- Find Va and Vb using Nodal analysisarrow_forward4. A battery operated sensor transmits to a receiver that is plugged in to a power outlet. The device is continuously operated. The battery is a 3.6 V coin-cell battery with a 245mAHr capacity. The application requires a bit rate of 36 Mbps and an error rate of less than 10^-3. The channel has a center frequency of 2.4 GHz, a bandwidth of 10 MHz and a noise power spectral density of 10^-14 W/Hz. The maximum distance is 36 meters and the losses in the channel attenuates the signal by 0.25 dB/meter. Your company has two families of chips that you can use. An M-ary ASK and an M-ary QAM chip. The have very different power requirements as shown in the table below. The total current for the system is the current required to achieve the desired Eb/No PLUS the current identified below: Hokies PSK Chip Set Operating Current NOT Including the required Eb/No for the application Hokies QAM Chip Set Operating Current NOT Including the required Eb/No for the application Chip ID M-ary Voltage (volts)…arrow_forwardUsing the 802.11a specifications given below, in Matlab (or similar tool) create the time domain signal for one OFDM symbol using QPSK modulation.
