Microwave Wireless Communication Link Base Band Part

This thesis was completed as a part of the project "Microwave wireless Communication Link". In this thesis, the requirements to develop base band part for the transceiver were studied, including, usage of proper hardware equipment as well as software programming. A signal injector performed as a hardware interface between the Analog part and the Digital (base band) part of the tranceiver, whereas, a PCI card acted as a data acquisition device for base band part. A programming language was required to build such a software, able to successfully represent a transmitter and a receiver. All the features were found in Labview (Laboratory Virtual Instrument Engineering Workbench) introduced by National Instruments in 1980s. A modern version of Labview i.e. version 7.1, was used in this thesis, it views the software as a virtual instrument to automate and measure the values passed from the connected hardware. Labview provides a graphical development environment, which is modular and parallel in nature, and uses an efficient G compiler. A coherent base band receiver using matched filter was implemented, and a base band transmitter using NRZ-L digital encoding scheme and QPSK modulation scheme was developed
