Simulation of a Digital Communication System to Assess the BER in Noisy Channels Using Arduino

EasyChair Preprint 15317

Abstract

In this work, a digital baseband communication system is simulated using the Arduino environment and a C language program. In this program we can adjust several parameters of the transmission system, such as the number of data bits and the noise level in the channel. Then, this C program is used to simulate a noisy channel and calculates the number of error bits during transmission essays. This simulation will serve to calculate and analyze the BER (bit error rate) vs SNR (signal to noise ratio) ratio which is a standard for quality assessments in a digital communications system. In addition, Hamming coding techniques are implemented in the system to allow a comparison between a transmission with and without channel coding.

Keyphrases: BER vs SNR, Noisy Channel, digital communication
