Communications Blockset

Using the Libraries

This chapter describes and illustrates how to model communication techniques using the blocks in the Communications Blockset. The first section, Signal Support, discusses the types of signals that this blockset supports. Each subsequent section corresponds to one of the core libraries within the Communications Blockset. These sections are:

• Communications Sources
• Communications Sinks
• Source Coding
• Block Coding
• Convolutional Coding
• Cyclic Redundancy Check Coding
• Interleaving
• Analog Modulation
• Digital Modulation
• Channels
• RF Impairments
• Synchronization

For descriptions of individual blocks, see their reference entries. For background or theoretical information about communications techniques, see the works listed in the "Selected Bibliography..." sections that appear in this chapter.
