Implementation Of The Modified Monte Carlo Technique Using Importance Sampling On The Block Oriented System Simulator, John B. Bennett Dec 1990

Implementation Of The Modified Monte Carlo Technique Using Importance Sampling On The Block Oriented System Simulator, John B. Bennett

Theses and Dissertations

The purpose of this thesis was to implement the Modified Monte Carlo technique using Importance Sampling on the Block Oriented System Simulator (BOSS). Computer simulation techniques of communications systems were reviewed. Next, conventional Monte Carlo techniques and Modified Monte Carlo techniques using Importance Sampling were reviewed. Models of Binary Phase Shift Keying (BPSK) systems using both Monte Carlo techniques were implemented and simulated. Reasons for the model using Importance Sampling not working correctly are postulated. The Monte Carlo technique is a method of ensuring the an inherently infinite procedure, such as determining system bit error rate (BER), can be determined …
