Viterbi译码算法在GMSK系统中的性能分析

通过研究译码软、硬判决实现理论,比较在GMSK系统中两种判决对误码率的差别,在Simulink中设计基于GMSK调制方式、卷积编码、软判决与硬判决译码相对比的通信仿真系统,分析不同信噪比对误码率的影响.仿真结果证明了所建立系统的正确性,说明使用GMSK调制方式,在误码率为10-3 -10-2区间内,使用软判决要比硬判决译码提升信噪比约3 dB.因此,数传电台采用Viterbi译码是保证地震信号传输质量的有效方法.

Performance analysis on transmission of seismic data with the Viterbi decoder algorithm in the GMSK system

GMSK modulation and Viterhi decoding are generally applied in the CDDM-1A data radio used to transmit seismic data. Viterbi decoding is a maximum likelihood decode algorithm, the complexity of which is independent of channel quality. GMSK is a widely applied modulation mode in radio systems. By studying the implementation theory of the software and hardware decision algorithms of the Viterbi decoding, and comparing the error rates of the two decisions in the GMSK system, this paper establishes a complete communication simulation system based on GMSK modulation, convolutional code and comparing of the software and hardware decision algorithms of the Viterbi decoder in the Simulink, to analyze the im- pact of different SNRs on error rates. The simulation results prove the validity of the system established, and demonstrate that using GMSK modulation, at error rates ranging from 10 a to 10.2 , the software decision improves SNR by 3 dB than that of the hardware decision. Therefore, Viterbi decoding can he used by the radio system to ensure the transmission quality of seismic data.
