I am having hard time trying to find the difference between rcosine and rcosfir. I want to use the Square Root of Raised Cosine Function as the shaping pulse for my QPSK signal. I am wondering what functions should I use and how?

Hi, you can use 

fdesign.pulseshaping() with the 'Square Root Raised Cosine'  shape.

See

>>doc fdesign.pulseshaping


Hope that helps,
Wayne

Thank you for your help.

How to use that function though.

I have I bits and Q bits. And I have plotted it. Now I need to use the Square root of raised cosine function to each of the plots. How should I use it with your function.
