Abstract:
The influence of the number of phase quantization levels $L$ on the capacity $C_{M,L}$ of a communication channel with additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) was studied in a communication system using QPSK (4-PSK).
Keywords:channel capacity, information capacity, transition probability matrix, quantization, QPSK (quadrature phase-shift keying) signals, Gaussian function, Owen function.
