m*1.023e6 Hz
n = 2; % Square wave input bit rate is n*1.023e6 Hz

    Modulate the input bits with the square wave using the BOC modulation technique.

    sym = bocmod(bits,m,n) % Default phasing is of a sine curve
    sym = 20×1

    Generate a random stream of input data bits to modulate.

    numBits = 10;
bits = randi([0,1],numBits,1);

    Set the values of m and n for the subcarrier square wave. Also specify the number of samples per square wave half cycle, spshc.

    m = 5;
n = 2;
spshc = 4;

    Modulate the input bits with the square wave using the BOC modulation technique.

    sym = bocmod(bits,m,n,spshc,"cos");

    Input Arguments

    collapse all

    Input bits, specified as a column vector of binary values.

    The function maps an input bit value of 0 to +1 and an input bit value of 1 to -1. It then multiplies the mapped symbols with a square wave by using the BOC modulation technique.

    Data Types: double | int8 | logical

    Square wave frequency indicator, specified as a positive scalar.

    The frequency of square wave is m*1.023e6 Hz.

    Note

    The value of 2*m/n must always be an integer. This value represents the number of square wave half cycles per input bit, x.

    Data Types: double

    Input bit rate indicator, specified as a positive scalar.

    The input bit rate is n*1.023e6 Hz.

    Data Types: double

    Number of samples per half cycle of the square wave, specified as an integer greater than or equal to 2.

    Data Types: double | uint8

    Phase of the square wave, specified as "sin" or "cos".

    • "sin" — Set the phase of the square wave to the phase of a sine curve.

    • "cos" — Set the phase of the square wave to the phase of a cosine curve.

    Data Types: char | string

    Output Arguments

    collapse all

    BOC modulated symbols, returned as a column vector with values +1 or -1. The length of the vector is equal to length(x)*halfcyclesps*2*m/n.

    The data type of the returned modulated symbols is same as that of the input bits, x.
