ABSTRACT
In this paper, we use the Matlab software to implement the physical layer transceiver architecture of Digital Video
Broadcasting Terrestrial (DVB-T) system, with additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) is inserted during the signal
transmission. The signal is transmitted through the processes of modulation, demodulation, encoding and decoding.
The received signals are finally decoded and compared with the transmitted signals to calculate the system Bit Error
rate (BER). Three different modulation formats, QPSK, 16-QAM, 64-QAM, are considered and their system
performances are compared with different Signal to Noise (SNR) situations. We furthermore simulate and compare
the system performances by implementing or without including certain coding and decoding techniques, such as
Convolutional Code, Viterbi Decoder and Reed Solomon Code, in the DVB-T system.
