INTERPRETATION:

Based on the data we gathered, there were two input signal that enter in the system. First
is the carrier and bipolar bit stream which produces in sequence generator. After producing the
two signal they combined each other by the use of the multiplier. Based on the waveform that we
collected, it appears that when the sine wave carrier takes two phase reversals such as 0 degree
and 180 degrees. The state of each bit is determined according to the state of the preceding bit. If
the phase of the wave does not change, then the signal state stays the same (0 or 1). If the phase of
the wave changes by 180 degrees -- that is, if the phase reverses -- then the signal state changes
(from 0 to 1, or from 1 to 0). Because there are two possible wave phases, BPSK is sometimes
called biphase modulation.

CONCLUSION:

In conclusion, Phase-shift keying (PSK) is a method of digital communication in which the

phase of a transmitted signal is varied to convey information. Aside from BPSK, they are other
forms of phase shift keying just like the Quadrature Phase Shift Keying (QPSK) which the sine
wave carrier takes four phase reversals such as 0°, 90°, 180°, and 270°, Offset Quadrature Phase
Shift Keying (O-QPSK) which the signal carrier-wave phase transition is always 90 degrees or 1/4
cycle at a time, 8 Point Phase Shift Keying (8 Point Phase Shift Keying) and 16 Point Phase Shift
Keying (16 PSK).
