How do the closer APSK values work? I've only used QAM, the circle closest to 0,0 looks like it's got to have such high SNR.
Youd only use 128 APSK with a stupid high SNR, so it wouldn't be too much of an issue more generally. But most constellations ive worked with typically have a smaller number of symbols in the center and spread out further from the core
Kribbles vent
Sure, that makes sense. What's the benefit of having those close nodes when you could space it out more at the higher values? Like the node at (-20uV, -10.5uV) has a lot of wiggle room between any others while the ones in the middle don't. Again, I've never done APSK so I don't know the benefit, genuinely asking!

Nah, I mean typically they do have them spaced out better. So im not sure why they opted for this other than it potentially being easier to detect angle and amplitude separately somehow

had a phijkchu dream that some new member posted an image but they edited rusps name into it trying to be like "wow this is a crazy coincidence!"

This is not taught in the course at all
This is how our professors caught us cheating instantly. We would look up the question, find some complicated answer on Chegg, and she asked us to solve the question on the chalkboard in front of the class to watch us fumble and embarrass ourselves.
Kribbles vent
Yeah, it's also important that the professor is actually good and not some idiot grad student who shits out homework questions even he doesn't know how to solve. For those courses, I cheated to hell just to pass.
Kribbles vent
Oh, I'm going on a tangent here but we had a professor who would mark us down if we didn't explain the answer enough and mark us down if we explained the answer too much. I fuckin hated that guy but I learned so much from his class.
Kribbles vent
Yeah, another professor had a "no core dump" rule which was that he would mark us down if we just splurged every bit of info we know about the topic and hoped one of those points was the right thing. That one makes sense.

i want to make a minecraft mod that makes looping (torus) worlds, so I have been looking through the source code. Java really sucks as a language.

Feel cursed, Went to a confession booth today and choked, metaphorically speaking. Ended up confessing more sins to the muslim taxi driver on the way home than I did to the catholic priest.
Kribbles vent
Any time I move (twice) I always pick the shittiest fucking places. I swear, I'm so retarded. I'm in an apartment with all mexicans, and it's nice chatting with them, but fuck me. I wish racial stereotypes weren't true where mexicans just live in dumps and they're fine with it, but I got roaches and every room besides the bathroom has cigarette smell and I can see the open windows have a thick layer of soot.
Kribbles vent
I did have my buddy do a proxy walkthrough, but yeah, he is basically deaf and has no sense of smell. He also thought I had lower standards (I don't want to shoo away roaches off my bananas). Anyway, yeah, I've been real pissy these past few days.
Kribbles vent
I understand the few bugs that hide in your house when it gets colder & spiders always get in. I got adult german roaches which are infestations unfortunately
Polar_ vent
You should invest in a bunch of chickens, they will eat the roaches. They have the added benefit of free eggs! Nothing could go wrong
