Getting Started

Running a Simulink Model

This section describes a demo model of a communications system that comes with the Communications Blockset. The model displays a scatter plot of a signal with added noise. The purpose of this section is to familiarize you with the basics of Simulink models and how they function.

The section takes you through some key elements of working with this model, including

• Opening the Model
• Overview of the Model
• Quadrature Amplitude Modulation
• Running a Simulation
• Displaying the Error Rate
• Setting Block Parameters
• Displaying a Plot of Phase Noise
