NCO Megacore Phase Adjust

Hello I am using the Altera Megacore NCO Compiler and need to dinamically adjust the phase of the generated sine wave. The core has an input called phase_mod_i[] which is used for this purpos...

The steps for qpsk are:

get your data bits(0,1) as pairs

map pairs to two separate I,Q streams (as +1/-1)

shape the pulses but I assume this step is too much for Uni student so ignore it

multiply each of I,Q streams by cos/sin in a complex multiplier(mixer)

The output of multiplier will be the modulated qpsk (centerd on your chosen nco frequency)

The +1/-1 will simply invert or leave the phase of your cos/sin (0 or 180 degrees)

ok thx, now i have done approximately an schematic in simulink, but i don't sure on the first part on bit mapping and how "teach" at the NCO how change the phase...

However i attach my schematic...
