Communications Toolbox Tutorial



What Is the Communications Toolbox

The Communications Toolbox is a collection of MATLAB functions and SIMULINK blocks for communication analysis, synthesis, and simulation. The functionality of the MATLAB functions and SIMULINK blocks overlap each other in most cases. This tutorial provides a brief description of the functionalities and examples of the toolbox.

The toolbox provides a few practical examples that show how to use the toolbox in applications.

The toolbox includes a graphical user interface example for error-rate calculation. See the on-line help for commgui for more information about the example.

How to Use the Communications Toolbox

You can open the SIMULINK block library by typing commlib from the MATLAB prompt. Type help comm in the MATLAB workspace to view a list of all MATLAB functions. Type hthelp commhelp to show the MATLAB html format help files in this window.
