Communications Blockset Release Notes

New Demos

The Communications Blockset contains eleven new demos for Version 2.5. These include a large-scale demo model of a commercial application of a third generation (3G) wireless system using wide-band code division multiple access (WCDMA). The demo presents an end-to-end transmission between a base station and a mobile station, as specified by the Third Generation Partnership Project (3GPP).

The new demos are as follows:

• WCDMA End-to-End Physical Layer Demo
• WCDMA Coding and Multiplexing Demo
• WCDMA Spreading and Modulation Demo
• RF Satellite Link Demo
• HiperLAN/2 Demo
• Bluetooth Voice Transmission Demo
• Adaptive Equalization Demo
• CPM Phase Tree Demo
• GMSK vs. MSK Demo
• Filtered QPSK vs. MSK Demo
• Raleigh Fading Channel Demo

Enhancements to CPM Modulator Block

The CPM modulator block now enables you to specify both the entire pulse length and the pulse main lobe length when simulating an LSRC frequency pulse length. This feature enables you to simulate a modulation such as 3SRC6.
