# MT Generate System Parameters (MT Generate MSK System Parameters) (G Dataflow)

Version:

Calculates parameters for use with either MT Modulate MSK or MT Demodulate MSK.

## samples per symbol

An even number of samples dedicated to each symbol. Multiply this value by the symbol rate to determine the sample rate.

Note

The demodulation and detector nodes use timing recovery, which is optimized for four or more samples per symbol.

Default: 16

## differential encoding enable

A value that indicates whether to enable differential encoding of the bit stream.

Name Description
disable

Disables bit stream encoding.

enable

Enables bit stream encoding.

Default: enable

## error in

Error conditions that occur before this node runs.

The node responds to this input according to standard error behavior.

Standard Error Behavior

Many nodes provide an error in input and an error out output so that the node can respond to and communicate errors that occur while code is running. The value of error in specifies whether an error occurred before the node runs. Most nodes respond to values of error in in a standard, predictable way.

error in does not contain an error error in contains an error
If no error occurred before the node runs, the node begins execution normally.

If no error occurs while the node runs, it returns no error. If an error does occur while the node runs, it returns that error information as error out.

If an error occurred before the node runs, the node does not execute. Instead, it returns the error in value as error out.

Default: No error

## MSK system parameters

Parameter values defining the MSK system. Wire this parameter to the corresponding system parameters cluster of MT Modulate MSK or MT Demodulate MSK.

### differential encoding enable

A value that indicates whether to enable differential encoding of the bit stream.

Name Description
disable

Disables bit stream encoding.

enable

Enables bit stream encoding.

Default: enable

### samples per symbol

Number of samples per symbol in the modulated output complex waveform.

For error-free operation, the samples per symbol must be an even number. Applying Carson's rule for MSK modulation [peak frequency deviation = 0.25 × symbol rate (Hz)], the 98% MSK bandwidth is given by 0.5 × (1 + r) × symbol rate + peak frequency deviation, where 0 < r ≤ 1 is the filter parameter. To satisfy Nyquist criterion, a good guideline is given by samples per symbol = 2 × ceil(1.5 × bandwidth/symbol rate) to obtain 3× oversampling.

Default: 16

## bits per symbol

Number of bits represented by each symbol. This value is equal to Log 2 (M), where M is the order of the modulation (for example, for 16-MSK, M = 16).

## error out

Error information.

The node produces this output according to standard error behavior.

The value of error in specifies whether an error occurred before the node runs. Most nodes respond to values of error in in a standard, predictable way.

If no error occurs while the node runs, it returns no error. If an error does occur while the node runs, it returns that error information as error out.

If an error occurred before the node runs, the node does not execute. Instead, it returns the error in value as error out.
