IQ imbalance impairment in MATLAB

This section of MATLAB source code covers IQ imbalance impairment and IQ amplitude and phase imbalance effect on constellation diagram using matlab code.

Part A and PART C of the matlab code is same as mentioned on AWGN page.

Source code-PART B

IQ_amp_imb = input('Enter IQ amplitude imbalance(default:0.03):'); % amplitude imbalance
IQ_phase_imb = input('Enter IQ phase imbalance(default:0.03):'); % phase imbalance
N = size(mapper_out_ori);
IQ_amp_imb = IQ_amp_imb.*randn(1,N); % linear value (not in %)
IQ_phase_imb = IQ_phase_imb*2.*(rand(1,N)-0.5); % in radians
mapper_out=mapper_out';
for i=1:N
alph = cos(IQ_phase_imb(i))-j*sin(IQ_phase_imb(i))*IQ_amp_imb(i);
beta = IQ_amp_imb(i)*cos(IQ_phase_imb(i))+j*sin(IQ_phase_imb(i));
out(:,i) = alph*mapper_out(:,i)+beta*conj(mapper_out(:,i));
end
figure;plot(real(out),imag(out),'b+');title('constellation with IQ imbalance');
