Amplitude Shift Keying (ASK) Modulation MATLAB Simulation, With MATLAB Code

So what is ASK or Amplitude Shift Keying?
Amplitude-shift keying (ASK) is a form of amplitude modulation (AM) that projects a digital data as variations in the amplitude of a carrier wave (Which is particularly a High Frequency Sinusoidal wave). In an ASK system ,binary symbol 1 is represented by transmitting carrier wave of fixed amplitude and fixed frequency for the bit duration T second, the binary symbol 0 will be represented by not transmitting any wave for another bit duration T seconds.

In the example MATLAB Simulation of Amplitude Shift Keying (ASK), the user is asked about the frequency of the carrier wave, binary message periodic pulse & the amplitude of the waves (considering both square message wave & carrier wave have equal amplitude).

The MATLAB code lets the user to plot 3 graphs, namely of The Carrier Wave (Sinusoid), The Binary Message Pulse & The Amplitude Shift Keyed Wave.

MATLAB Code FOR ASK (Amplitude Shift Keying) :

clc %for clearing the command window
close all
%for closing all the window except command window
clear all
%for deleting all the variables from the memory
fc=input('Enter the freq of Sine Wave carrier:');
fp=input('Enter the freq of Periodic Binary pulse (Message):');
amp=input('Enter the amplitude (For Carrier & Binary Pulse Message):');
t=0:0.001:1;
% For setting the sampling interval
c=amp.*sin(2*pi*fc*t);
% For Generating Carrier Sine wave

%For Plotting The Carrier wave

m=amp/2.*square(2*pi*fp*t)+(amp/2);
%For Generating Square wave message

%For Plotting The Square Binary Pulse (Message)

% The Shift Keyed Wave

%For Plotting The Amplitude Shift Keyed Wave

NOTE: Use Semicolon ';' in order to suppress the output from coming to the MATLAB's Command Window, whenever declaring a periodic pulse, as it can display a vary large matrix in the output, so you can miss what you want.


INPUTS GIVEN TO GENERATE ASK MODULATED WAVE:
Enter the freq of Sine Wave carrier:100
Enter the freq of Periodic Binary pulse (Message):10
Enter the amplitude (For Both Carrier & Binary Pulse Message):4
