An algorithm to simulate impulsive noise

In this paper we describe a practical algorithm to generate impulsive noise according to how it appears in the baseband after demodulation in a communication process. This algorithm offers flexibility to vary the parameters that characterize impulsive noise by taking into account former researcher´s works. According to it, we also developed a program which generates impulsive noise sequences that can be added to baseband signals before being transmitted in order to test immunity of real or simulated communication systems against impulsive noise. When the received signal is demodulated, the practical results are the same as if the impulsive noise had been added from the communication channel.
