Decision criterion
Using Bayes rule, one can have
𝑝 (r∣s𝑖 ) 𝑝 (s𝑖 )
𝑝 (s𝑖 ∣r) = . (28)
𝑝 (r)
To minimize error probability, the receiver output 𝑚 ˆ = 𝑚𝑖
corresponds to the constellation point s𝑖 that maximizes
𝑝 (s𝑖 ∣r), i.e., the detected transmitted constellation point ŝ
can be determined by
𝑝 (r∣s𝑖 ) 𝑝 (s𝑖 )
ŝ = arg max = arg max 𝑝 (r∣s𝑖 ) 𝑝 (s𝑖 ) , 𝑖 = 1, ..., 𝑀

(29)
where the second equality follows from the fact that 𝑝(r) is
not a function of s𝑖

Passband modulation
General principles
𝑠(𝑡) = 𝛼(𝑡) cos [2𝜋 (𝑓𝑐 + 𝑓 (𝑡)) + 𝜃(𝑡) + 𝜙0 ] = 𝛼(𝑡) cos [2𝜋𝑓𝑐 𝑡 + 𝜙(𝑡) + 𝜙0 ]
where 𝜙(𝑡) = 2𝜋𝑓 (𝑡)𝑡 + 𝜃(𝑡) and 𝜙0 is the phase offset of the
carrier. This representation combines frequency and phase
modulation into angle modulation.
One can rewrite the right-hand side of (44) in terms of its in-phase
and quadrature components as:
𝑠(𝑡) = 𝛼(𝑡) cos 𝜙(𝑡) cos [2𝜋𝑓𝑐 𝑡] − 𝛼(𝑡) sin 𝜙(𝑡) sin [2𝜋𝑓𝑐 𝑡]
= 𝑠𝐼 (𝑡) cos [2𝜋𝑓𝑐 𝑡] − 𝑠𝑄 (𝑡) sin [2𝜋𝑓𝑐 𝑡] (44)
where 𝑠𝐼 (𝑡) = 𝛼(𝑡) cos 𝜙(𝑡) is called the in-phase component of 𝑠(𝑡)
and 𝑠𝑄 (𝑡) = 𝛼(𝑡) sin 𝜙(𝑡) is called its quadrature component.
To send the 𝑖th message over the time interval [𝑘𝑇, (𝑘 + 1)𝑇 ),
we set 𝑠𝐼 (𝑡) = 𝑠𝑖,1 𝑔(𝑡) and 𝑠𝑄 (𝑡) = 𝑠𝑖,2 𝑔(𝑡). These in-phase
and quadrature signal components are baseband signals with
spectral characteristics determined by the pulse shape 𝑔(𝑡).
In particular, their bandwidth 𝐵 equals the bandwidth of g(t),
and the transmitted signal 𝑠(𝑡) is a passband signal with
center frequency fc and passband bandwidth 2𝐵.
In practice we take 𝐵 = 𝐾𝑔 /𝑇𝑠 where 𝐾𝑔 depends on the
pulse shape: for rectangular pulses 𝐾𝑔 = .5 and for raised
cosine pulses .5 ≤ 𝐾𝑔 ≤ 1.
Thus, for rectangular pulses the bandwidth of 𝑔(𝑡) is .5/𝑇𝑠
and the bandwidth of 𝑠(𝑡) is 1/𝑇𝑠 .
Since the pulse shape 𝑔(𝑡) is fixed, the signal constellation for
amplitude and phase modulation is defined based on the
constellation point: (𝑠𝑖,1 , 𝑠𝑖,2 ) ∈ ℝ2 , 𝑖 = 1, ..., 𝑀 .
The complex baseband representation of 𝑠(𝑡) is
[ ]
𝑠(𝑡) = Re 𝑥(𝑡)𝑒𝑗𝜙0 𝑒𝑗2𝜋𝑓𝑐 𝑡 (47)
where:
𝑥(𝑡) = 𝑠𝐼 (𝑡) + 𝑗𝑠𝑄 (𝑡) = (𝑠𝑖,1 + 𝑗𝑠𝑖,2 ) 𝑔(𝑡).
The constellation point s𝑖 = (𝑠𝑖,1 , 𝑠𝑖,2 ) is called the symbol
associated with the log2 𝑀 bits and
𝑇𝑠 is called the symbol time and the bit rate for this
modulation is 𝐾 bits per symbol or 𝑅 = log2 𝑀/𝑇𝑠 bits per
second.

One can see that MPAM has only a single basis function
𝜙1 (𝑡) = 𝑔(𝑡) cos(2𝜋𝑓𝑐 𝑡).
Thus, the coherent demodulator for MPAM reduces to the
demodulator shown in the next figure, where the
multi-threshold device maps 𝑥 to a decision region 𝑍𝑖 and
outputs the corresponding bit sequence

2𝜋(𝑖−1) 2𝜋(𝑖−1)
𝑠𝑖,1 = 𝐴 cos 𝑀 and 𝑠𝑖,2 = 𝐴 sin 𝑀 for
𝑖 = 1, ..., 𝑀 . 𝜃𝑖 = 2𝜋(𝑖−1)
𝑀 , 𝑖 = 1, 2, ..., 𝑀 = 2𝐾 are the
different phases in the signal constellation points that convey
the information bits.
The minimum distance between constellation points is
𝑑𝑚𝑖𝑛 = 2𝐴 sin(𝜋/𝑀 ), where 𝐴 is typically a function of the
signal energy.
2PSK is often referred to as binary PSK or BPSK, while 4PSK
is often called quadrature phase shift keying (QPSK), and is
the same as MQAM with 𝑀 = 4 which is defined below.
