The purpose of the article is to analyze the combined effect of amplitude white Gaussian noise (AWGN) present in the communication channel and frequency noise (FN) resulting from fluctuations in the frequency of the signal in the communication channel on the probability of bit error when processing QAM signals. Research tasks to be solved: 1. Development of a mathematical model for processing the QAM signal, taking into account the combined effects of AWGN and FN in the communication channel. 2. Numerical study of the combined effect of AWGN and FN on the probability of bit error when processing QAM signals. A mathematical model is proposed that establishes the relationship between the signal-to-noise ratio in the channel and the mean square deviation of the signal frequency, on the one hand, and the probability of bit error during A mathematical model is proposed that establishes the relationship between the signal-to-noise ratio in the channel and the mean square deviation of the signal frequency, on the one hand, and the probability of bit error during QAM signal demodulation, on the other. The visualization of the effects associated with the presence of AWGN and FN in the channel on the signal constellation of the received QAM signal is given. The main patterns associated with joint action AWGN and FN in the communication channel are: - the appearance of FN in the communication channel leads to a decrease in the signal level in the channel during the correlation processing of the received signal and a corresponding decrease in SNR; - In addition to the blurring of the signal constellation in the azimuthal direction, associated with the appearance of an integral phase fluctuation due to frequency fluctuations during the pulse, an increase in the blurring of the signal constellation in the radial direction causes a decrease in the SNR. Based on the results obtained, it is concluded that it is necessary to take into account more fully the deviations of the signal parameters in the channel due to both the presence of AWGN and FN.
