摘要: Demodulation of M-ary quadrature amplitude modulation (M-QAM) requires the receiver to estimate phase and received signal. The demodulator performance is sensitive errors in these estimates, sensitivity increases as M increases. We examine effects on QAM communication systems with error-control coding soft-decision decoding. A mathematical analysis presented for two decoding metrics. Performance comparisons are given 16-QAM 64-QAM errorcontrol techniques
